Abstract
Eventhough man has a wide choice of foodstuffs, the gap between requirement and the supply of food is unusually wide. This may be due to number of reasons such as limited availability of these foods and the prices at which they are selling. In order to tackle this problem many nutritionists and agricultural scientists, in India have concentrated their attention on nutritive value of marginal foods of various types such as bajra fodder, mango seed kernels, tomato waste, dried beet pulp, bamboo seeds, adda and marking nut kernels, jowar fodder, Dhanata (whole paddy flour) and Balata (mill-residue flour). The present investigation on the nutritive value of pea-pods is another addition to the field of marginal foods.
