NOTICE: The project that is the subject of this report was approved by the. Governing
Board of the National Research Council, whose members are drawn from the councils of
the National Academy of Sciences, the National Academy of Engineering, and the Institute
of Medicine. The members of the committee responsible for the report were chosen for
their special competences and with regard for appropriate balance.
This report has been reviewed by a group other than the authors according to procedures
approved by a Report Review Committee consisting of members of the National Academy
of Sciences, the National Academy of Engineering, and the Institute of Medicine.
The National Research Council was established by the National Academy of Sciences
in 1916 to associate the broad community of science and technology with the Academy's
purposes of furthering knowledge and of advising the federal government. The Council
operates in accordance with general policies determined by the Academy under the authority
of its congressional charter of 1863, which establishes the Academy as a private, nonprofit,
self-governing membership corporation. The Council has become the principal operating
agency of both the National Academy of Sciences and the National Academy of Engineering
in the conduct of their services to the government, the public, and the scientific and
engineering communities. It is administered jointly by both Academies and the Institute of
Medicine. The National Academy of Engineering and the Institute of Medicine were es-
tablished in 1964 and 1970, respectively, under the charter of the National Academy of
Sciences.
This study was supported by the Agricultural Research Service of the U.S. Department
of Agriculture; the Bureau of Veterinary Medicine, Food and Drug Administration of the
U.S. Department of Health and Human Services; and by Agriculture Canada.

Preface
In 1978, the Committee on Animal Nutrition (CAN) of the National
Research Council (NRC) convened a task force of scientists to examine
the available literature on the feeding of "exotic" or underutilized feed-
stuffs to food-producing animals and to recommend to the CAN whether
a report on the subject would be warranted. Subsequently, a CAN Sub-
committee on Feeding Underutilized Feedstuffs to Animals was appointed
to include expertise in animal nutrition, animal waste recycling, food
science and technology, crop residues, feedstuffs from wood, and bio-
chemical engineering.
The subcommittee met on September 6-7, 1978, in Washington, D.C.;
December 3-5, 1979, in Chicago, Illinois; and June 17-19, 1980, at the
NAS Summer Studies Center, Woods Hole, Massachusetts.
This report was written by the CAN Subcommittee on Feeding Under-
utilized Feedstuffs to Animals, each chapter being prepared by one or two
members of the subcommittee; however, the entire document has been
approved by all members.
During the preparation of its report, the subcommittee received valuable
assistance from Robert C. Albin; W. Brady Anthony; Dudley D. Culley,
Jr.; Charles C. Dunlap; Marcel Faber; D. M. Graham; James F. Hentges,
Jr.; L. D. Kamstra; John H. Litchfield; C. Reed Richardson; Lewis W.
Smith; Jack C. Taylor; Peter J. Van Soest; Howard G. Walker; and R. J.
Young.

Review of this report was accomplished through the advice and sug-
gestions of the Committee on Animal Nutrition and the Board on Agri-
culture.
The subcommittee is indebted to Philip Ross, Executive Director, and
Selma P. Baron, Staff Officer, of the Board on Agriculture for their
assistance in the preparation of the report. The subcommittee is especially
grateful to George K. Davis who served as coordinator for the review of
the report.
