COVID-19 Impact on Aquafeed Additives Market

The COVID-19 pandemic has slowed operations, resulting in staff shortages and new sanitary guidelines for fisheries and processing. Many countries consider the marine ingredients industry to be an essential part of the food supply chain, which explains why fishing and reduction operations have continued almost everywhere. Feed companies have ensured that farmers have the supplies they need to protect the health and welfare of their animals while also maintaining farm production levels. Growing fish demand has increased export-oriented aquaculture and the adoption of 'Scientific Aquaculture Management Practices' (SAMP).

Recent Development

• Skretting, a Nutreco company, will launch a new starter and grower feed for rainbow trout in December 2021, dubbed Nutra Sprint and Celero, respectively, to assist farms in reaching their full potential. Validation trials for the launched product revealed growth increases of up to 8% and an 8% decrease in Feed Conversion Ratio.
• In September 2021, Cargill announced a multi-year agreement with The Conservation Fund's Freshwater Institute to develop, evaluate, and improve feeds for the land-based aquaculture industry. The Institute can provide Cargill nutritionists and researchers with experience in recirculating aquaculture systems. The collaboration will improve land-based aquaculture's environmental and economic performance by developing and testing feeds specifically for recirculating aquaculture systems.
