Cattle Feed Pulses
Cattle feed pulses are legumes that are used as a protein-rich feed ingredient for livestock, particularly cattle. Some common types of cattle feed pulses include soybeans, peas, lentils, and chickpeas.
The nutrient content of cattle feed pulses can vary depending on the specific type of pulse, as well as the processing and storage methods used.
Cattle feed pulses offer several benefits in livestock nutrition. They are rich in protein, which is important for muscle development, milk production (in dairy cows), and overall growth. Pulses also provide carbohydrates, fiber, vitamins, and minerals that contribute to the overall nutritional balance of the feed.
In cattle diets, pulses can be included as a protein source to supplement other feed ingredients such as grains and forages. They can be used in various forms, including whole, cracked, ground, or processed into pelletized feed. The specific processing method depends on the desired feed formulation and the animal's nutritional requirements.

Pulses like soybeans and chickpeas are relatively high in fat content, which means they can provide a concentrated source of energy for cattle.
