摘要

Conversion of agricultural by-products such as Palm Kernel Cake (PKC) to monogastric animal feed can provide added value to monogastric animal feeding as an energy resource and reduce competition with Man for feed resources. Maize is a major ingredient for compounding feed for this category of livestock and this has the associated problems of high cost and competition as Man also consumes maize. In the decade before year 2000, the livestock sector in Nigeria saw an unprecedented increase in feed cost to the extent of constituting over 90% of Poultry and Pig farm recurrent expenditure. This no doubt resulted in the closure of many Poultry and Pig farms. The animal protein intake of an adult human being in Nigeria is estimated at 15% of the total caput protein when compared withn an average intake of 55% for a European, yet, Nigeria is blessed with enormous livestock resources. Palm Kernel Cake (PKC), which is one of the agro-industrial by-products is available in large quantities in Nigeria. Although, there is variability in the nutritional compositions, there exist great potentials for producing good quality meat from PKC because the product is cheap, readily available and with low cost of processing. Monogastric animal production plays an important role in providing Nigerians with the cheapest sources of animal protein. The search for sustainable solution to the major constraints hindering the adequate supply of this product (animal protein) is the focus of this paper. Animal Nutritionists have carried out quite a number of investigations as to the level of inclusion of PKC as replacement for maize and the effects of enzyme supplementation on Poultry and Pig diets, all with a view to reducing cost, enabling cheaper meat production and making available major crops for human consumption. The author observed that majority of these studies focused on Poultry nutrition and therefore suggested that more studies be carried out on the utilization of PKC on both Poultry and Pig nutrition so as to meet the required demand for animal products.
