Do you pick up food waste from local businesses to supplement your animals diet? Tell me about your best sources. How do you bring your livestock food costs down?

Hej, do you get food scraps from local businesses like supermarkets, restaurants, breweries or juice shops to supplement your animals diet? I recently got 2 tonnes of unsaleable carrots. I also try to phone/visit local businesses that could have food waste. Some supermarkets will allow you to pick up their vegetable waste. Another great tip is buying some brewers spent grain. Here you can get a ton dirt cheap and you can supplement up to 10%of your animals diet with it. How do bring your food costs down?
