India produces about 16 million tonnes of protein meal annually, mainly soya bean meal (39%) and mustard meal (22%). This represents 6.2% of world production.
In cattle feed, in addition to these meals, others such as cottonseed and copra are used as premium ingredients. Cottonseed cake and meal are often used in cattle feed throughout the country.
Rapeseed meal is second to soybean meal in production and second to cottonseed cake and meal for cattle feed. Sunflower meal is commonly used in both cattle and poultry feed. India is the fourth-largest meal exporter in the world, with a 5% market share.
We mainly trade in cotton seed oil-de-oil cakes and rapeseed oil-de-oil cakes.
