Abstract
This article aims to present the perception of protein safety by feed market participants in Poland and indicate the factors determining its development. In recent years, food security has become a subject of particular importance for European countries, including Poland. The growing number of the global population is causing an increase in the demand for animal protein, the production of which primarily requires a liquid supply of vegetable protein for feed production. In Poland, as in other EU countries, the demand for feed protein has, for many years, been much higher than the domestic production of protein feed raw materials. The COVID-19 pandemic has created many risks associated with maintaining the supply chain and clearly points to the need for greater self-sufficiency in feed protein. The research shows that a lack of vertical integration and agreement among players is one of the major problems in the functioning of the indigenous protein crop market. A solution could be to create an online platform that acts as a market maker.
