Phytogenic solutions in aquaculture
Reach out for a precious source of protein
The responsible production of protein due to a worldwide growing consumer demand confronts the industry with many challenges.
In last decades “aquafarming” and the establishment of aquaculture emerged to an efficient system coping with the special situation of protein production from aquatic species and evolved as a powerful counterstrategy against overfishing of the oceans.
Phytogenic support for the main challenges in aquaculture
Phytogenic solutions can help to improve the situation, resulting in benefits for animals, consumers, and producers. A wide variety of different phytogenic formulations allows Delacon to offer different solutions that can help support several nutrition-related functionalities:
- Helping enhanced nutrient uptake can support the performance of fish and shrimp.
- Supporting improved feed efficiency contributes to environmentally friendly aquaculture production.
- Maintaining resilience by supplementing phytogenic solutions in aquaculture can help reduce antibiotic use.
Moreover, sensitive ingredients, such as essential oils, are micro-encapsulated. The microencapsulation technology ensures high stability of volatile bioactive compounds during feed processing.
Performing nature for a performing aquaculture
The aquaculture industry has been growing fast. Already in 2016, aquaculture production reached similar levels as capture fishery systems. High efficiency and performance turn the industry into one of the most efficient systems to produce animal protein. With their unique functionalities, phytogenics can bring profitability into aquaculture production - and make a valuable contribution to reducing overfishing of the oceans.
