Eating fish has many health benefits: it is an excellent source of low-fat, high-quality protein and is filled with nutrients such as vitamin B2 and minerals. It is recommended that people eat fish at least two times per week on average and eating more than that amount is often encouraged by health professionals. That is why the aquaculture industry and fish nutrition are so important.

Our premix experts have a global approach to fish and shrimp management and aqua nutrition. We are honored to be your partner during all shrimp or fish production steps. As your partners, our experts provide you with customized support through technical services, dedicated support at every stage of your production system and adapted to your production types.

Aquaculture Nutrition

The formulation is key in aqua nutrition

We are your partner to build your feed range depending on the shrimp and fish physiological stages and specificities like rearing systems and feeding regime. We can formulate recipes based on the available raw materials, and these formulas take into account the feed analysis results. This way, we can provide you with the best formulation that meets all the fish and shrimp nutritional requirements and brings the most health and nutrition benefits.

Part of this formulation expertise is the development of unique organic acid, and Acidulik is one example of this. Organic acids are natural preservatives adapted to nutrition and act naturally on intestinal health by encouraging positive flora. Backed by our specialists’ know-how, Acidulik optimally benefits from the potential of organic acids. In order to guarantee optimum efficiency, ACIDULIK comprises a wide range of solutions and customized support, each of which fulfils a specific need. The main goals of Acidulik are:

  • Ensuring quality of the raw materials, feeds and drinking water
  • Safeguarding the food chain
  • Improving intestinal well-being

Premix for fish & shrimp

One of the things that sets feed products apart, influences animal performance, and addresses the specific nutritional needs of those animals is the premix used to create a finished feed product. All premixes are not created equal. The right formula will have a specific blend of vitamins, minerals, trace elements and nutritional additives.

Premixes make up a small percentage of the formulation but have the potential to make a big difference in the efficacy of a feed. Micro premixes are mixed into the feed between 0.2 and 2% of the total mix, while macro premixes make up between 2% to 8% of the mix (including also macro-elements, salts, buffer and amino acids).

These products provide a powerful component of the feed that ensures balanced, correct nutrition and value-added ingredients. Creating this unique blend that is tailor-made to fit what the animals require and what our customers demand is one of the things ADM does best.

Working towards results

We are focused on the improvement of zootechnical parameters for optimal fish and shrimp health. Optimal fish and shrimp health can be exhibited by fish who are eating, growing, and flourishing. This consumption of feed and overall growth leads to the weight gain needed for commercial purposes. By paying attention to the parameters that point to a healthy environment, the aim is to ensure optimal feed intake, acceleration of growth, improve feed conversion ratio, survival rate and yield.

Digital Apps in aquaculture

As the efficiency of aquaculture systems depends on many factors, we go further than simple aqua nutrition for fish and shrimp. That is why we have developed InMyFarm Aqua, a digtial app that enables us to provide technical advice. In turn, this will help your client to improve their management techniques, aiming to maximize the technical and economic results of the farm.

Digital Apps for fish and shrimp nutrition

We propose digital applications that can help optimize nutritional performance by providing immediate guidance on the diet and nutritional program composition. Because our matrix equations and databases are frequently updated and can pull from a history built from years of analysis coming from our R&D, we can offer solid information and background to fuel well informed decision-making. Thanks to this, we are able to provide advice adapted to aquaculture needs and to the producer’s objectives.

These tools allow you to enhance your expertise. In the everyday life, you make decisions according to multiple factors or data that is available at the farm level. Our applications collect and analyze the farm, herd or animal data, and propose an adapted diagnosis and solution. The expected levels of performance or quality are factors that we also consider within our digital apps, as you weigh your options.
