No results found.Multiple opportunities and examples for advanced feeding practices and functional feed additives were identified that allow for the safe and effective replacement of antimicrobial growth promoters (AGPs) and the overall reduction of the need to use antimicrobials in livestock systems.The nature of these feeding strategies is diverse, allowing a tailored approach for individual animal species and age- and production groups. Moreover, feeding practices and sustainable livestock system rely heavily on the availability of feed and feed ingredients in each geographic region. The many alternatives identified in this report include the use of locally produced feed ingredients and feed additives as well as products originating from a circular economy.
