What soybean meal is
Soybean meal is what remains after the oil has been extracted from soybeans. It is the world’s main protein ingredient for animal feed, used in rations for poultry, pigs, dairy and beef cattle and fish. Its value depends mainly on its protein content, so the protein percentage is the first figure on any soybean meal contract.
Typical specifications
The trading rules of the US National Oilseed Processors Association (NOPA), widely used as a reference, give these typical soybean meal specifications:
| Parameter | Typical specification |
|---|---|
| Protein | 44.0% to 49.0% |
| Fat | 0.5% |
| Fibre | max. 3.5% |
| Moisture | max. 12.0% |
As NOPA notes, specifications can be changed by agreement between buyer and seller. Our offers state the protein, moisture, fibre and fat of each lot, and SGS confirms them before loading. Feed buyers often also specify urease activity, which shows whether the meal has been heat-treated correctly.
Non-GMO
Our soybean meal is non-GMO, which matters to feed buyers supplying non-GMO meat, milk and egg programmes. You can have the GMO status of a lot confirmed by an independent PCR test at inspection.
Inspect before you pay
