Aquafeeds refer to any feed given to aquatic farmed animals as part of aquaculture. Aquatic animals (both farmed and wild) require a balanced mix of essential nutrients such as amino acids, fatty acids, and vitamins to thrive. Aquafeed has become crucial to aquaculture globally due to the nutritional, immune-resistant, and growth-promoting properties of compounded feed. High-quality aquafeed is exponentially more beneficial to fish, mollusks, crustaceans & other aquatic animals than farm-made feed due to their balanced and need specific composition. The global aquafeed market is projected to rise by USD 15.6 billion by 2029, according to a new report by Gen Consulting Company.
