[QUOTE="LLBUX, post: 1492894, member: 24741"] I had a conversation last evening about adding soybean oil to a grain ration to add energy and reduce dust. The oil reduces chance of bloat as well. My vet asked if it was a rumen bypass fat, which stumped me. According to him, the soybean oil is degraded in the rumen and adds little to the energy in the ration. A powdered, dry fat goes through the rumen and is absorbed as energy later on in the digestive tract. It has been 40 years since my feeds class in college and nobody heard of rumen bypass or powdered fats back then :D IS soybean oil a waste of money in feeding cattle? [/QUOTE]
