The objective of the PRIMA-NEWFEED project is the development and adoption of alternative animal feeds setting up a circular economy approach in the livestock production by turning the by-products of the food industry into high value secondary feedstuff for animal feed. The project also focusses on the increase of the sustainability of the Mediterranean livestock through the valorisation of local food industry by-products that will lead to reduced environmental impact and costs.

This project is part of the PRIMA programme supported by the European Union under Grant Agreement number: [2013] [NEWFEED] [Call 2020 Section 1 Farming IA]. Call: Section 1 – Farming Systems 2020 Topic 1.2.1: Genetic conservation and animal feeds Sub-topic B) Alternative animal feeds (Innovation Actions).
