Animal performance and meat quality characteristics from feedlot-finished steers fed increasing levels of wet distillers grain
One hundred forty-four steers were group-housed in 24 pens that were randomly assigned to one of four dietary treatments defined by the proportion of wet distiller grain plus solubles (WDGS; 0, 15, 30, or 45%) and fed for 84 d pre-slaughter.
