The Feed PEFCR is meant to set out the measurement rules that all food chain stakeholders would use for calculating the environmental footprint of animal products according to PEF. For the development of the Feed PEFCR, the recommendations from the Livestock Environmental Assessment and Performance (LEAP) Partnership have been taken into account.
The Technical Secretariat of the Feed PEF pilot has launched a public consultation that will run from 22 July 2016 to 9 September 2016 to gather feedback on the updated draft PEFCR. This is the third and last public consultation of the pilot phase, which follows two previous consultations, organised in October 2014 and September 2015.
The draft Feed PEFCR is available for download on the stakeholder workspace of the Feed pilot project. This is also where the comments of the public consultation need to be uploaded, using the corresponding template. Registration as a stakeholder is necessary, further instructions can be found here. All comments received will be made publicly available. For more information on PEF, visit the European Commission’s dedicated webpage or the FEFAC Feed PEFCR factsheet.
