Feeding New Opportunities: Aquaculture Nutrition Forum

Courtesy of NAA:

The Soy Aquaculture Alliance is hosting a virtual forum on Jun 29th, 6:30 AM – 10:00 AM PST, to bring together experts from the agriculture and aquaculture industries for a discussion on the use of soybeans as a replacement protein for fishmeal in fish feed. The invitees will be discussing: What does research say about adding soy into fish diets? What challenges do companies face implementing soy? How can the industry balance feed costs, availability, and sustainability? How does soymeal affect fish feed nutrition?

The Forum, consisting of three panels, will be moderated by Courtney Krupp, Focus Area Director – Animal/Aquaculture Feed, US Soybean Export Council.
