Buttermilk Value for Swine Feeding
Buttermilk has the same feeding value as skim milk when fed to swine and is valued against corn. One hundred pounds of undiluted buttermilk equal half a bushel of corn, so at a $1 per bushel corn price, buttermilk is worth 50 cents per hundred pounds for feed. The equivalence holds only if buttermilk is not fed in excess of three pounds per one pound of grain.
