Description
What it is. By-product obtained from cleaned whole quinoa seeds (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.), after removal of the saponin contained in the hull. It is a feed material listed under the "cereal grains" chapter of the feed materials catalogue.
What it is for. This type of meal would generally be used as a source of protein and energy in compound feed for various species. It could find a place in formulation as a partial alternative to other protein sources, depending on local availability. Its use requires prior knowledge of its actual composition, not specified here.
Points to watch. No maximum content or dosage is provided in the available sources; inclusion levels must be determined case by case by the formulator. Compositional variability depending on the extraction process and the efficiency of saponin removal are points of attention, as are storage conditions suited to residual fat content.
