Nice idea, but... it really depends on how much human edible food that is grown in the UK is now given to animals.
Imported animal grade soymeal is not suitable, neither is sugerbeet leftovers etc. Peanuts don't grow here, most pulses don't grow here... so there are not so many high calorie/high protein options that grow here. I think wild lentils exist in the UK, but I don't think edible lentils are grown at large scale.
Corn is edible though once it is boiled in lime water and can be used to make flours etc.
