German feedmiller successful in mechanically making bypass protein

Dairy farmers do not want the protein in their cow’s feed to be digested by the microbes in the rumen. This means the protein has to be protected so it can bypass the stomachs and can be absorbed in the intestines. German feedmiller Deuka has experimented for a decade now with protecting protein with a high-temperature short-time extrusion system and gained successful results.
