BioMar has significantly increased the levels of vitamin D3 across all salmon diets. Research findings point to enhanced fish health benefits while increasing the nutritional value of farmed salmon for consumers.
This study explored how different levels of synthetic vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) supplementation influence whole body and fillet vitamin D3 deposition in rainbow trout reared under recirculating aquaculture system (RAS) conditions.
The collaboration between Lunar, BioMar, Scottish Sea Farms, and Marks & Spencer is a great example of a local value chain in action, that starts in Scottish waters and ends on Scottish dinner tables. By working together, we can enhance the resilience of Scotland’s seafood supply chain, ensuring a responsible and efficient food system.
Conventional farming has led to soil degradation, with an estimated 60 years of topsoil left if depletion continues. Regenerative agriculture offers a solution by improving soil microbiomes, which are crucial in creating symbiotic relationships with crops.
BioMar’s production facilities in Myre and Karmøy, Norway, have officially achieved Aquaculture Stewardship Council (ASC) Feed certification. This latest achievement strengthens BioMar’s global commitment to responsible feed production and ensures Norwegian farmers have access to ASC-compliant feed ahead of upcoming requirements.
The Sustainable Feed Mission is a Norwegian national initiative set to transform their food system though feeds. Bringing together industry, research, and policymakers, the mission aims to cut emissions, enhance food security, and strengthen Norwegian feed ingredient production.
BioMar Group has announced a partnership for the manufacture and distribution of aquafeed through Fóðurblandan’s production facility in Reykjavik, marking a significant milestone as BioMar becomes the only global manufacturer with aquafeed production in Iceland.
The link between what we eat and how it impacts our health has never been clearer. The food we eat plays a vital role in our health, and when it comes to seafood, this connection runs even deeper. It is not just about what we eat, but about what our food eats.
To help mitigate these challenges and enhance fish health, we're excited to introduce SmartCare CONTROL Gill, the latest addition to our SmartCare portfolio. This groundbreaking product is designed to strengthen gill health and improve fish robustness.
The first quarter of the year underlines the continuous strong performance of BioMar. Record high volumes for the quarter, combined with solid earnings, provides a head start on the year. Year-on-year, BioMar increased volumes by 12%, driven by a positive development across all segments. While Salmon feed volumes increased by 7%, Selected Species went up by 13% and Shrimp reached an impressive increase of 24% in feed volumes, mainly driven by the business in Ecuador.
Measuring impact is the first step towards reducing it. For years carbon calculations for soy in aquafeed relied on generic data, which does not reflect the reality of responsible farming. In 2019, together with ProTerra, we embarked on a mission to deliver science-backed, verified emissions data for key soy ingredients used in aquafeed.
Forest, Land and Agriculture (FLAG) emissions will be important as the aquaculture industry transitions towards lower-carbon production. These emissions, now tracked under the Science-Based Targets initiative (SBTi), originate from land use and agricultural activities rather than from energy consumption.
