Nutrient value and acceptance of a complete and balanced dog food with novel ingredients from insects and algae
FY 2021-22 · 2021-12-01
Summary
Livestock and fish farming are the largest contributors to the environmental impact of food production; thus, finding ways to sustainably reduce livestock and fish demand is desirable and will support the development of sustainable, local food systems. In the context of pet food, there are nutrients that have been historically provided by fish or meat ingredients and so to reduce our reliance on traditional farming, we will evaluate the nutritive value, palatability and digestibility of an adult maintenance dog food containing novel ingredients as main sources of protein and essential amino acids.

Description
Livestock and fish farming are the largest contributors to the environmental impact of food production; thus, finding ways to sustainably reduce livestock and fish demand is desirable and will support the development of sustainable, local food systems. In the context of pet food, there are nutrients that have been historically provided by fish or meat ingredients and so to reduce our reliance on traditional farming, we will evaluate the nutritive value, palatability and digestibility of an adult maintenance dog food containing novel ingredients as main sources of protein and essential amino acids.
Description (French)
Dans le monde de la production alimentaire, l'élevage de bétail et l'élevage piscicole ont le plus fort impact environnemental. Il est donc souhaitable de trouver des façons de réduire de façon viable la demande en bétail et en poisson afin de favoriser l'établissement de systèmes alimentaires locaux durables. Dans le contexte de nourriture pour animaux domestiques, certains nutriments proviennent depuis longtemps de viande et de poisson; pour réduire notre dépendance de produits agricoles traditionnels, nous évaluerons donc la valeur nutritive, la palatabilité et la digestibilité de nourritures d'entretien pour chiens adultes contenant de nouveaux ingrédients comme principales sources de protéines et d'acides aminés essentiels.
