Refined forage legumes as local sources of protein feed for monogastrics and high quality fibre feed for ruminants in organic production (original) (raw)

Adler, Steffen A. (2019) Refined forage legumes as local sources of protein feed for monogastrics and high quality fibre feed for ruminants in organic production. In:CORE Organic research seminar. [Unpublished]

Summary in the original language of the document

• Lack of local protein feed for monogastrics in organic farming
Challenges addressed by the project
• Protein-rich fractions of forage legumes are difficult to preserve
• Little knowledge about feed value of fractionated forage legumes
• Introducing local food systems requires knowledge about the actors
attitudes, motivations and ability to deal with risk management
• Food systems must be economically, socially and environmentally sustainable
