Experiment demonstrates how processing methods affect nutrient intake and nitrogen utilization in red sokoto bucks fed piliostigma reticulatum pods.

Red Sokoto bucks showed higher dry matter intake when fed roasted piliostigma reticulatum pods (903.0 g).
The highest acid detergent fiber intake was noted in bucks on roasted pods, exceeding those on raw and soaked forms.
Nutrient digestibility was numerically highest in soaked pods for dry matter, neutral detergent fiber, and crude fiber.
Treatment with roasted pods improved nitrogen utilization, leading to lower output and higher retention rates in bucks.

Yusuf et al. (2025) studied this question.
