POET's technical nutrition director Kevin Herrick analyzed third-party lab data on protein, fiber and fat variability across common feed ingredients. He found notable variation in DDGS, wet brewers grains, corn gluten feed and soybean meal, and showed that sourcing from a single consistent supplier reduces that variability.
The analysis covers POET biorefinery samples from January to November 2023.
Nutrient variability affects how precisely feed formulators can rely on DDGS, which can push buyers toward consistent suppliers. The article is about quality management rather than a supply or price shift, so the direct price impact is minimal.
