Rice Protein Powder
Rice Protein Powder for animal feed, supplied from audited Chinese mills with a full specification and certificate of analysis on enquiry.
About this ingredient
Rice protein powder is a concentrated protein produced from rice, most commonly as a co-product of starch or syrup manufacture. It is hypoallergenic relative to soy and dairy proteins, which is why it appears in pet food and in specialist aquaculture diets.
It is limiting in lysine, so it is used alongside a lysine source rather than as a sole protein. Particle size and solubility vary by process and matter more in aqua feed than in terrestrial diets.
Where it is used
- Premium pet food, particularly limited ingredient diets
- Aqua feed and shrimp diets
- Young animal diets where allergenicity is a concern
Formulation note
Rice protein is low in lysine, so pair it with a lysine rich protein or synthetic lysine. For aqua feed, ask about particle size and solubility.

Frequently asked questions
Why is rice protein used in pet food?
It is considered less allergenic than soy and dairy proteins, which makes it useful in limited ingredient diets.
What is the limiting amino acid in rice protein?
Lysine is limiting, so rice protein is normally balanced with another protein or synthetic lysine.
How is rice protein powder made?
It is usually a co-product of rice starch or rice syrup production, dried to a concentrated protein powder.
