GROWTH PERFORMANCE OF GILTHEAD SEABREAM (Sparus aurata) FED LOW FISHMEAL DIETS WITH INNOVATIVE INGREDIENTS

Description

The constant demand of sea products forces the global fisheries and aquaculture to produce more. Aquaculture of carnivorous species rely on marine protein and oil, but during 2018, 18 million tons of wild fish have used for the production fishmeal and fish oil (FAO ,2020). This, nowadays, has led most of the research to focus on the replacement of fishmeal and fish oil with sustainable sources of protein and lipids. This study aims to evaluate the effect of dietary fishmeal replacement with alternative ingredients such as algae meal, insect meal and tunicate meal on growth performance of gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata).
