# Canola meal: from byproduct to valuable co-product | The Western Producer

> DowDuPont plans a full commercial launch next year of its ProPound canola line, whose meal contains 44 percent protein versus 37 percent in standard canola varieties and soybean meal's 47 percent. The company aims to narrow canola meal's roughly 30 percent discount to soymeal to about 10 percent. Dairy cattle already dominate canola meal demand.

## Why it matters

Higher-protein canola meal could take share from soybean meal in feed formulations and narrow the price discount, bearish for soymeal over time while supporting canola meal values.
