During backgrounding, low-oil corn dried distillers’ grains plus solubles (LO-DDGS) resulted in higher dry matter intake (P = 0.002) and increased average daily gain (ADG; P = 0.03) in steers compared with medium-oil corn dried distillers’ grains with solubles (MO-DDGS). Inclusion of 20% corn dried distillers’ grains with solubles (DDGS) tended (P = 0.06) to increase ADG compared with 10% DDGS. During finishing, MO-DDGS improved (P = 0.03) feed efficiency compared with LO-DDGS.
