Overview
Cotton Seed Oil Cake, also referred to as cottonseed meal, is a protein-rich byproduct derived from the cottonseed oil extraction process. This solid feed ingredient is processed from the residual cottonseed material and serves as a valuable component in livestock nutrition.

High Protein Livestock Feed
With a crude protein content ranging between 40–45%, cottonseed oil cake effectively supports muscle development and overall weight gain in cattle and ruminants. It provides a strong alternative to other protein sources such as soybean meal.

Energy and Nutritional Benefits
In addition to protein, the cake contains 2–4% fat, delivering an efficient energy source to sustain animal activity and productivity. It also contributes vital minerals, including calcium, phosphorus, and potassium, which are essential for bone strength, muscle function, and metabolic health.

Processed for Safety
Cottonseed naturally contains gossypol, a compound that can be toxic if not properly removed. This feed product is treated to minimize gossypol content, ensuring safety when included in ruminant diets. Its use in monogastric animals like pigs and poultry should be limited unless gossypol is adequately reduced.

Cost-Effective & Sustainable Choice
Cotton Seed Oil Cake offers a sustainable and economical feed solution for livestock farmers. Its wide availability and nutritional density make it a practical choice for enhancing feed efficiency and promoting healthier livestock growth in both small and large farming operations.
