A method for improving the digestibility of crop residues and feed grains for livestock is disclosed in which such crop residues and grains are treated with an aqueous solution of chlorites at a pH at or above 9, except for sorghum grain which is buffered so that the solution has a pH between 6.5 and 7.O. The treated grains are satisfactory feed for ruminant animals, improved by about 50% in digestibility and are non-toxic. <IMAGE> |
