Higher Dietary EPA & DHA Levels Improve Salmon Farming Productivity and Predictability
Summary
This study confirms that higher dietary levels of EPA & DHA lead to significant improvements across a range of production metrics, including an 8% reduction in total mortality and a 13% improvement in economic Feed Conversion Ratio (eFCR). Investing in EPA & DHA rich feeds boosts fish health, pro- duces better quality whole fish and fillets dependably, improving profitability across the value chain. Independent research firm, Manolin, Inc., compared the performance and quality differences of Atlantic salmon on commercial farms based on varying dietary levels of Omega-3, EPA & DHA. This research based on large-scale, complex datasets, quantifies the benefits of increased EPA & DHA levels for better harvest results based on feed. This data provides valuable insights for strategic, data-driven decision making by importers, retailers, and farmers.
