Roasted Soybeans

Kaylor AgriServices’ high-oleic roasted soybean meal is a locally produced, high-energy feed ingredient designed specifically for today’s high-performing dairy herds. Using identity-preserved high-oleic soybeans, our roasting process delivers a consistent, nutrient-dense product that supports milk production, components, and overall rumen health.

High-oleic soybeans are naturally higher in oleic acid and lower in polyunsaturated fatty acids compared to conventional soybeans. This improved fatty acid profile makes them more rumen-friendly and allows for higher inclusion rates without increasing the risk of milk fat depression. The result is a reliable source of energy that helps maintain strong milk fat and component performance.

Our controlled roasting process increases rumen-undegradable protein while preserving the oil within the whole bean. By keeping the fat encapsulated, cows can efficiently utilize the energy while maintaining optimal rumen function. This provides dairies with a practical alternative to added fats or imported specialty feeds.

Kaylor AgriServices’ high-oleic roasted soybeans offer:

  • Increased energy density in dairy rations
  • Improved milk fat consistency and component stability
  • Enhanced protein utilization
  • A locally sourced, identity-preserved feed solution

By combining advanced soybean genetics with proven processing, Kaylor AgriServices delivers a high-quality feed ingredient that helps dairies maximize feed efficiency and long-term performance.

Why Roasted Soybeans?

Soybeans are a valuable source of protein that also contain a high level of fat at about 20%. Roasting is a common practice to prevent rancidity, enhance palatability and improve ruminal undergraded protein (RUP). However, feeding commodity soybeans at high levels, especially when the oil in the beans is exposed through grinding, can lead to significant milk fat depression.

Plenish soybeans, with 75% oleic acid and only 9.5% polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs, including linoleic), compared to conventional soybeans with 22% oleic acid and 63% PUFAs, represent a groundbreaking innovation in dairy nutrition, allowing for a shift in the way nutritionists formulate rations.

Benefits of Roasted Soybeans

  • Enhanced palatability
  • Increased ruminal bypass protein
  • Oil rancidity prevention
