Tomato pomace: one ingredient, variable material

Tomato pomace is the member in this collection. It generally contains tomato peel, seeds and residual pulp, but the proportions vary with processing. The name alone does not define a fixed composition or nutrient profile.

Buyers may encounter fresh, dried or ensiled material. These forms differ in moisture and handling needs, so confirm the form and review analysis on an as-received or dry-matter basis. Separately processed peel or seed fractions are related materials, not interchangeable names for whole pomace.

Match the lot to its intended use

Tomato pomace has been studied for animal-feed use, but suitability depends on the material’s analysis and the species and ration. For feed formulation, assess the lot’s moisture, protein, fat, fiber and ash data in context rather than relying on a general inclusion assumption.

Food, feed and pet-food applications have different requirements. Confirm the offered material’s intended-use designation and relevant documentation for your application. Before purchasing, also clarify packaging, delivery condition and storage guidance: fresh, moist material and dried product have different perishability and handling considerations.

Common questions.

What does tomato pomace usually contain?+

It generally consists of varying proportions of tomato peel, seeds and residual pulp.

Is tomato pomace always dried?+

No. Fresh, dried and ensiled forms are described. Confirm the form and moisture of the specific lot.

Can tomato pomace be used in animal feed?+

It has been studied as a feed ingredient. Evaluate the specific analysis for the animal species and complete ration rather than assuming one use or inclusion rate suits all cases.

Does feed-grade tomato pomace qualify for food or pet-food use?+

Feed research does not establish food or pet-food suitability. Confirm the intended-use designation and applicable requirements separately.
