Cotton seed cake is rich in protein and energy, and many farmers feed it to buffaloes and cows to support milk yield and body condition. It is generally fed to adult cattle and buffaloes in measured amounts as part of a ration with green fodder and roughage such as wheat straw. Cotton seed naturally contains gossypol, which can be harmful in excess, especially for young calves, so follow sensible limits and ask a vet or nutritionist about quantities. When checking khal, look for a fresh nutty smell, uniform colour and dry texture, with no mould, rancid odour, sand or excess husk.

Pakistan's monsoon humidity can quickly make khal mouldy, which may lead to aflatoxin risk. Store bags on pallets in a dry, ventilated shed and use stock within a reasonable time. Soaking khal before feeding is a common practice. Browse cotton seed cake listings on Titans Pet and chat with sellers to find fresh, clean khal for your animals.
