Aquaculture Animal Nutrition

Improving the Health of Fish, Crustaceans, and the Water They Live

As the worldwide demand for seafood increases, so does the importance of cost-effective and sustainable aquaculture practices. Aquaculture farmers need to consider the health of fish as well as waste management and potential contamination of their stock and the environment. Enzymes are often used to improve nutrient absorption and increase the availability of nutrients.
