Cottonseed Meal

Cottonseed Meal – Balanced Protein and Fiber Source for Livestock Feed

Product Overview

Cottonseed Meal is a protein-rich by-product obtained from the extraction of oil from cotton seeds (Gossypium spp.). With a balanced combination of crude protein, fiber, and residual oil, it provides an excellent energy and amino acid profile for cattle, dairy, and ruminant feed. Naturally containing gossypol in low concentrations, Cottonseed Meal promotes steady weight gain, enhances milk fat content, and improves overall feed efficiency when properly balanced in rations.

At Tuna Sourcing, we supply High-Quality Cottonseed Meal sourced from reliable producers operating under ISO 22000 Food Safety Management standards. Available in both expeller-pressed and solvent-extracted forms, our Cottonseed Meal is suitable for use in cattle, sheep, goat, and poultry feeds. It offers consistent nutrient composition and traceability, supporting sustainable livestock nutrition programs.
