Frequently Asked Questions
Is Cotton Meal safe for all animals?
Cotton Meal is a good protein source for ruminants (cattle, goats, sheep) since gossypol is broken down in the rumen. It is a limiting factor for poultry and young pigs, so inclusion rates should be kept low or avoided for these species.
What is gossypol and why does it matter?
Gossypol is a naturally occurring compound in cottonseed that can be toxic at high levels in monogastric animals like poultry and young pigs. Ruminants tolerate it well due to rumen microbial breakdown.
