Adapting the feed, the animal and the feeding techniques to improve the efficiency and sustainability of monogastric livestock production systems (Feed-a-Gene)
Start date: Mar 1, 2015, End date: Feb 29, 2020,
Feed-a-Gene aims to better adapt different components of monogastric livestock production systems (i.e., pigs, poultry and rabbits) to improve the overall efficiency and to reduce the environmental impact. This involves the development of new and alternative feed resources and feed technologies, the identification and selection of robust animals that are better adapted to fluctuating conditions, a ...

A whole-systems approach to optimising feed efficiency and reducing the ecological footprint of monogastrics (ECO-FCE)
Start date: Feb 1, 2013, End date: Jan 31, 2017,
ECO-FCE’s objective is to firstly understand the interactions within the monogastric biological system which create diversity, optimise feed use efficiency and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, nitrogen and phosphorus excretion, whilst not adversely affecting animal health, welfare or product quality. Secondly, ECO-FCE will develop industry-ready tools which will facilitate the selection of breedin ...

Internet of Things Initiative (IoT-i)
Start date: Sep 1, 2010, End date: Nov 30, 2012,
Internet of Things (IoT) is one of the most important areas of a Future Internet with significant potential to positively impact European economy and society. The current IoT research community is however highly fragmented, featuring diverging approaches and technologies. This inevitably leads to a lack of coherency that hinders the realisation of an interoperable IoT, preventing the IoT to achiev ...
