Interpretive Summary:

Technical Abstract: Research in the Food Science & Market Quality & Handling Research Unit has demonstrated the value-added use of unblanched high-oleic peanuts as a feed additive to meet the nutritional needs of poultry, while enhancing the quality and nutritional value of the poultry products (chicken breast and eggs) for human consumption. Such research is described in a popular press article by Emily Parcell in the Poultry Times titled "Research explores use of peanuts in chicken nutrition".
