Aquatic nutritional science focuses on optimizing the diets of farmed fish and other aquatic species to promote healthy growth, disease resistance, and overall well-being. This involves understanding the nutritional requirements of different species, from proteins and fats to vitamins and minerals. Advances in feed formulations aim to reduce dependence on traditional ingredients like fishmeal, incorporating alternative protein sources such as plant-based ingredients and insect meals. By improving feed efficiency, aquaculture can reduce costs and environmental impacts while enhancing productivity. Research into the nutritional needs of farmed fish helps ensure that these organisms receive the necessary nutrients for optimal growth, leading to healthier, more resilient fish populations and contributing to sustainable aquaculture practices.
