In this talk, we discuss the physics modeling of antiproton spectra arising from dark matter (DM) annihilation or decay in a model-independent manner. The modeling of antiproton spectra contains some intrinsic uncertainties related to QCD parton showers and hadronisation of baryons. We briefly assess the sources of these uncertainties and their impact on antiproton energy spectra for a few selected DM scenarios. The results are provided in tabulated form for future analyses.
