The principles of protein extraction from pasture and techniques applied for isolation of unconventional protein‐ leaf protein concentrates (LPC) from pasture herbage have been described. Comparing various methods used for fractionation of proteins recovered from herbage into food, and/or feed‐grade product, advantages of using the ultrafiltration procedure for preparation of protein concentrates (isolates) from pasture were demonstrated. The potential and possible ways of application of the protein extraction system in agricultural practice were also outlined in relation to modern dairy farming operation.
