These feeds are made up because they are concentrated in one of the food groups and are mixed in when formulating the rations to make the ration balanced for that type of animal. If it's a protein supplement for cattle rations they are looking for feed materials that are very high in protein to mix in with other feedstuffs for abalanced ration. A common product would be Soybeanmeal, as it is 44 percent protein, and they are mixing it with corn (9 percent) to end up with a 12 - 14 percent ration. The supplement -soybean meal, is made from soybeans, that are processed. They are steamed, crushed, mashed, oil removed (extruded),dried & ground into a meal concistancy. There's a large plant (ADM) where that's done in Decatur, ILL.
