F3 Challenge names its Carnivore Edition winners at GOAL 2022
Three winners were awarded a $100,000 prize in the F3 Challenge Carnivore Edition, the global aquaculture industry’s aquaculture feed contest.
Testing alternative diet compositions to offer more sustainable feed formulations for European sea bass
Alternative diets using novel plant and animal-derived protein sources have comparable performance to current commercial sea bass feeds.
Upcycling food system byproducts in livestock and aquaculture feeds
Greater use of byproducts as aquafeed has considerable potential, especially combined with other measures, in the transition to circular food systems.
Inca peanut cake trialed as a fishmeal replacement in Pacific white shrimp diets
Inca peanut (sacha inchi) cake is a promising alternative protein source to fishmeal for farmed shrimp, with questions about anti-nutritional factors.
Evaluating the effect of dietary protein and lipid on the growth performance of juvenile giant trevally
In this trial, the growth performance of juvenile giant trevally was the highest when the fish were fed a 52 percent protein, 10 percent lipid diet.
Aquaterra’s canola oil improves salmon fillet quality in Nofima trials
Aquaterra® Advanced Omega-3 canola oil is shown to improve the visual and nutritional quality of farmed salmon when included in their diets.
Chitin digestibility and intestinal enzyme activity in Nile tilapia and rainbow trout
Study results corroborate that chitin could act as a nutrient source as well as an antinutrient in both Nile tilapia and rainbow trout.
Researchers say sparing fishmeal and fish oil in farmed salmon diets can foster long-term growth
Deakin University study finds that just 3% of fishmeal and fish oil in farmed salmon diets could allow the industry to grow for the rest of this century.
Hemp seeds trialed as a feed ingredient for Scottish salmon
Rare Earth Global is exploring how hemp seeds could be integrated into the diets of farmed salmon in Scotland.
Net-zero aquafeed facility planned for Iceland
BioMar Group and Síldarvinnslan will build a modern, net-zero aquafeed production facility in Iceland, an emerging aquaculture producer.
Insect farming is gaining ground as aquaculture awaits its emergence
Black soldier fly larvae producers are hoping to go “mainstream” and gain wider acceptance in aquaculture amid concerns about high costs.
How does nanoselenium supplementation impact Nile tilapia?
Nanoselenium supplementation increased its bioavailability and improved overall growth as well as the omega-3 fatty acid content of tilapia.
Meta-analysis of the effects of black soldier fly meal on fish growth
Results indicate it is feasible to achieve high levels of substitution of fishmeal with black soldier fly meal without risking a negative impact.
Effect of microalgae Scenedesmus on Pacific white shrimp and Nile tilapia in a biofloc environment
Addition of the microalgae Scenedesmus to tilapia feeds and rearing water improve fish growth and yields without affecting sludge production.
This marine microalga could be a more sustainable aquaculture feed ingredient – but there’s a catch
A new study finds marine microalga Schizochytrium sp. could be a more sustainable fish feed ingredient than fish oil if 'more work' occurs across the supply chain.
Start-up raises $20M to advance technology that converts methane to aquafeed
String Bio has raised almost (U.S.) $20 million to advance technology that converts methane into value-added products, such as aquafeed.
