Lupins Cracked 20kg

White lupins are throughout the world both for their seeds used in feed and food, and for forage. Lupin seeds can be an alternative to soybean in all livestock species due to their high content in good quality protein (in the 30-40% range). Lupins also contribute to the sustainability of cropping systems. White and yellow lupin seeds provide higher protein than blue lupin seeds, which may be of importance when lupins are used to feed animals.

White lupin seed is rich in protein (30-40% as fed) and richer in fat (about 8-9% as fed) than pea and fava bean. It is richer in protein than blue lupin but poorer than yellow lupin. It is richer in fat than both species. Lupins have unique carbohydrate properties characterized by small levels of starch, high levels of soluble and insoluble NSP, and high levels of raffinose oligosaccharides, all of which can affect the utilization of energy and the digestion of other nutrients in the diet. Suitable for all livestock.
