After a while, such a thick layer of algae built up on the newsprint that it had a higher content of crude protein than dried beef, soybean meal or skimmed-milk powder. Though the Missouri scientists do not suggest that their old-newsprint disposal scheme could ever fill human food needs, it could provide a useful high-protein feed for livestock.
