Corn gluten meals are packed with value in aquaculture nutrition. With 60–70% protein on a dry matter basis, plus functional compounds like carotenoids, CGM is doing a lot of hard work in modern fish and shrimp diets.
BioMar has achieved ASC Feed Certification for its production facility in Brande, Denmark, significantly expanding the reach of its ASC-compliant feed offering. As a key site supplying feed to Central and Northern Europe, Brande’s certification reflects BioMar’s commitment to responsible and certified aquaculture, enabling even more producers to align with the Aquaculture Stewardship Council (ASC) Feed Standard across species and geographies.
Fish meal is widely regarded as one of the most efficient and complete protein sources available for aquafeeds. It provides farmed fish with a rich supply of essential amino acids, high-quality proteins, vitamins and minerals, all of which are critical for rapid growth, metabolic health, and immune system function. For many species, particularly in early life stages, fish meal remains an irreplaceable component of nutritionally balanced feed due to its digestibility and nutrient density.
Nijvis serves as an example of how companies in niche industries, such as eel farming, can integrate sustainable practices while achieving business success. They are setting a new standard in the aquaculture industry, as they continue to expand and lead by example.
With 30 years of experience in the Finnish market, the energetic team of Oy BioMar AB stands for hands on service with fast deliveries of high-end fish feeds.
The oxygen content of the water is often the most prominent limiting factor in intensive fish farming. It is a well-known fact that poor oxygen content means that it is not possible to utilise the full potential of both the fish and the feed. A jet platform is an example of an efficient and yet simple mechanical method for oxygen enrichment of water.
By focusing on nitrogen-efficient feed formulations and exploring alternative protein sources, the project aims to reduce the environmental impact of fish farming while ensuring healthy, thriving fish. The results of this project have the potential to change the face of aquaculture for good, leading to a cleaner, greener future
In fish farming, large fluctuations in the oxygen content of water have a negative impact on the well-being of the fish and consequently on its growth. High water temperatures or rich vegetation in the water are important alarming factors to observe, especially in summer periods.
Every year, billions of chickens are processed for food - leaving behind mountains of feathers. While most see this as waste, aquaculture nutritionists see something else entirely: opportunity. These feathers, once destined for landfills, are now being transformed into a high-protein, sustainable ingredient known as feather meal.
Oy BioMar AB now offers 30 years of experience to our partners in Finland, where fish farming is a strong player for producing delicious, healthy, sustainable local food.
In fish farming, being attentive to oxygen levels and implementing oxygenation are important prerequisites for maintaining economic growth rates.
