Sunflower Meal – Natural Protein Source for Dairy and Poultry Feed

Product Overview

Sunflower Meal is a natural, plant-based protein source obtained after the extraction of oil from sunflower seeds (Helianthus annuus). Known for its high digestibility, balanced amino acid profile, and excellent fiber content, it serves as a valuable ingredient in the diets of ruminants, poultry, and aquaculture species. Its natural antioxidants, pigments, and residual oil enhance feed palatability and nutritional efficiency.

At Tuna Sourcing, we supply Premium Sunflower Meal produced under ISO 22000 and HACCP-certified facilities. Available in various protein levels (28%–36%), our product is GMO-free, solvent-extracted, or expeller-pressed, depending on customer requirements. Sourced from top sunflower-producing regions, it delivers stable nutrition, improved milk yield, and healthy animal growth, making it an eco-friendly and reliable protein alternative.
