The high variation of feed values of DDGS emphasise the need for simple and accurate tools to predict the protein value on the basis of chemical analyses. Therefore, the aim of this study was to predict protein values of DDGS for ruminants based on nutrient profiles and crude protein (CP) fractions.</span></span></p>
