Copra Meal Cake

Copra Meal Cake

Coconut oil is produced by extracting oil from copra, which is dried coconut flesh. When the oil is expelled mechanically the residue is called copra cake and if this is then solvent extracted to increase the yield of oil, the product is called copra meal. These copra by-products are valuable protein sources in animal feeds, especially dairy feed.
