Ways
feed producers use soy
Increased world demand for commercial farmed fish
products have opened the industry to alternate sources of feed. In the
production of pelleted feed one third of the composition is soy.

need for fish meal or meat. The resultant feed product is highly nutritious,
reduces waste, cost effective.
