WHAT IS CANOLA
Canola, a Canadian success story, has its roots in the development of low-acid rapeseed varieties in Canada. The name "Canola" is a combination of "Canadian" and "oil, low acid," reflecting the changes in the new varieties. The canola cultivars grown in Canada belong to the Brassica napus species, commonly known as Argentine canola. Originally, Brassica campestris and Brassica napus had distinct origins, with the former originating in the Himalayan foothills and the latter likely originating in the Mediterranean region. The name "Canola" was initially a trademark of the Rapeseed Association of Canada, created by condensing "Can" from Canada and "ola" from oil.
CANOLA MEAL
Canola meal is a valuable byproduct derived from the processing of canola seeds during oil extraction. This protein-rich meal serves as a crucial component in animal feed for livestock, poultry, and fish. Known for its excellent amino acid profile, canola meal is a widely used protein source in animal nutrition.
