The workshop aims to create a forum for interaction of European private and public stakeholders within the feed - livestock value chain. The expected outcome is a white paper describing the current state of the area, and defining prioritized objectives for European cross disciplinary research activities across the feed - livestock value chain - to secure a competitive and environmentally sustainable European meat, dairy and egg production by the development of improved feed and optimized feeding technologies.
