Cover Story: White grape pomace (WGP), the byproduct of the winemaking process, greatly impacts the environment. The valorization of agroindustrial byproducts for animal feeding is a useful solution to reducing environmental pollution while lowering livestock production costs. This study demonstrated that the ensiling of white grape pomace in baled silage is a suitable and cost-effective technique for preserving WGP, supporting its use as a ruminant feed ingredient. This approach offers a sustainable and cost-effective strategy for managing WGP and recirculating bioactive compounds within the livestock sector. Further in vivo studies are recommended to assess its impact on animal performance, health, and product quality. View this paper
