John Bernard, a professor and dairy scientist at the University of Georgia Tifton campus, has found “cotton cake” to be an effective protein supplement for dairy cattle. The mean milk protein content (2.89%) in the present study was in line with the value (2.81%) reported by Adebabay (2009) in local cows fed treated wheat straw supplemented with noug seed cake. Cotton cake is a type of cottonseed meal, the solid material that remains after oil is extracted from cottonseed and is made from products that would otherwise be wasted. norm.
