Protein Meal
Protein meals are used as a food
supplement in stock feed rations for cattle, pigs and
poultry.
They are used for their protein, fibre, amino acids and
available energy in the way of fat (oil).
Protein meal is the bi-product of the vegetable oil
production process and is what is left after the oil has
been extracted from the seed.
There are two oil extraction processes used for
vegetable oil – mechanical pressing methods and chemical
solvent (hexane) methods. The extraction method will
impact on the oil (fat), protein and fibre percentages
of the meal.
Adams Australia trades in:
* Sunflower Meal;
* Safflower Meal;
* Canola Meal;
* Full Fat Soybean Meal;
High Oleic (mono-unsaturated) and Linoleic (ploy-unsaturated)
are both available. Sunflower meal is often favoured for
having no recognised anti-nutritional factors.

This type of soybean meal has not had the oil (fat)
extracted. It has been heat treated to minimise the
urease level. It is not solvent treated.
Full fat soybean meal is one of the most extensively
used vegetable protein meals. The amino acid profile
found in soybean meal is favorable for digestion and
combined with other feed components provides for a
balanced diet. Organic soybean meal is heat treated to
remove issues with urease. It is available for both
domestic and international users.
