Humeston, IA
On a dry matter basis, DDGS has about 0.8% phosphorus and 1.0% potassium. At 31% protein, that's about 5% nitrogen as well. The wet DGS is about 70% water, so per ton, you'd have about 30 lbs N, 4.8 lbs P, and 6 lbs K. I guess at 5 tons/ac you could have 150 lbs N, 24 lbs P and 30 lbs K. Hmmm, at $10/ton, that's not a bad deal, except for the spreading and the mess. But, deals like that wouldn't come along very often (usually would be $40-50/ton).
