Distiller’s Grains
Ethanol plants play a key role in supplying distillers grains to the livestock industry by converting corn into renewable fuel and producing high-protein feed co-products in the process. Distillers grains, available in wet (WDG), modified (MDG), and dried (DDGS) forms, are marketed directly by ethanol plants to cattle feeders, dairies, hog producers, and feed distributors. These products are valued for their high energy, protein, and digestible fiber content, often providing a cost-effective alternative to traditional feed ingredients. Proximity to ethanol plants can significantly reduce transportation costs, making distillers grains an attractive local feed source, while long-term supply contracts and spot pricing options allow producers flexibility in managing feed needs amid changing grain and energy markets. Many of the plantes listed offer distiller’s grain. contact then diretly for more information. 2026 Outlook.
