Soybean meal is the most important protein source used to feed farm animals. While it has been an accepted part of livestock and poultry diets the demand for this high-quality source of protein is high.

Soybean meal is the by-product of the extraction of soybean oil. Several processes exist, resulting in different products. Soybean meal is usually classified for marketing by its crude protein content. High-protein types are obtained from dehulled seeds and contain 47-49% protein and 3% crude fiber (as fed basis). Other types of soybean meal include the hulls or part of the hulls and contain less than 47% protein and more than 6% crude fiber.

Amino acid digestibility is also very high (more than 90% for lysine in pigs and poultry. Suitable for all livestock.
