Abstract

Poultry production is an important contributor to global warming potential (GWP), acidification (AC) and eutrophication (EU). This is mainly due to 1) the use of high dietary crude protein (CP) levels and 2) the important demand for imported protein feedstuffs
like soybean meal (SBM). Indeed, 51% of SBM used in Europe is dedicated to poultry production and 70% is originating from South America (DG Agri – Oilseed and Protein Crops Production, 2019).
