Guar Meal is a natural animal feed but is also used as binder for other feeds. It typically comes in two forms: Guar Meal Churi (Hull) and Guar Meal Korma (Germ).
Whereas Soybean Meal is a by-product obtained during soybean oil extraction
Comparison of Guar meal with Soybean meal
Rama Gums is largest manufacturer of Roasted guar korma in India, The high amino acid content makes Guar Meal an appealing and potential source of protein supplement for animals. Moreover the germ fraction contains energy, protein, methionine and phosphorus in higher levels than in other best available vegetable proteins. The comparison of guar meal with soybean clearly concludes that guar meal can be introduced as a suitable replacement for conventional meals without any adverse effects.

| Parameters | Soybean meal | Guar meal Korma (50%) |
| Cysteine | 0.70 | 1.00 |
| Leucine | 3.49 | 2.40 |
| threonine | 1.78 | 0.03 |
| Tryptophan | 0.64 | 0.52 |

| Methionine | 0.57 | 2.96 |
| Phenylalanine | 2.22 | 3.47 |
| Glycine | 2.00 | 5.85 |
According to above details Normal Guar Korma can partially replace Soybean whereas Roasted Guar korma can fully substitute soybean meal in animal feed.

Conclusion – As per above experiment and research by Rama Gums, Normal Guar Korma can partially replace Soybean meal but when analyzed Roasted Guar korma can fully substitute soybean meal for animal feed consumption.
This inhibitor limits the formation of trypsin which is an essential enzyme for nutrition. Therefore the Guar korma is heated at high temperature which breaks the cell walls and enhances the protein and amino acids digestibility in the product.
Excellent replacement for Soybean Meal, with highest protein value and lower cost advantage
