Every 100 kcal of triticale flour brings 3.9 g of protein. On that measure it ranks 23rd of the 111 grains in this database and 530th of all 796 foods on the site. Measured by weight instead, its 13.2 g per 100 g ranks 9th in its group.
Around 16% of the calories in triticale flour come from protein, so it is more of an energy food than a protein food. It contributes to a day's protein total, but the bulk of what it delivers is energy rather than amino acids - treat it as a contributor alongside a denser source, not as the protein in a meal.
Weight for weight, triticale flour has 7.3 g of protein for each gram of fat (13.2 g against 1.81 g per 100 g).
Set against breadcrumbs, another grain entry in the database, a serving carries about 0.5 g more protein (breadcrumbs has 3.8 g per 1 oz).
It is an incomplete protein on its own; pairing it with other plant foods across the day covers the full range of essential amino acids. The serving quoted here is measured by volume at 32.5 g, and it covers about 9% of the 50 g FDA Daily Value for protein.
Triticale is a wheat and rye hybrid.

Sample figures for one made-up week against a 110 g goal, not your data. Red bars met the goal. Your own log fills this in with Premium.
13.2 g. The 1/4 cup serving used on this page weighs 32.5 g and so carries 4.3 g.
How much protein do you get per 100 calories of triticale flour?
3.9 g. That figure divides its 13.2 g of protein per 100 g by its 338 kcal per 100 g, so it does not depend on serving size.
Is the protein in triticale flour complete?
No. On its own, the protein in triticale flour is short of at least one essential amino acid; other protein sources across the day fill the gap.
What share of the protein Daily Value is one serving of triticale flour?
About 9%. One 1/4 cup serving has 4.3 g, and the FDA Daily Value for protein is 50 g.
