Abstract
With aquaculture intensifying to meet future demands and forage fish stocks nearing their ecological limits, fed aquaculture must continue to scale down reliance on fishmeal and fish oil to safeguard the sustainable development of the sector.Sustainable alternative feed ingredients for the production of aquafeeds are paramount.Apart from terrestrial plant-based and animal-based ingredients, fishery and aquaculture by-products and insects are presently the most viable alternative sources.
