[USCC] Distillers Grain

[KPowell@kdhe.state.ks.us]

Good Afternoon Compost Gurus,

We had three trains try to use the same track over the weekend and now have
a mess.  The mess consists of distillers grain, oranges, limes, and
carrots.  Does anyone have a lab analysis of distillers grain so we can
make a mix with woodchips and sawdust that won't stink too bad?  The
On-Farm Composting Handbook has data for the other items and I have at
least two compost calculators to use, but really need help with the
distillers grain.

Thanks for the help,
