Guar Meal (Churi)

Product Overview: Guar Meal Churi

Guar Meal Churi is a high-protein by-product obtained during the processing of guar meal churi into guar gum. After the dehusking and splitting process, the husk and germ are separated to produce guar meal, which is further refined into Guar Meal Churi. Rich in protein (35–40%) and fiber, it is widely recognized as a valuable, cost-effective ingredient in animal feed formulations for cattle, poultry, fish, and pets.

Origin & Cultivation

The raw material for guar meal churi originates from guar cultivation in semi-arid regions, predominantly in India, Pakistan, and the USA. India contributes around 80% of global production, with Rajasthan, Gujarat, and Haryana being the main growing belts. Guar crops are not only sustainable and drought-resistant but also contribute to soil enrichment through natural nitrogen fixation.

Composition & Processing

Guar meal churi is derived from the husk and germ portions of guar meal churi after extraction of the endosperm. The processing steps ensure nutritional richness and safe feed quality:

Processing steps include:

Meal Churi Cleaning – Removal of dust and foreign matter.
Dehusking & Splitting – Separation of husk, germ, and endosperm.
Meal Extraction – By-product collection during guar gum production.
Roasting/Toasting (optional) – Enhances digestibility and reduces anti-nutritional factors.

Key Qualities & Applications

High Protein Content (35–40%) – Promotes growth and health in livestock.

Rich in Fiber – Supports digestion in ruminants.

Cost-Effective Feed Ingredient – Economical replacement for expensive protein sources like soybean meal.

Non-GMO & Natural – 100% plant-based, safe, and eco-friendly.

Uses Across Industries

Cattle Feed – Improves milk yield and overall health.

Poultry Feed – Boosts growth rate, weight gain, and egg production.

Aquaculture – Serves as a protein supplement in fish and shrimp feed.

Pet Food – Adds protein and fiber content in balanced formulations.

Organic Fertilizer (limited use) – Sometimes used as a soil conditioner due to residual nutrients.
