Description
Soybean meal is the product remaining after extracting most of the oil from whole soybeans. The oil may be removed by solvent extraction or by an expeller process in which the beans are heated and squeezed. The nutrient composition of the oil extracted soybean meal 48 is shown in the table below.
Soybean meal is high in protein and energy and is one of the most commonly used protein supplements. It is a palatable feed stuff and may be used as the major protein supplement in rations for dairy cattle.

Soybean meal is a protein-rich byproduct of the soybean oil extraction process, widely used as a valuable animal feed ingredient. After soybeans are crushed to extract their oil, the remaining soybean meal is ground into a fine powder, resulting in a nutrient-dense product. It is a vital source of protein, containing essential amino acids, making it a popular choice for livestock and poultry feed to support their growth and overall health. Soybean meal is prized for its versatility and affordability in the animal feed industry and plays a crucial role in meeting the protein needs of livestock, including chickens, pigs, cattle, and aquaculture species.
Soybean meal is made by processing soybeans through a series of steps that includes: Cleaning and dehulling: The soybeans are cleaned and their hulls are removed. Cracking: The soybeans are cracked into smaller pieces. Heating: The soybeans are heated or steamed. Flaking: The soybeans are flaked to break open the oil cells. Extracting: The oil is extracted from the flakes using solvents like hexane. Drying and toasting: The extracted flakes are dried and toasted. Grinding: The flakes are ground into meal
