A rapidly growing population has heightened concerns over natural resource depletion, economic ramifications, and environmental degradation. To mitigate these challenges, responsible utilization of alternative resources, recycling practices, and carbon footprint reduction are imperative.
Agro-industrial by-products hold promise as sustainable feed sources, offering a potential solution to reduce feed costs—a primary expense for animal farms. Shifting focus from human-consumed foods like barley and corn grain to agro-industrial waste can alleviate food insecurity and environmental pollution.
This Research Topic aims to compile cutting-edge research on utilizing alternative eco-friendly materials to alleviate pressure on traditional food sources, emphasizing agro-industrial residues untapped by human consumption. In our quest for resource efficiency, maximizing the utility of farm-produced resources is essential for sustainable practices. By harnessing agro-industrial wastes for animal feed, we can foster eco-friendly nutrition systems within the livestock industry, effectively curbing greenhouse gas emissions, and enhancing productivity levels.
Our overarching objective is to introduce eco-friendly feed options that not only complement conventional feeds but also reduce greenhouse gas emissions and bolster livestock productivity. By incorporating eco-friendly feeds, we can mitigate greenhouse gas emissions while bolstering mineral bioavailability, energy provision, and protein sources - all without amplifying the carbon footprint.
We actively encourage submissions exploring the following key themes to advance our understanding and implementation of eco-friendly feedstuffs in ruminant production:
• Eco-friendly feed options for curbing greenhouse gas emissions in ruminants
• Eco-friendly feed choices to enhance ruminant health and welfare standards
• Sustainable eco-friendly feed solutions for optimizing ruminant production outcomes
• Biovalorization processes aimed at improving the efficiency of eco-friendly feed materials
• Utilizing eco-friendly feedstuffs to improve mineral bioavailability in ruminants.
