The search of alternative feed ingredients in poultry nutrition is a continuous process in the pursuit of economical poultry production. Feed costs are primarily driven by the cost of protein sources. Substitution of expensive protein sources with lower cost ingredients would potentially reduce the cost of the feed. Rice gluten meal (RGM) is a by-product of wet milling of rice obtained during starch extraction and syrup preparation. It is relatively a new feedstuff having brownish coloured and coarse powdery texture. Commercial traders categorise RGM as a high crude protein and energy ingredient which is priced lower than soybean meal. Rice gluten meal is high protein and high energy alternate feed resource that can be utilized for livestock and poultry feeding for economic production.
