Pea Cream – Pea Cream is a new-to-Canada, liquid livestock feed produced at the Portage pea protein plant using wet pea pulp/concentrated pea soluble. Pea Cream offers producers a local, sustainable feed that may reduce impact from supply chain/weather events.
Pea cream is a mix of the wet pulp obtained during starch separation and the concentrated solubles obtained following protein extraction. The level of protein can vary from 15 to 25% on a dry matter basis, depending on the raw materials and the process conditions.
