Developing Alternative Animal Feed Ingredients

Global consumption of meat and other animal-derived products has risen drastically in the last 50 years. At the same time, the livestock sector has come under scrutiny for its reliance on feed sources which carry a significant environmental impact. Alternative animal feed ingredients are seen as an increasingly popular option to meet this growing demand, whilst also ensuring that food is produced more sustainably.

Developing alternative animal feed ingredients provides a comprehensive overview of the key groups of alternative animal feed ingredients, from cereal grains and oil seeds, to animal by-products and single-cell proteins. The book also considers the key issues and challenges that must be addressed by the animal feed sector during the development of alternative animal feed ingredients, such as the need for new products to meet nutritional quality, sustainability, safety and other regulatory requirements.
