Soybean meal is an ingredient found in some dog food and cattle feeding. According to AAFCO is the product obtained by grinding the flakes which remain after removal of most of the oil from soybeans by a solvent or mechanical extraction process.
Soybean meal is a poor quality protein filler with almost 50% of the protein extracted. It boosts the protein content of low quality pet food and has a biologic value of less than 50% of chicken meal. It's more suited for feed in aquaculture, beef, dairy cattle, horses, poultry, sheep, and swine. [1]
