The articles were based on reviews, and results of recent research activities in Nigerian universities, and polytechnics. The book contains twenty articles divided into two section, viz; the scienceofpalm kernel cake utilizationinanimal production (eight articles), and the feeding valueofpalm kernel cakeforpoultry, and pigs (twelve articles). Although the articles were written with enough technical depth, farmers, and industrialistshaving agricultural, and allied sciences background will also find them useful.
