Rapeseed Meal
Rapeseed meal is a product of rapeseed processing that remains after the production of rapeseed oil. One of the distinctive features of rapeseed processing is the low level of waste. During the processing of rapeseed seeds, pressing is carried out to extract the oil. The dry residue left after this process is further processed to produce rapeseed meal, which is a valuable type of animal feed for agricultural animals. The "OmskOil" plant offers this product in 900 kg big bags or in bulk (by rail or road transport).Due to its high protein content, rapeseed meal is an excellent choice for feeding livestock. It helps animals gain weight, supports their health, and aids in their growth. Its affordability compared to other animal feeding methods saves costs, resulting in greater profitability for livestock farms.
Rapeseed meal has high energy value. In terms of composition, it is rich in vitamin E, iron, calcium, selenium, phosphorus, as well as methionine and other sulfur-containing amino acids. Due to the residual oil content in the meal, it contains raw oils, making it rich in fatty acids and phospholipids. Therefore, when using rapeseed meal, it is possible to minimize or even eliminate the need for additional vegetable oil supplementation in the diet of agricultural animals.
On average, rapeseed meal contains 40-45% protein, and its digestibility can reach up to 80%.
Rapeseed meal is used for various types of agricultural animals, including cattle (especially dairy cows and breeders), horses, pigs, rabbits, and poultry.
The specific cost per gram of protein in rapeseed meal is lower than in other types of meal, such as sunflower meal. The application of rapeseed meal in animal feeding is not limited and continues to expand.
