Laucke Mills Soyabean Meal 20kg – High-Protein Soybean Meal Animal Feed for Poultry, Pigs, Cattle and Horses

High-Protein Soybean Meal from Laucke Mills

Laucke Mills Soyabean Meal is a high-protein soybean meal for use as a feed ingredient for poultry, pigs, horses, cattle and other ruminants. It is produced by extracting the oil from soybeans using a solvent extraction process, leaving a protein-rich meal that supplies all the essential amino acids animals need for growth, production and condition. Supplied by Laucke Mills, quality feed millers and animal nutrition specialists, it comes in 4kg and 20kg bags for backyard keepers, farms and studs who mix their own rations.

Why Soya Bean Meal Is a Go-To Protein Source

Soya bean meal is one of the most widely used protein ingredients in animal nutrition, and for good reason. It has a high protein content, typically in the mid-40s percent for solvent-extracted meal, and a well-balanced amino acid profile, including lysine, which many grain-based diets are short on. Because it lifts protein quality as well as quantity, a small amount added to a home-mixed ration can make a real difference to growth, egg production, milk output and condition. It also provides a reasonable source of energy.

Soybean Meal for Poultry Feed

For chickens, ducks and other poultry, soybean meal is a common protein base in layer, grower and meat bird rations. Adding soybean meal for poultry feed helps support egg production, feather growth and steady development, especially when birds are fed mostly on grains or scraps. It works best as part of a balanced mix with grains, calcium sources and vitamins and minerals, rather than fed on its own.

Soybean Meal for Cattle, Pigs and Horses

Soybean meal for cattle and other ruminants is used to top up protein when pasture or hay is low in quality, supporting growth, milk production and condition. Pig producers use it as a key protein source for growing and breeding pigs, and horse owners add it in small amounts to lift the protein in a feed for young, working or breeding horses. In each case, it is a protein supplement within a ration rather than a complete diet.

Using Soybean Meal in Animal Feed

Soybean meal is a concentrated protein source, so it is mixed into a ration rather than fed alone. The right amount depends on the animal, its age and stage of production, and what else is in the diet, so follow a formulated recipe or advice from an animal nutritionist or vet when mixing your own feed. Introduce any change to a ration gradually over a week or so to avoid digestive upsets. Always provide clean, fresh water. Store the bag sealed in a cool, dry place off the ground, away from moisture and vermin, to keep the soybean meal feed fresh.
