SkyPro High-Oil Equivalent of Soybean Meal (TU_U_10.9-44866814-004:2025) is produced using the American Insta-Pro ExPress soybean processing technology. This technology involves additional thermal processing of soybeans for a specific duration at defined temperatures prior to conventional extrusion. This, in turn, makes it possible to reduce antinutritional factors (primarily trypsin inhibitors to 6 mg/g) in the final product — down to the levels typically found in meals produced by chemical extraction.

At the same time, due to the exclusive use of mechanical processing methods, the high-oil equivalent of soybean meal SkyPro contains no residual hexane (solvent) or other chemical compounds that come into contact with the product and may partially remain in the final meal when using the chemical extraction method applied in the production of conventional meals.

Thus, the high-oil equivalent of soybean meal SkyPro offers significant quality advantages in terms of product safety for feeding pigs and poultry — animals that are particularly sensitive to antinutritional factors, especially trypsin inhibitors — compared to standard expeller meals and chemically extracted meals.

This is evident from the comparative table of safety indicators for soybean-based feed products being evaluated:

* Since state laboratories in Ukraine are currently unable to test products for trypsin inhibitors, these indicators are not included in regulatory documents. The data presented are based on research. This indicator in Sky Protein products is specified in the contract and confirmed by studies using the wet chemistry method.

In addition to its obvious quality advantages, the high-oil equivalent of soybean meal SkyPro offers significant economic appeal when compared to standard meal — especially considering the cost of oil that must be added to feed formulations.

In fact, during the production of standard meals using chemical extraction methods, the maximum amount of oil is removed from the soybeans (which is the purpose of solvent extraction). The oil content of standard meal is only 1–1.5%.

However, fat is required in feed formulations, and oil must be re-added during feed production — even though it was excessively removed earlier during processing. Moreover, the cost of oil is 2 to 3 times higher than that of the meal itself.

In the production of the high-oil equivalent of soybean meal SkyPro, no chemical extraction method is used. As a result, it retains a higher residual oil content — at the level of 6–7%, which is approximately 5% more than in standard meal.

If we take feed formulations (which include almost all standard recipes) where at least 5% additional oil is added when using standard soybean meal with an oil content of 1–1.5%, we arrive at the following technical and economic calculation:

Indicator	Meal 46+	SkyPro 46+	Meal 48+	SkyPro 48+
Crude protein at 1–1.5% oil content	46%	-	48%	-
Crude protein at 6–6.5% oil content	43,8%¹	44%	45,71%¹	46%
Price² of meal with 1–1.5% oil	€270	-	€307	-
Price² of soybean oil	€905
Price² of meal with 6–6.5% oil	€302³	€286	€337³	€322
Savings	€16		€15

Conclusion:

Although the high-oil equivalent of soybean meal SkyPro is on average €15 more expensive than standard meal, it turns out to be on average €15 cheaper when the higher oil content is taken into account.

1 - Protein in 1 ton of meal is 450 kg (45%). When 50 kg of oil (5%) is added, the amount of protein remains unchanged, so it should be divided by 1.05. Thus, we have the formula:

К6 = К1 / 1,05, де
К1 – protein content at 1% oil
К6 – protein content at 6% oil 2 - The prices of meals and oils are approximate and based on July 2025 FCA Ukraine.

3 - To compare the cost per 1 ton of standard soybean meal with 1–1.5% oil content and the high-oil equivalent SkyPro soybean meal with 6–6.5% oil content, we need to take the cost of 950 kg of standard meal and 50 kg of soybean oil.
Thus, the equivalent cost of standard soybean meal at 6–6.5% oil content is calculated using the following formula:

Р6 = Р1*0,95 + Рoil*0,05, where:

Р6 – equivalent cost of standard soybean meal with added oil to reach a total oil content of 6–6.5%
Р1 – cost of standard soybean meal
Рoil – cost of soybean oil
