Soybeans and corn are already a natural and important source of protein, vitamins, minerals, and high energy oils in many animal feeds. Roasting these products prior to feeding just makes them that much more beneficial. Roasting soybeans also kills unwanted urease enzymes and trypsin inhibitors while at the same time making the protein, fat, and amino acids of the soybean easier to digest.
