David Seeley: Demystifying what's inside the salmon feed pellet
Q: What is being done to reduce reliance on marine ingredients?
Innovation includes replacing fish meal and fish oil with alternatives like algae oils and plant-based or single-cell protein products, aiming for scalable, certified, circular-economy sourced ingredients.
David Seeley: Demystifying what's inside the salmon feed pellet
Q: What are the main challenges for farmers regarding feed today?
Price is a major challenge due to supply chain and energy costs, health and survivability concerns, and the need to improve feed efficiency (FCR) to lower overall costs and environmental impact.
David Seeley: Demystifying what's inside the salmon feed pellet
Q: Why is extrusion important for fish feed?
Extrusion makes pellets that don't dissolve in water, helps them hold fat, and uses heat and pressure to ensure the product is safe and free from parasites, enabling fish to get the nutrients efficiently.
David Seeley: Demystifying what's inside the salmon feed pellet
Q: What's the most common question people ask about fish feed?
Most people want to know what's in the feed; there is transparency, and the feed is a balanced, nutritious mix of proteins, minerals, carbohydrates, fats, and vitamins, which can even be tasted by staff to illustrate its nutrition.
Alan Cook: Raising salmon on the high seas
Q: What would someone see if they visited this ship at sea?
They would see a large bulk cargo vessel with fish tanks occupying a significant portion of the hold, a dual-stage filtration and disinfection process, and deck-level equipment like oxygen generation and feed storage, all arranged to support a high-density fish culture in a contained system.
