Global Aquaculture Alliance — The Advocate
Wastes produced during food processing can be treated to generate a valuable single-cell protein ingredient for aquafeed with protein and amino acid content similar to fishmeal.
A study compared the effects of two forms of methionine supplemented at different levels in feeds for Pacific white shrimp. Test diets containing methionine bound in soy protein had less leaching of methionine than the diets containing crystalline methionine.
Rendered meals, or feeds with ingredients made from animal byproducts, meet many important criteria and have excellent prospects for aquaculture feeds.
