520			_aThis study evaluates pig and poultry feed cost and composition effects from including quality protein maize (QPM) as an alternative energy and protein source. Cost savings could be as high as 3.4% (about $5/ton) for pig feed, with QPM constituting about 80% of the ration and replacing all regular maize and synthetic lysine and 40% of soybean meal. Savings are slightly lower for poultry feed. However, if a 5% price premium for QPM over regular maize is assumed most of the savings are lost, indicating that QPM should compete at the same price to be economically attractive as a commercial feedstuff.
