Palm Kernel
Expeller is a by-product of the mechanical extraction of oil from
the kernel of the oil palm fruitlets.
It is a natural and safe feed ingredient for
rumens and horses due to its low levels
of starch and sugar and is a good complementary feed to balance grain,
silage and molasses. PKE is an excellent source of oil and rumen
fermentable fibre and also serves as a good source of copper, phosphorous,
zinc and manganese as well as has a favourable phosphorous/calcium
ratio. Due to its oil content PKE also can be used as an energy
source in fish feeds.
