DORB stands for De-Oiled Rice Bran — the fibrous, protein-rich byproduct left over after oil is extracted from rice bran during rice milling. It’s one of the most widely used raw materials in Indian cattle, poultry, and swine feed formulations because it’s affordable, high in fiber and protein, and available in large volumes wherever rice

Pig farming in India runs on tighter margins than most people outside the industry realize. Feed accounts for 65–75% of total production cost—higher than in cattle or poultry—because pigs are single-stomached, fast-growing, and unforgiving of formulation mistakes.

For twenty years, India was one of the world’s reliable soybean meal exporters — prized internationally precisely because it was non-GM. In the space of a few weeks in mid-2026, that story flipped. Traders cancelled export contracts, domestic prices tore past ₹65/kg, and the country that used to sell soybean meal abroad is now booking
