Livestock Feed
|
Bio-processing (feeding of organic waste to domestic and livestock animals)
|
- |
Separation at source of organic waste that is to be used as livestock feed |
- |
Health and safety standards must be adhered to during collections of the organic waste to minimise risk of pathogen proliferation |
- |
During transportation and handling of organic waste for livestock feed, leakage must be avoided and transportation containers must be leak proof |
- |
The weight of bins must be considered at all times which must not exceed 80kgs as this would be too heavy to transport and risks breakage and leakage |
- |
Between collections of organic waste for livestock feed, bins/storage receptacles must be thoroughly cleaned |
|
- |
Animal-based organic waste must be removed from the organic waste stream where such waste is destined for pig feeding |
- |
Wheelie bins should be the preferred storage bins as these are leak-proof |
|
- |
Thermal treatment of organic waste prior to feeding to livestock |
- |
Registration of plant-based organic waste to be used as livestock feed with FFFASR Act |
- |
Organic waste of animal origin to be used as livestock feed must be treated prior to feeding to livestock |
- |
Organic waste destined for livestock feed must be blended with other materials to ensure a nutritionally balanced livestock feed |
