ABSTRACT:
This invention encompasses protein-protected ruminant feed comprising a pelleted admixture of unhydrolyzed proteinaceous meal and a ruminant-edible water-soluble zinc salt providing zinc ions in aqueous solution, said zinc salt being present in an amount providing a 0.25 to 1.3% zinc ions based on the dry weight of the proteinaceous meal, this feed having been prepared by intermixing said zinc salt with said proteinaceous meal, and forming the mixture into pellets. The large amount of zinc protects protein in the rumen of cattle and provides for more efficient utilization of feed protein.
