Summary
Sustainable development and reducing natural and energy resource consumption are the focus of the policies of many institutions. In this context, livestock farming is one of the major anthropogenic sources of GHG and acidifying gas emissions and requires comprehensive analysis to minimise its ecological footprint. For this reason, it is beneficial to analyse the various processes within this production sector to reduce the consumption of resources, particularly water and soil consumption; reduce energy consumption; and try to valorise the biowaste produced, especially manure, byproducts and wastewater. Reusing residual bioresource and organic waste offers the possibility of valorising a discarded product and, at the same time, reducing the consumption of natural resources. For this purpose
