Palm Kernel Expeller (PKE) or Palm Kernel Meal (PKM) is a by-product from the extraction of oil from the kernel of the palm seeds of the oil palm, Elaeis guineensis. The kernels are found inside the shell of the fruit after flesh has been stripped away. PKE is the mashed solid part of the seed kernels left remaining after oil extraction, which involves many stages.
PKE is a quality stock feed containing high levels of crude protein and medium energy levels. It is completely safe to feed as a supplement for most classes of livestock. PKE is ideally suited to feeding in conjunction with high energy feeds such as maize silage or molasses.
