Environmental and Nutritional Value of Fruit and Vegetable Peels as Animal Feed: A Comprehensive Review

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Fruit and vegetable peels, rich in nutrients such as fiber and phenolic compounds, can boost livestock productivity, enhancing milk, meat, and draught power. Their use as animal feed reduces organic waste, cuts greenhouse gas emissions, and decreases dependence on grain‐based feeds, offering a sustainable solution with significant nutritional and ...
