Abstract:Extrusion cooking, a high-temperature short-time processing technique holds promise for lowering enzyme inhibitor activities and improving nutrient bioavailability in grain legumes, thus improving their feeding value. The effect of extrusion cooking of two grain legumes; pigeon pea (Cajanus cajan) and bambara groundnut (Vigna subterranean) at varied temperatures on growth performance, endogenous enzyme activity and organ development of 35d-old meat-type chickens was investigated. Pigeon pea and bambara groundn… Show more
