Almost every type of plant processed for human food yields one or more by-products that can be utilized as feed by poultry and livestock. Very seldom do these products form the basis of the ration due to their variable nature and generally lower energy content. Products included in this group are by-products of the flour and baking industries and by-products of the brewing and distilling industries. 1, record 3, English, - plant%20by%2Dproduct

La plupart des végétaux transformés en aliments destinés aux humains produisent un ou plusieurs dérivés que l'on peut utiliser pour nourrir la volaille et le bétail. Ces dérivés servent rarement d'aliments de base, en raison de leur nature variable et, en général, de leur faible valeur énergétique. Parmi les produits inclus dans ce groupe se trouvent les sous-produits des industries de la farine et de la boulangerie, ainsi que ceux des brasseries et des distilleries. 1, record 3, French, - produits%20v%C3%A9g%C3%A9taux%20d%C3%A9riv%C3%A9s
