Solvent extracted sunflower meal will have a protein percentage around 41% if dehulled, and around 28% if hulls are left on the seed. Fat content of solvent extracted meal is roughly 1%, and roughly 9% in mechanically pressed seed meal. A good source of information on the various types of sunflower meal and their feed values for various animals is the publication “Sunflower Meal Use in Livestock Rations,” available from the National Sunflower Association (phone 888-718-7033). Regardless of the method of sunflower meal manufacture, the meal can serve as the sole source of supplemental protein in diets for beef or dairy cattle.
