Performance of novel low trophic raw meterials in Atlantic salmon Salmo salar diets

Many different raw materials are considered as candidates for replacing fish meal (FM) and fish oil FO) in diets for salmonids, particularly focusing on locally produced low trophic level organisms with higher sustainability and circular economy potential. However, most of these novel raw materials differ from fish, containing e.g., high levels of complex carbohydrates or fully saturated triglycerides, and their nutritional value and nutrient bioavailability must be investigated before their use in commercial feeds.
