					<p>Cashew (Anacardium occidentale) is one of the indigenous bioresources in Ogbomoso, Oyo State, Nigeria. Cashew pulp is about 5-10 times the size of the nuts or nearly 90% of cashew Less than 10% of it is utilized in Nigeria while the rest is left to rot on the farm during its season, thereby increasing environmental pollution. Therefore, a study was conducted to develop simple method for converting cashew pulp (Cp) into animal feed using wheat offal (WO) as an absorbent at ratio (Cp:WO) 1:1 and subsequently sun-dried for 3 days. The proximate analysis and anti-nutritional factor of processed cashew pulp with wheat offal as absorbent (CpWO) showed that it contained 5.28%, 94.72%, 24.02%, 5.93%, 53.41%, 1.42%, 5.22% and 89.50% for Moisture content (MC), Dry matter (DM), Crude protein (CP), Crude fibre (CF), Nitrogen-free extract (NFE), Ether extract (EE), Ash content, and Organic matter (OM), respectively while the anti-nutritional factor contained 12.22%, 6.21%, 7.33%, 7.34mg/100g, 6.56mg/100g, 3.21mg/kg, 82.39mg/g and 14.58mg/g of Saponin, Alkaloid, Flavonoids, Tannin, Polyphenol, Cyanide, Phytate and Oxalate. The results obtained from this study showed that cashew pulp with wheat offal as absorbent (CpWO) could be used as an alternative feedstuff in the diet of livestock..</p>
