Research suggests that high moisture distillers grains, as well as corn gluten feed, have a higher energy value per unit of dry matter than distillers dried grains. This effect is unknown for modified or partially dried distillers grains, as well as for other classes of cattle, such as wintering cows. Moisture also may affect economics negatively by increasing storage and handling costs, and storage losses. These factors need to be accounted for when establishing the value of high moisture or difficult handling coproducts.
