European Union: Renewed EU Effort for Loosening Animal Feed Ban on Animal Protein

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

The EU may soon end the ban on processed animal protein (PAP) in poultry and pig feed. A proposal for a regulation to allow poultry PAPs in pig feed and pig PAPs in poultry feed is expected to be on the agenda of the Standing Committee for animal feed for approval by written procedure in the coming months. The EU ban on animal proteins in feed for farm animals was introduced through the 2001 BSE regulation and the only reauthorizations since then was for pig and poultry PAPs in feed for aquaculture in 2013.
