NovaPro is a high energy, hot pressed rumen protected rapeseed expeller supplying similar quantity of rumen bypass protein as hi-pro soya with a significantly higher energy content (~10%) than rape seed meal due to higher retained rumen friendly oil. The by-pass protein is of higher digestibility than that within other rumen protected rape seed meal based products as it is not subjected to hexane solvent extraction that reduces digestibility.

NovaPro is produced at a new state of the art rapeseed expelling facility, where whole rape seeds are heated and pressed to expel the oil, after which the residual cake is treated using a unique and safe patented process which increases the level of rumen bypass protein. The process takes advantage of naturally occurring wood sugars which, when mixed with the rapeseed cake under gentle steam treatment, binds to part of the protein, protecting it from degradation in the rumen. During production of NovaPro, careful process control procedures ensure that the proteins become highly rumen undegradable but retain, post rumen, high intestinal digestibility, similar to untreated soya bean meal. Hexane solvent, which has been shown to reduce protein digestibility, is not used in the manufacturing of NovaPro. Unlike conventional rapeseed extract where hexane is applied during the recovery phase of the process.
NovaPro is a FEMAS assured (or a recognised equivalent) fully traceable, product, marketed by Trident Feeds – a UFAS accredited merchant. NovaPro is listed under Rapeseed expeller feed number 2.14.6 in the EU Catalogue of Feed Materials.
