Use of an Ethanol Bio-Refinery Product as a Soy Bean Alternative in Diets for Fast-Growing Meat Production Species: A Circular Economy Approach

The recent conceptual pivot from bioethanol production to ethanol biorefining has led development of protein derived by fractionating the non-ethanol streams post fermentation within plant. aim this study was identify effect replacing dietary soy with corn-fermented (CFP) on performance fast-growing meat species and impact carbon footprint associated feed for each species. contains trials 3 species, broiler, turkey salmon. In trial one, 324 broiler chicks were allocated randomly 36 pens distributed into treatments; control (0% CFP), 5% CFP 10% CFP; 35 days. 2, 150 poults treatments: (0 4% 8% 3, 525 Atlantic Salmon (starting weight 304 g ± 10.7 g) raised in 15 saltwater tanks 84 days 5 treatments, CFP, 15% 20% CFP. Growth response, nutrient utilisation assessed trial. Replacement showed limited differences growth response utilization but bean meal at rate 5%, salmon diets, respectively resulted a 14% decrease diet manufacturing. This investigation shows coupling poultry represents highly effective circular economy contributing multiple UN Sustainable Development Goals.
