摘要 |
The invention is intended to increase digestibility of a vegetable protein raw material that is important as a protein source to be substituted for animal protein, and to provide not only a more useful raw material for animal feed, but also animal feed using the raw material. The feed raw material having increased digestibility is provided which is produced by acting krill or an enzyme present in krill on a vegetable protein raw material containing hard-to-digest saccharides, such as soybeans, defatted soybean lees, wheat, corn gluten meal, rice bran, defatted rice bran, processed bran, rapeseed oil lees, cottonseed oil lees, and potato protein, to partly decompose the hard-to-digest saccharides. The invention also provides animal feed using the feed raw material thus produced. |
