Research from these conference proceedings shows that canola meal often outperforms soybean meal in dairy diets. Canola meal:
- Supports higher milk production and better feed efficiency.
- Delivers essential amino acids like methionine and histidine.
- Provides more rumen-undegradable protein (RUP) and energy from fiber
- Works well across many diet types, including from high-forage to high-starch
These proceedings confirm canola meal is a cost-effective, flexible and high-performance choice in dairy & other ruminants nutrition.
