Dairy Protein Feed Ingredient Supplier South Africa

What is Dairy Protein?

Dairy proteins — including whey protein concentrate (WPC), whey protein isolate (WPI), skimmed milk powder, and casein — are derived from bovine milk during cheese and dairy processing. They represent some of the highest quality and most digestible protein sources available for monogastric animal nutrition, with an excellent balance of essential amino acids, high bioavailability, and superior digestibility compared to most plant proteins.

In young animal nutrition, dairy proteins are essential components of milk replacers and starter feeds for piglets, calves, and lambs, providing easily digestible protein during the transition from milk to solid feed. Their high lactose and protein digestibility, combined with palatability, makes them ideal for encouraging early feed intake in post-weaning stress periods. In pet food, dairy proteins contribute to high protein quality scores and palatability. In aquaculture, whey protein concentrates are being evaluated as partial fishmeal replacers.
