Always Get the Good Stuff
After nearly four decades producing feed, we’ve mastered our craft. With POET, you can count on superior quality, consistency, and easy access to a variety of products to meet your feed ingredient needs — so you can expect the best and forget the rest.
From the time the corn is delivered at a POET bioprocessing facility to the time we ship our products out, we sample and test at mutiple points throughout the process. We often say we’re never satisfied with “good enough,” so we also have an industry-leading mycotoxin evaluation program and a world-class research team in-house to ensure our products always meet the highest standards.
Simply put, you’ll know precisely what you’re getting, and you’ll know it’s good — every time.
Corn Fermented Protein
Producers who want the highest quality in high-protein feed use POET Corn Fermented Protein. Formerly known as NexPro, this is a next-generation protein ingredient derived from the dry-mill bioethanol production process. As a 50% percent protein product, corn fermented protein is highly digestible and has excellent energy values, delivering key nutrients ideal for a variety of pet food, aquaculture, swine, poultry, and dairy feed applications.
Our consistent product quality offers a great amino acid profile, providing a good source of lysine and methionine. We utilize a patented process tested in operation for more than five years, and corn fermented protein is a cost-competitive alternative to other high-protein ingredients.
Advantages
- Improved amino acid profile compared to other corn-based alternatives
- Valued ingredient for nursery feeds
- More efficient utilization of protein in ruminant diets
- Excellent source of lysine & methionine
FSSC Certified
Going beyond POET’s robust internal checks and controls, our teams at POET Bioprocessing – Shell Rock and POET Bioprocessing – Fairmont, where corn fermented protein is produced, continue to be industry leaders with their receipt of FSSC 22000 certification. These are the first dry-grind bioethanol producers to achieve this food safety certification for our animal food ingredients! For more information, visit fssc.com.

Dried Distillers Grains
We didn’t invent DDGS — but we did put them on the map.
No one has more experience developing a premier dried distillers grain with solubles than POET. For nearly four decades, ongoing research and development has kept POET as the industry leader for quality and consistency.
POET Dried Distillers Grains with Solubles provide uniform particle size and flowability to maximize performance and utilization. Our distillers grains are recognized as a highly palatable, digestible, safe, and cost-effective feed for a wide variety of animals.
Advantages
- Highly digestible source of key nutrients
- Lowers cost of production for swine, poultry and dairy
- Optimizes milk production in dairy cattle
- Increases feed efficiency in beef cattle
- Enhance yolk color in eggs
Dried Distillers Grains provide a consistent, flowable, high quality product, backed by the research and innovation of POET—a leader in bioprocessing technology. Our distillers grains are recognized as a highly digestible, safe and cost effective feed option for swine, dairy, beef, poultry and even aquaculture.

Wet Distillers Grains
Our wet distillers grains feature uniform particle size, high palatability, and high nutrient value proven to maximize feed utilization and performance. This valuable feed source is also often lower in cost than traditional distillers grains and an excellent solution for ruminant operations within truck delivery areas.
Advantages
- Approximately 65% moisture
- Safe, economic source of key nutrients
- Extends life of hay and other forages
- Helps feed rations stick together and locks in layers of nutrients

Modified Distillers Grains
POET Modified Distillers Grains offer a pound-for-pound balance in benefits for both dry and wet products.
Our modified distillers grains contain about 48% dry matter and are an ideal way to provide a well-rounded nutritional base while reducing your feed costs. Less drying time means more moisture to lock in layers of nutrients and help rations stick together, creating a cake-like texture.
Advantages
- 48% dry matter
- Our network ensures a consistent product and guaranteed supply
- Helps feed rations stick together and locks in layers of nutrients
- Savings on freight costs

Syrup
POET Corn Condensed Distillers Soluble, traditionally referred to as “syrup,” is a safe, economical liquid feed ingredient source known for quality and consistency. Like our other
products, it is produced as a result of our bioethanol production process.
In addition to excellent nutritional qualities, syrup is a highly palatable, economical liquid feed ingredient predominantly used in ruminant diets. Commonly mixed in the total mixed ration (TMR) or blended with low-quality forages, it provides a unique blend of highly digestible protein, energy, and key minerals. This highly attractive liquid feed ingredient pays dividends in animal performance and ration cost.
Advantages
- Excellent source of highly digestible protein and energy
- Best results when used in total mixed rations (TMR)

Pellets & Cubes
For easy handling, reduced waste, and all the quality you can count on from a POET feed product, POET Pellets and Cubes are an alternative form of our classic dried distillers grains with solubles.
The traditional loose form of our distillers grains is pressed into a pellet or cube form. This process ensures uniform size, decreased shrinkage, and superior handling with better flowability, all while increasing feed efficiency. We offer two sizes to meet your needs: ¼” pellets and ¾” cubes.
Our pellets and cubes are produced at POET Bioprocessing – Mitchell in South Dakota, right in the heart of cattle country. However, as with our other feed options, we have a number of options to reach you locally, throughout the U.S., or even across the globe.
Advantages
- Available in both ¼" pellet and ¾" cube
- 38% less shrink compared to loose distillers grains
- POET distillers grains yield a dense, durable pellet with better flowability
- Also an excellent feed source for bison, sheep, goats, horses, deer, and elk

Distillers Corn Oil
POET Distillers Corn Oil (DCO) is an excellent feedstock for poultry and swine diets. DCO is obtained through the distillation of corn-based ethanol and contains a rich blend of essential fatty acids, making it a beneficial component for enhancing animal nutrition and overall health. Its inclusion in animal diets can contribute to improved growth, production, and overall wellbeing while supporting sustainable agricultural practices.
Beyond its use for feed purposes, it can also be used in the production of biodiesel, inks, paints, primers, soaps, and many other applications that require high-quality, consistent oil sources.
