ATTD of GE, %	49.6	45.1	2.9	0.297
As-fed basis, kcal/kg
DE	1,941	1,755	114	0.268
ME	1,893	1,662	127	0.219
NEb	1,020	841	92	0.192
DM basis, kcal/kg DM
DE	2,086	1,909	123	0.328
ME	2,034	1,808	137	0.262
NE2	1,095	915	99	0.221

^aEach least squares mean represents eight observations.

^bNet energy in nonextruded and extruded soybean hulls was predicted from ME and analyzed nutrient composition (Noblet et al., 1994).
