Abstract

Oats produced in India are used almost exclusively as feed and are highly prized as such, specially for poultry and for certain classes of livestock. Oats possess a pronounced advantage over other cereals, being high in fat content. In Western countries, milled oats are used in different forms of breakfast foods, which are high in protein, minerals and energy value. Brown et al studied the variation in oil content in spring and winter oats. Morgan and others concluded that variation in oil content of oats is more than that of barley. These differences in the composition of grain, could have a considerable effect on the composition of concentrate mixtures based on them and could under some circumstances account for departures from the expected composition of such mixtures.
