Extract

1. Groundnut meals subjected to different degrees of heat treatment during manufacture were fed to lactating goats on nitrogen-balance experiment. The ‘toasted’ groundnut meal was more effective than undenatured or air-dried meals in promoting nitrogen retention.

2. The heat treatment of the groundnut meals did not influence the digestibility of the protein.

3. The groundnut meals were typed by determining their salt-peptizability giving values ranging from 44% for the ‘toasted’ meal to 80% for the air-dried meal.
