Coconut Poonac

Description

Coconut poonac, also known as coconut meal or copra meal, is a byproduct of the coconut oil extraction process. It is obtained by drying and grinding the residual coconut flesh or copra after the oil has been extracted.

Coconut poonac is typically in the form of a coarse powder or meal, with a slightly gritty texture. It is rich in dietary fiber, protein, and essential nutrients, making it a valuable ingredient in animal feed and livestock diets.

Due to its high fiber content, coconut poonac aids in digestion and promotes gut health in animals. It also provides a good source of energy and essential fatty acids, contributing to overall animal nutrition and growth.

Coconut poonac is commonly used as a supplement in the diets of livestock such as poultry, pigs, cattle, and horses. It can be incorporated into feed formulations to enhance nutritional balance and support optimal animal health and productivity.

Overall, coconut poonac is a sustainable and nutritious feed ingredient derived from coconut processing, providing valuable dietary benefits for various types of livestock and animals.
