EU pig and poultry farmers one step closer to having access again to processed animal proteins A proposal that would allow the feeding of processed animal proteins (PAP) from poultry to pigs and pig PAPs to poultry again has been accepted by an overwhelming majority, through a ballot procedure within the EU Standing Committee on Plants, Animals, Food and Feed (SCoPAFF). EU member state representatives in the SCoPAFF backed the draft Commission Regulation amending Annex IV to Regulation (EC) No 999/2001 - also known as the BSE regulation - that would lift the ban on using pig PAPs in poultry feed, poultry PAPs in pig feed, insect PAPs in pig and poultry feed, and ruminant collagen/gelatin in non-ruminant feed.
