Lupin Meal as Soybean Meal Replacer in Mixed Feeds with Barley or Rye for Swine

Replacing Conventionally Processed Soybean Meal with Extruded/Expelled Soybean Meal in Swine Diets

Selecting soybean meal characteristics preferred for swine nutrition.

As environmental constraints become more important issues for the animal industry, selecting feed ingredients that yield good animal performance but also minimize environmental impact of animal production becomes critical. The objective of this research was to identify which compositional features would be desirable for soybean meal to maximize nutritional value and minimize animal waste. Eight...

Using Extruded-Expelled Soybean Meal in Swine Diets

Jason Woodworth, Graduate Research Assistant Extrusion processing is an effective means of improving the nutritional value of whole soybeans fed to swine. Recently, Insta-Pro International has combined extrusion technology with expelling, an oil extraction process, to produce an extruded-expelled soybean meal (Insta-Pro ExpressTM extruder/press system). The resulting soybean meal contains sligh...

Effects of Supplementing Xylose‐Treated Soybean Meal or Untreated Corn Gluten Meal to Lactating Dairy Cows

This experiment was performed to investigate whether feeding xylose-treated soybean meal (XSBM) or corn gluten meal (CGM) is economically better under field conditions. Ninety-four multiparous early lactating Holstein cows (55±5 days in milk and 2.82±0.41 body condition score) were used in a completely randomized design. Cows were randomly assigned to one of two treatments: XSBM or CGM as the m...

In situ Evaluation of Ruminal Degradability and Intestinal Digestibility of Sunflower Meal Compared to Soybean Meal

The aim of this study was to compare the nutritional value of sunflower meal (SFM) and soybean meal (SBM) protein by determining both its ruminal degradability and intestinal digestibility. Three non lactating Jersey cows fitted with a rumen and T-type duodenal cannulas were used to estimate rumen degradability and intestinal digestibility of SFM and SBM dry matter (DM) and crude protein (CP). ...
