This project aims to address the environmental and economic burden of food waste by enabling its utilisation as a feed for poultry. This project expects to generate new knowledge in poultry nutrition using a holistic approach exploring the nutritional, health, welfare, economic and environmental effects of food waste diets for poultry. The expected outcomes of this project include enabling food waste diets for poultry and a greater understanding of basic nutrition including, carbohydrate and fat metabolism. This should provide significant environmental and economic benefits by utilising food waste that would otherwise go to landfill and improving our understanding of poultry nutrition, giving potential economic savings over $500 million.

该项目旨在通过将食物垃圾用作家禽饲料来解决食物垃圾造成的环境和经济负担。该项目希望利用一种全面的方法产生家禽营养方面的新知识，探索食物垃圾饮食对家禽的营养、健康、福利、经济和环境影响。该项目的预期成果包括为家禽提供食物垃圾饮食，以及更好地了解基本营养，包括碳水化合物和脂肪代谢。这将带来显著的环境和经济效益，因为它利用了原本会被送往堆填区的食物残渣，并改善了我们对家禽营养的了解，潜在节省了超过5亿美元的经济。
