Fishmeal and aquaculture
Fishmeal is one of the best sources of protein in formulated diets for aquatic animals.
Currently, high-quality fishmeal constitutes 45-50% of the diet of sturgeons. In general, the main consumption of fishmeal in aquaculture began with the growth of the aquaculture industry in 1961, and in recent years, simultaneously with the development of the aquaculture industry, due to the decrease in sea stocks and fish catches in the world, the amount of fishmeal consumption in this industry has increased.
