Compare food values to corn for best c
COMPARATIVE FEED VALUES
All animals, including humans, eat for
two reasons. First to satisfy the hunger
pains and second to obtain nutrients to
stay alive.
When protein sources are high priced we
see a shift in the dollar value of protein
rich feeds based on their feeding value.
When 44% soybean oil meal costs 2.65
times as much as corn, the relationship of
the following feeds can be expressed as a
percentage of the value of corn - corn
100%; good hay 95%; fair hay 78%; corn
silage 19%; barley 110%; oats 105%; dried
distillers 163%; dried brewers 155%.
For example when corn is selling for
$140/tonne good hay would be worth 95% of
$140 which. is'$133.
