Overview of Cotton Seed Meal
Cotton Seed Meal – Premium Animal Feed & Fertilizer
Cotton Seed Meal is a premium, plant-based protein source derived from the residue of cotton seeds after the oil extraction process. Recognized globally for its nutritional richness, versatility, and cost-effectiveness, cotton seed meal has become a key agricultural commodity in both the livestock feed and organic fertilizer industries.
Produced from carefully selected, high-quality cotton seeds, the meal is processed under strict hygiene and safety standards to ensure it retains maximum protein content, beneficial fiber, and essential minerals. The result is a nutrient-dense, stable, and reliable product that meets the demands of modern agriculture and animal husbandry.
A Natural Powerhouse of Nutrition
Cotton seed meal is particularly valued for its high protein content (typically between 36%–41%) and a balanced amino acid profile, making it an excellent alternative or complement to soybean meal in livestock feed formulations. It contains key amino acids such as lysine and methionine, vital for growth, reproduction, and overall animal health. The moderate fiber levels promote better digestion, especially in ruminants, while its mineral content supports bone strength, milk production, and metabolic functions.
All varieties available in organic also.

Role in Organic Agriculture
Beyond livestock feed, cotton seed meal serves as a slow-release, organic fertilizer for crops. Rich in nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, it steadily releases nutrients over time, improving soil fertility, promoting microbial activity, and enhancing plant health without the environmental risks associated with synthetic fertilizers.
This dual-use nature makes cotton seed meal a sustainable agricultural resource that contributes to circular farming practices—nothing goes to waste in the cotton industry.
Key Benefits
For Animal Feed:
- High Protein Source – Promotes rapid growth, improves milk yield, and enhances reproductive performance in cattle, sheep, goats, and poultry.
- Rich in Amino Acids – Particularly lysine and methionine, essential for animal health.
- Cost-Effective Alternative – More affordable than soybean meal while still delivering excellent nutritional value.
- Palatability – Naturally aromatic, encouraging feed intake in livestock.
- Balanced Nutrition – Contains essential minerals like calcium, phosphorus, and potassium.
For Organic Fertilizer:
- Nitrogen-Rich – Provides slow and steady nutrient release to crops.
- Improves Soil Structure – Increases organic matter, enhancing water retention and aeration.
- Eco-Friendly – 100% natural, free from harmful chemicals.
- Ideal for Organic Farming – Certified non-GMO and safe for all types of crops.
