soyabean meal

[Muhammad Ahmad]

Soybean meal is generally considered a more sustainable source of protein compared to fish meal. It is plant-based, widely available, and has a lower environmental impact when produced responsibly. In contrast, fish meal, while high in quality protein, raises sustainability concerns due to overfishing and pressure on marine ecosystems. However, fish meal has better amino acid profiles and digestibility. A balanced approach may involve using soybean as the primary protein source while supplementing with fish meal or alternatives like insect meal to meet nutritional needs sustainably.Comment/Reply:

Soyabean contains high well-balanced crude protein and is more sustainable than fish meal, so considered as a suitable substitution for protein ingredient

[Nurudeen Kareem]

Both Soybean and Fish meals are good protein feed supplement because they contain 20 essential amino acid like lysine, Methionine, Valine phenylalanine, Tryptophan, glycine Threonine,etc which are indicators of of protein Biological value(PBV).Though crude protein content in Fish meal(65-72%CP) is considerably higher than the value of(38-48%CP) in Soybean meal.

However, Soybean meal is more sustainable than Fish meal because is readily available,low level of impurities and cheaper to use.

Soybean is more sustainable than fish meal because it contains well balanced crude protein
