Application of palm kernel meal in pig feed
Application of palm kernel meal in pigs?
Palm kernel meal is a by-product of palm kernels after de-shelling and oil extraction. Its shape and color are similar to rapeseed meal, with a slight chocolate odor. Depending on the degree of de-shelling and processing technology, the quality of palm kernel meal varies greatly (similar to the cottonseed meal process). According to sampling and testing by the Feed Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, the nutritional composition is as follows: crude protein 16.20%, methionine 0.312%, crude fat 11.13%, lysine 0.528%, crude fiber 18.90%, threonine 0.526%, moisture 9.80%, cystine 0.228%, crude ash 4.68%, valine 0.84%; calcium 0.15%, histidine 0.264%, phosphorus 0.41%, arginine 2.064%, gross energy 17.15 MJ/kg, tryptophan 0.12%, nitrogen-free extract 64.8%, phenylalanine 0.624%.
What should be noted when using it in pig feed?
--------------------------------------
Palatability, plus the appearance of the feed..

--------------------------------------
Palm kernel meal has very high crude fiber, and the ash content is already high.
--------------------------------------
The crude fat content is high, prone to oxidative deterioration, affecting palatability. Also pay attention to product appearance and the balance of amino acids.
--------------------------------------
When used in the production of pelleted feed for pigs, add cellulase enzyme systems and B-mannanase.
--------------------------------------
You had better take a careful look at the fiber data; as I recall, this stuff has very high fiber.
--------------------------------------
Fiber content is around 17%, with NDF around 65%.
--------------------------------------
The crude fat content is high, prone to oxidative deterioration, affecting palatability.
--------------------------------------
Better not to use it, because we used it in duck feed here and found its pelletizing performance is too poor; the pellets are too crumbly and powdery, and even adding 6% flour did not improve it. Removing it made a big difference
