Omega-3 fatty acids, particularly EPA and DHA, are fundamental to the health and development of both fish and humans. These long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFAs) contribute to optimal growth, robust health, and high-quality fish and shrimp, showing the connection between aquafeeds and the seafood we consume.
Fish oil is a crucial ingredient in aquafeed formulations, valued for its unique nutritional composition, particularly its high levels of essential omega-3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA). These fatty acids are vital for the optimal growth, development, and overall well-being of farmed fish. Fish oil not only enhances feed conversion efficiency but also plays a significant role in supporting immune function, reproductive health, and the development of larvae and eggs in broodstock.
“Sustainability is both the challenge and opportunity of our time. It’s easy for me to commit to—it just comes naturally. The sustainable approach is for everyone, you just need to change your mindset, “ says Lauris Apsis.
Poultry meal is emerging as a valuable ingredient in aquafeed formulations, offering a circular protein and mineral source that supports the growth and development of farmed fish. Rich in essential amino acids, fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals, poultry meal is highly palatable and plays a crucial role in maintaining fish health and productivity.
Sourcing raw materials for aquaculture has a significant impact on the environment, particularly when it comes to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The extraction, processing, and transportation of these materials contribute substantially to emissions. However, better sourcing practices can help reduce these emissions, and a climate-friendly approach is key to ensuring sustainable aquaculture production.
Caviar d’Aquitaine producers have become the first sturgeon farmers to adopt BioMar’s innovative Blue Impact feed. Already renowned for their dedication to quality and tradition, this association of French farmers are now working with BioMar to integrate Blue Impact feed into their farming practices, further solidifying their commitment to responsible aquaculture.
In today's world, the link between what we eat and how it impacts our health has never been clearer. When it comes to seafood, this connection is even more profound. It's not just "we are what we eat"—but "we are what we eat, eats." The diet of farmed fish and shrimp directly influences their nutritional value, making the quality of aquafeed a crucial factor in ensuring the seafood we consume is nutritious, healthy, and produced responsibly.
Last month, we had the honor of hosting two remarkable groups of USSEC (U.S. Soybean Export Council) delegates from Tunisia and Algeria, accompanied by Dr. I.
