A new and revolutionary type of feaiher meaf fdr fish feed

摘要

As costs for fishmeal have skyrocketed due to El Nino, earthquakes in South America and a situation where demand is outstripping supply, the interest in alternative proteins in aquaculture has increased. Reducing fishmeal dependency is becoming more important for the profitability and sustainability of the aquaculture industry (Hardy and Kissil, 1996; Hasan, 2001, Skretting, 2010). An ingredient that has not received its fair share of attention by fish nutritionists in recent years is feather meal. Feathers are by-products of the poultry meat processing.
