Cattle, like people, have
their favourite foods: One
food that's both good and
good for them is liquid
brewer's yeast. It satisfies
taste buds as well as farmers
production goals.
This surplus by-product of
breweries has traditionally
been dried for animal feeds
and the food industry. How-
ever, escalating drying costs
are prompting brewers to
find alternate uses for the
liquid form.
At the same time, animal
researchers are seeking alter-
nate protein supplements,
and the brewery by-product
has provided one answer.
Feeding trials conducted by
Dr. D.G. Grieve, Department
of Animal and Poultry
Science, University of
Guelph, indicate that liquid
brewer's yeast is palatable to
both dairy and beef cattle.
In the fresh state, the
yeast slurry contains 10 to 14
per cent dry matter of which
almost half is crude protein.
In one experiment with lac-
tating cows, liquid brewer's
yeast proved equal to soy-
bean meal as a protein
supplement. It maintained
yield composition and flavor

weighing 1250 lbs. sold for
77.50 with his lot of 11 steers
averaging 1216 lbs. selliiig

Seven steers consigned by
Bob Alexander of Ethel
averaging 1311 lbs. sold for
77.40 with his package of 14
steers averaging 1367 lbs.
selling for 76.70.
Eight steers consigned by
Johnston Bros. of R.R.4,
Wingham averaging 1169
lbs. sold for 77.00.
Eleven steers consigned
by Percy Dalton of Walton
averaging 1135 lbs. sold for
of milk while improving fiber
digestibility of the ration.
"Liquid brewer's yeast
has more potential for use by
beef operators than by dairy-
men because it easier to
handle in a feedlot system,"
says Dr. Grieve. "A 300 kg
(660 lb) steer would probably
consume 4.5 kg (10 lb) of
liquid brewer's yeast mixed
with 18 kg (40 lb) corn silage
each day."
To fit into practical farm
feeding situations, _ liquid
brewer's yeast must be
stored satisfactorily for at
least one to two weeks on the
farm. This is no problem for
most of the year, but when
stored at high summer tem-
peratures, some loss of nut-
rients occurs after one week.
Research is continuing on
preservative additives to pro-
long storage life.
To make hauling of liquid
brewer's yeast worthwhile,
brewery outlets must be
within 48 km (30 miles) of the
farm.
The Ontario Ministry of
Agriculture and Food partial-
ly funds the search for
efficient, yet inexpensive,
protein supplements.

the manure from the barn, through an

As the manure enters the storage area
from below, the outside surface forms a
crust, which retains the impor6nt
