Aquaculture feeds are currently dependent on fishmeal and fish oil as their primary ingredients, creating a fundamental dilemma: producing a small amount of high-value farmed fish by consuming large quantities of low-cost wild fish.
To address this challenge, our project aims to eliminate reliance on fishmeal and fish oil by utilizing marine thraustochytrids as both a protein source and a source of essential fatty acids. Through this approach, we seek to develop and commercialize a sustainably producible fishmeal-free aquaculture feed ingredient.
