De-Hulled Beans

dehull

Our only “specific” Animal Feed Process is taking beans in that are not suitable for Human Consumption and De-Hulling them for the aquaculture industry. Due to the nature of the De-Hulling process a certain amount of splitting also occurs.

The main criteria on intake for these is moisture with a maximum of 15.5% being allowed at intake; ideally however, they should be as dry as possible. They are used as part of a ration that is key in keeping fish healthy and providing optimal fish growth. Again the main benefit of using beans is their high levels of protein (the skin is high in fibre, hence why it is removed). They also, once ground and blended with the other ingredients, act as an excellent binder.
