What ingredients are in the recipe of our feeds?
Due to specific nutritional needs, aquaculture feeds can contain many different ingredients of vegetable, marine and land animal origin. Some of the better-known inclusions can be fish meal and fish oil, wheat, soy, rapeseed meal, sunflower meal and faba beans. Something you might not know is that thanks to decades of R&D, Skretting can make feed for salmon without any fish ingredients at all. That’s due to the nutritional knowledge and expertise of our teams. Another surprising fact is that a single feed can contain up to 50 ingredients, all of which serve an essential purpose.
The ingredients that we use contribute essential nutrients like protein, energy, carbohydrates, fatty acids, vitamins and minerals to the finished feed, ensuring that the fish and shrimp receive a complete nutritional package.
