Chemical composition of a wide array of household
wastes and crop residues are shown in Table 3.
These residues are mostly low in protein, usually
tion of the available feed resources, even in the face
containing less than 10% CP, with associated high
fibre levels, e.g. cassava leaves and peels (Onwuka
of need.
et al., 1989). Some of them have high gross energy
levels but their overall degradability is hampered by
