Abstract
Sustainability of food chains may be improved when circularity principles are integrated, nutrients are retained in the food chain and biomass losses are reduced. In this context, redesigning livestock systems to more circular and regenerative approaches is a critical step. The foundation of this special issue arises from the United Nations Food & Agriculture Organization’s Livestock Environmental Assessment & Performance (UN, FAO LEAP) Partnership who assembled a Technical Advisory Group of 36 experts from 23 different countries spread over five continents to investigate the role of livestock in circular bioeconomy systems. This special issue explores specifically the synergies, trade-offs, and interactions of livestock production within this context.
