"Organic Certified Copra Cake or Copra Meal" - Coconut oil is extracted by grating or grinding the
copra to produce the coconut oil - the by-product or solid residue is known as Copra Cake or
Copra Meal.
Copra Cake or Copra Meal is also used as fodder for horses, cattle, and other animals. Its high oil
levels and protein are very fattening for stock and it is popular among the horse enthusiasts. The
copra meal has unique benefits for the animals. The protein in copra meal has been heat treated
and provides a source of high quality bypass protein for cattle, sheep and deer.
Copra Meal has the advantage of being a highly palatable carrier and 'taste masker' for carrying
anionic salts which are bitter tasting - Copra supplies magnesium, phosphorus and calcium among
other vital trace minerals and vitamins.
There are three key attributes contained within Copra Meal:
Firstly, the bypass protein level ensures that the valuable protein level contained within Copra is
not degraded in the rumen but is absorbed further down the digestive tract to maximum effect.
Secondly, the energy supplied via Copra is from its high oil content rather than starch as in most
other grains (barley, whole crop silage). This oil is 'low heating' eliminating Acidosis type metabolic
problems occurring where the excessive build up of acid in the gut extends into the large intestines
destroying the friendly bacteria population, leading to ongoing metabolic problems.
Thirdly, the well balanced nutrient profile gives Copra Meal the advantage of being able to be fed as
a sole ration. Consequently it is superbly suited to blending with silage, balancing the high energy
content of the silage with the oil content and protein profile of copra meal - effectively the protein
deficiencies of silage, most importantly that of the amino acid L-Lysine being intimately related to
milk production more specifically milk fat production.
Copra Meal is an efficient, and cost effective feed supplement that can be fed to all classes of
livestock and can be shipped in bulk or packed in 40 kilo PP sacks.
