Organised by The Fish Site and InnovaFeed, the event will cover ways to improve the sustainability of shrimp feeds – an outlay that can account for up to 80 percent of a farmer’s CO2 impact and over 60 percent of their costs.
The current scale-up of alternative feed ingredients might provide the shrimp industry with new ways to improve health, performance and sustainability. However, there are still challenges – in particular in terms of scalability, cost and relating to regulations – preventing the more widespread adoption of these new raw materials.
These opportunities and obstacles will be the subject of a discussion among key shrimp feed providers during the webinar.
Key topics
Maye Walraven, head of business development at InnovaFeed, will be discussing the results of recent trials which suggest that insect protein can improve both the growth and health status of farmed shrimp and also how the startup plans to scale-up to a meaningful production level.
Alexandre Bédier, technical sales manager at Nutrima, will discuss how key customers, such as top-end monodon farmers in Madagascar, are adapting to demands from certification bodies to reduce the levels of marine ingredients in their feeds.
Olivier Decamp, group technical director at Grobest, will talk about the process required to adopt a novel feed ingredient and the need for consistency in supply.
Alexandre Veille, a shrimp nutritionist at Gold Coin Group, will highlight the wide range of novel ingredients that he works with and will also discuss how to ascertain whether an ingredient is genuinely sustainable.
