To investigate the practicalities and regulatory requirements of utilising food waste as a feed source for pigs

High quality ingredients are fed to pigs and contribute a significant amount to the cost of production. Each year, Australians discard 361kg of food per person, and so there are potentially opportunities for this to be utilised to feed pigs, as long as the risks and challenges associated can be worked through. This project explored the potential of feeding human food waste to pigs.
