Sunflower meal is a by-product of the oil extraction of sunflower seeds.
Sunflower meal, which is considered the most important oil meal after soybean, rapeseed and cottonseed, can be pelleted for easy handling, storage and transportation by adding suitable binders.
It is an important nutrient especially for dairy and beef cattle as a source of protein, energy and cellulose.
It is valuable for feeding ruminants as well as rabbits and poultry.
Sunflower meal can have a protein content of 25% to 44%, depending on the production process.
