ExPress® Soy Meal

What is ExPress® Soy Meal?

Soybeans consumed by livestock and poultry animals worldwide are processed through solvent or mechanical extraction then converted to soybean meal. Compared to solvent extracted soybean meal, ExPress® soy meal contains highly digestible protein, energy. Because of the chemical-free, mechanical process, ExPress® soy meal has lecithin and natural antioxidant tocopherols. ExPress® soy meal has higher residual oil and higher amino acid digestibility that allows greater flexibility in feed formulation. As an ingredient, it is highly likely that no additional fat or oil source is required in a dietary formulation when ExPress® soy meal is used, but not guaranteed. This is the typical ingredient composition, and nutrient levels will vary naturally:
