Poultry by-product meal

Processing poultry by-products into feed is a good way to mitigate the environmental problems caused by poultry processing. If not properly managed poultry offals released in the environment are vectors for insects, vermin, bacteria and viruses, which may result in water contamination (leaching of nutrients and pathogenic microorganisms) and air pollution (noxious gases and nuisance odorants) (FAO, 2011).
