This article aims to assess the feasibility of using native legumes as alternative sources of protein in compound feeds by poultry producers and pig producers. Data to achieve this objective came from a direct survey conducted in 2018, with twenty-three poultry and pig producers. Measures of descriptive statistics were used in the calculations. The collected information was analyzed and then described using descriptive statistical methods. The research used statistical data collected in the databases of the Central Statistical Office and the databases of the Institute of Agricultural and Food Economics. The obtained results were illustrated using graphical methods of data presentation. The study reveals that the main obstacles to the use of native legumes in animal nutrition, in the opinion of pig producers and poultry producers, include the share of anti-nutrients, problems with digestibility of legumes, low protein content in seeds, problems with production technology and the higher cost of compound feeds.
