Corn Husk
Corn Husk for animal feed, supplied from audited Chinese mills with a full specification and certificate of analysis on enquiry.
About this ingredient
Corn husk is the fibrous outer covering of the maize ear, dried and milled for feed use. It is a straightforward roughage source, used where a ration needs structural fibre and chew time rather than nutrients.
Like all light fibrous materials it loads by volume rather than weight, so confirm the container rate before costing a shipment.
Where it is used
- Ruminant rations, as a roughage source
- Total mixed rations, for physical structure
- Carrier and diluent in compound feed
Formulation note
Corn husk is a roughage and structural fibre, so value it on fibre and cost per tonne rather than nutrients. Confirm the container loading weight before comparing landed cost, because light fibre loads by volume.

Frequently asked questions
What is corn husk used for in animal feed?
It is used as a roughage source in ruminant rations and as a structural fibre or carrier in compound feed.
How much corn husk fits in a container?
Because it is light and bulky, a container fills by volume before reaching full weight. The exact tonnage depends on grind and packing, so we confirm it with each quote.
Does corn husk contain protein?
Only a small amount. It is valued for fibre and physical structure rather than protein or energy.
