USE OF CORN BRAN AS A BINDING AGENT IN FEED PELLETIZATION.
CO-PRODUCTS; PDI; MILK COW; PELLETS; FINE.
Corn bran is a co-product obtained from the germination stage of the grain, where the husk is removed and the corn germ is extracted, by sieving, which is corn to purify, reduce and extract all the possible bran. The present work will evaluate bovine the feasibility of using a corn product, generated and/or produced in the industry (mill), as a final binding agent for industrial pelletized feed (mill). For this purpose, a milk protein was selected in a bovine line, pelleted ration with 22% milk. Corn tariff levels will be included in the different formulation (5%; 7.5%; 10%; and 12.5%); to evaluate what would best represent the quality of the agglutination observation from the rural property level, and even the effect of transport by pellet to integral quality. The experiment will be carried out on the premises of the feed factory and on rural properties. Samples will be collected at three specific points: finished product silo; bulk scale output; and customer silo collecting 30 months, collecting in total 12 months.
