Kevin Fitzsimmons, leader of the F3 (fish-free feed) Challenge, says aquaculture may currently depend on fishmeal and fish oil, but farmed fish do not.
Para posicionar la acuacultura para el crecimiento futuro, necesita herramientas para evaluar un espectro creciente de ingredientes alternativos y dietas formuladas diseñadas para optimizar la salud y la producción eficiente de los peces.
To position aquaculture for future growth, it needs tools to evaluate a growing spectrum of alternative ingredients and formulated diets designed to optimize fish health and efficient production.
The inaugural F3 Challenge sought to drive innovation in the aquafeed sector and reduce aquaculture's reliance on marine ingredients like fishmeal and fish oil.
Studies by the University of Arizona Aquaculture Pathology Laboratory identified the causative agent for AHPNS as a unique strain of Vibrio parahaemolyticus bacteria that can produce toxins responsible for the primary pathology in affected shrimp.
Saudi Arabia has a growing aquaculture industry that farms mainly tilapia, but also shrimp, grouper, sea bream, rabbitfish and mullet. Although aquaculture is a major source of supply for fresh fish, it has not grown fast enough to meet the
With its large quantities of water and little industry to pollute it, Guyana has the potential to become a greater player in global aquaculture.
Global tilapia production and consumption growth has mirrored the species' versatility. The fish will remain integral to rural aquaculture development.
The most important quality issue for tilapia is the presence of off-flavors that derive from cyanobacteria and actinomycetes, which can be addressed by depuration.
Tilapia has aptly been called the “aquatic chicken,” a description that has become more accurate as time goes by. It is now the most widely cultured fish on the planet.
