Formation of the Technical Advisory Group on feed additive environmental assessment
Building global technical consensus on feed additive environmental profile through the LEAP Partnership
The Livestock Environmental Assessment and Performance (LEAP) Partnership aims at developing guidance and methodology for environmental assessments of all types of livestock production systems. After having formed a new technical advisory group (TAG) to assess soil carbon stock changes in grasslands and rangelands earlier this year, LEAP is now forming a TAG on Feed Additives and seeking for experts to collaborate as technical members in this new initiative. The experts participating in this TAG should have a strong background in one or more of the following subjects: animal science, animal nutrition, life cycle assessment, livestock production systems, feed technology and sciences. Ideally, TAG members have a proven track record in research. LEAP aims to establish a TAG with diverse expertiseand experience background, and therefore encourages scientists from all regions of the world to express their interest. Interested experts can apply at [email protected] until 31st July 2017 16th August 2017.
More details on tasks, work plan, deliverables and application procedure for TAG members are available in the Terms of reference.
