Advocates Wheat as Substitute for Corn in Hog Ration
Pros say wheat can replace corn in hog feed profitably if price remains near current levels and only costs 10 to 12 cents more per bushel. Walcher at Ohio State notes wheat yields 6 to 8 percent more energy than shelled corn and can fully substitute for corn with a protein supplement. Grinding or crushing is advised, soaking offers slight gains, and wheat's higher protein balance reduces needed tankage compared to corn.
