Rapeseed meal (RSM), as a by-product, has great potential as a nutritionally rich resource. However, the presence of anti-nutritional factors and poor palatability limits its use in livestock diets. In recent years, there has been a focus on reducing anti-nutritional factors and improving the nutritional value of RSM.
Rapeseed is the second largest plant protein resource in the world with an ideal profile of essential amino acids. Rapeseed meal (RSM) is one of the by-products of rapeseed oil extraction. Due to the anti-nutritional components (glucosinolates and fiber) and poor palatability, RSM is limited in livestock diets. Recently, how to decrease the anti-nutritional factors and improve the nutritional value of RSM has become a hot topic. Therefore, the major components of RSM have been reviewed with emphasis on the methods to improve the nutritional value of RSM as well as the application of RSM in pig diets.
