Aquafeeds
Although today’s soybeans offer many benefits, farmers can also plant alternatives, sometimes on the same farms that raise genetically modified beans. Organic beans meet specific market demands, and a conventionally bred non-GMO bean has been developed for use in aquafeeds for carbohydrate-intolerant marine fish.
Health & Welfare
The authors have achieved good growth using a fishmeal-free diet for the carnivorous marine fish Florida pompano. In studies, they used pompano as a model marine species in a cost/benefit analysis of two extruded diets.
Health & Welfare
A project of the Soy-in-Aquaculture program evaluated the feasibility of using soy protein concentrate and soybean meal to replace fishmeal in cobia diets.
Health & Welfare
A study evaluated Pacific white shrimp given plant protein-based diets with varied lipid content and soybean meal:soy protein concentrate ratios.
Aquafeeds
A laboratory study indicated gilthead sea bream can be grown on feeds in which fishmeal and fish oil levels are reduced from traditional values using soy products.
