Copra meal is produced in the extraction of oil from coconuts. The coconut is manually harvested, the outer husk removed, and the white copra cut from within the shell. The copra is dried by direct or indirect drying. When the copra is dry, the oil is mechanical or solvent (hexane) extracted to yeild 30% copra meal. The residual meal is called copra cake or copra meal. High quality copra meal contains approx 20% protein, 8-10% oil.
Copra meal as an animal feed.
Stance pioneered the development of assured quality copra meal as a high quality feed for horses and cattle. Only high qulaity, mechanically expelled copra meal is used for animal feeds.
Copra cake/expeller/meal is used as an ingredient in blending animal feed, due to the presence of oil, protein and carbohydrates.
