Soybean meal
Soybean meal also known as soyabean oil cake is a solid residue by-product, flour, created after grinding the soybean to extract soybean oil. It is widely used as a filler and source of protein in animal diets, including pig, chicken, cattle, horse, sheep, and fish feed.[1]
Soybean meal is ideally made from high-quality, clean, and dehulled yellow beans, since beans with a dark seed coat, or even beans with a dark hilum, inadvertently leave undesirable dark specks in the flour. Commercial soybeans in the United States are yellow or yellow brown.
