Groundnut meal, also known as peanut meal or peanut cake, is a by-product obtained after the extraction of oil from peanuts (groundnuts). It is a valuable ingredient used in animal feed formulations due to its nutritional profile and affordability.
At Rudra International, we offer high-quality groundnut meal for various animal feed applications.
Key Features of Groundnut Meal:
1. Nutritional Composition: Groundnut meal is rich in protein, making it an excellent source of plant-based protein for animal diets. It typically contains around 40-50% protein, along with varying amounts of fiber, fat, carbohydrates, and minerals. The exact composition may vary based on factors such as the extraction process and quality of peanuts used.
2. Protein Quality: Groundnut meal provides essential amino acids necessary for animal growth and development. It is a good source of lysine, an essential amino acid often limited in plant-based feed ingredients. The protein in groundnut meal has good digestibility and can contribute to the overall protein requirements of animals.
3. Energy Source: Groundnut meal also serves as a source of energy due to its carbohydrate and fat content. It can provide a moderate amount of calories to support animal energy needs.
4. Palatability and Digestibility: Groundnut meal is generally well-accepted by animals and has good digestibility, making it a valuable component in animal feed formulations.
5. Usage in Animal Feed: Groundnut meal is commonly used in poultry, swine, and cattle feed formulations. It is included in rations to supplement protein requirements and improve overall feed quality. Groundnut meal can be incorporated into complete feeds, concentrates, or mixed with other feed ingredients.
6. Packaging Options: We offer groundnut meal in various packaging options to suit the specific needs of our customers. Common packaging options include bags, sacks, or bulk shipments.
7. Quality Assurance: At Rudra International, we prioritize the quality of our groundnut meal. Our sourcing process involves selecting reliable suppliers and conducting quality checks to ensure that the product meets our stringent standards.
