Dried Milk Protein - Feed Ingredient

Dried Milk Protein refers to the concentrated protein fraction derived from cow’s milk, typically obtained by removing water from whole or skim milk through processes such as spray drying. It includes both casein and whey proteins and may be labeled as milk protein concentrate or isolate depending on the protein content.

In equine nutrition, dried milk protein is primarily used in foal milk replacers, creep feeds, or specialty supplements for young or recuperating horses. It provides high-quality, highly digestible protein along with essential amino acids and small amounts of calcium and phosphorus. Its inclusion supports growth and recovery where a concentrated, bioavailable protein source is needed.
