Cost Efficiency with Digestible Nutrient-based Formulations
Abstract
Recent geopolitical conflicts have disrupted the supply and prices of energy and most commodities, with some facing even critical availability and pricing thresholds. This has particularly affected marine proteins derived from capture fisheries, which are rich in palatants and essential nutrients such as amino acids and essential lipids, while flows of alternative ingredients were also disrupted. This naturally pushes formulation costs up, forcing aqua nutritionists to find innovative solutions to make more with less so as to preserve the economic sustainability of the industry.
The presentation will illustrate through examples of practical formulations and trial results how some additives, such as digestibility and metabolic enhancers or marine peptides, produced in Asia, can be very useful tools to help reformulate aquafeeds and maintain or improve performance while reducing feed costs.
