Aquaculture Feed

aquaculture feed



Working towards sustainable shrimp feed

Pilchards, sardines and krill; food for humans or starvation for the entire marine food chain?

What right do we have to rape and pillage the seas for our benefit to the detriment of the marine ecosystem? Aquaculture doesn’t help because that (mostly) requires small fish from the sea to feed the larger fish that we farm. What will be the scenario in 10 or more years?

The scenario is bleak. Already today, many fish species have been hunted to ‘commecial extinction’. That means they are not really extinct but have become so rare that attempting to catch them has become ineffective. Newfoundland Cod is such a fish.
As it is, I suppose a lot more species will follow.
Aquaculture could be a way out provided it is not smaller fish that are used as feed. Protein pellets from cultured algae could also work. There is a lot of research going on here but it takes time to develop such new methods.

Live Feeds in Marine Aquaculture $354.69 As the expansion in world aquaculture continues at a very high rate, so does the need for information on feeding of cultivated fish and shellfish. In the larval and juvenile phases of many species, the use of manufactured feed is not possible. This important book covers in detail the biology and culture of the main live prey and microalgae used as feeds in the aquaculture of major commercial species including shrimps, sea bass, halibut, cod and bivalves.Contents include comprehensive details of the status of marine aquaculture in relation to live prey, and chapters covering the biology, production, harvesting, processing and nutritional value of microalgae and the main prey species: rotifers, Artemia and copepods.The editors have drawn together an impressive international team of contributors, providing a work that is set to become the standard reference and practical guide on the subject for many years to come. Live Feeds in Marine Aquaculture is an essential purchase for anyone involved in marine aquaculture, including fish farmers, researchers, and personnel in feed and equipment companies supplying the aquaculture trade. An extremely valuable tool as a reference and practical manual for students and professionals alike; libraries in all universities and research establishments where biological and aquatic sciences and aquaculture are studied and taught, should have copies available on their shelves.
