Many of the agricultural by-products considered as wastes have great potentials as animal feed ingredients if properly handled, processed and incorporated into animal diets. Pods of cocoa (Theobroma cacao L.) were washed to remove residual mucilage, chopped to pieces, sun-dried for 7-14 days and milled as cocoa pod husk (CPH) meal. The CPH were thereafter fermented with ash solution for 168 hours followed by fermentation with rumen liquor for another 168 hours. The ash and rumen liquor fermented samples were sun-dried and chemically analyzed for the proximate composition, anti-nutritional factors, mineral components and fibre fractions. The crude protein content of the raw CPH increased by 50.90-62.50% while the crude fibre content reduced by 16.86-44.86% when subjected to the combined treatments of ash solution and rumen liquor fermentation. The caffeine and theobromine contents decreased by 54.48-97.13 and 59.03-74.30%, respectively while the fibre fractions (acid detergent fibre, neutral detergent fibre, acid detergent lignin cellulose and hemicellulose) decreased in the treated CPH with a Coefficient of Variation of 2.40-121.03%. The concentrations of all the minerals: Ca, P, K, Na, Mg, Zn, Fe, Co and Mn measured were enhanced in the treated CPH samples. It could be concluded that combining ash solution treatment and fermentation with rumen liquor for 168 hours would help to enhance the nutritive quality of CPH for inclusion in livestock feed in the region where cocoa pod husk are being produced in large quantities.
