Claim 13:
14. A transgenic feedstuff produced by the process of claim 13, comprising harvested vegetative plant parts from said transgenic Sorghum species plant or said transgenic Zea mays plant, the vegetative plant parts being transgenic for at least (a) a first exogenous polynucleotide which encodes a plant Wrinkled 1 (WRI1) polypeptide operably linked to a heterologous promoter which is effective to direct expression of the first exogenous polynucleotide in the Sorghum species or Zea mays vegetative plant parts and increase the level of the WRI1 polypeptide relative to a corresponding wild type plant or part thereof, and (b) a second exogenous polynucleotide which encodes a plant diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT) polypeptide operably linked to a heterologous promoter which is effective to direct expression of the second exogenous polynucleotide in the Sorghum species or Zea mays vegetative plant parts and increase the level of the DGAT polypeptide relative to the corresponding wild type plant or part thereof, whereby the transgenic vegetative plant parts comprise a total fatty acid (TFA) content which comprises fatty acids esterified in the form of triacylglycerols (TAG) and fatty acids in the form of lipids other than TAG, wherein the transgenic vegetative plant parts comprise a TFA content of between 6% and 20% (w/w dry weight) and a TAG/TFA Quotient (TTQ) of between 0.01 and 0.60, and wherein
(i) the transgenic harvested plant parts are mixed with at least one other feed ingredient,
(ii) the transgenic harvested plant parts are baled after harvest,
(iii) the transgenic harvested plant parts are processed by chopping, cutting, drying, pressing or pelleting the plant parts, or
iv) the transgenic harvested plant parts are stored under conditions of reduced oxygen for a period of time until at least some of carbohydrates in the plant parts are fermented to organic acids.
