BioMar EMEA introduces BioMar Feeding Tool

April 17 2018

Fish farmers in the markets served by BioMar’s EMEA Division in Europe, Middle East and Africa now have access to an innovative online tool for calculating and forecasting the need for feed on a farm. BioMar Feeding Tool aims at making it easier for farmers to calculate feeding rates as well as long term feed consumption on their farm.

“Creating value for our customers’ businesses is one of our ultimate purposes. In addition to providing industry leading products and feed concepts, as BioMar, we aim at fulfilling this purpose through innovative services. BioMar Feeding Tool is one of the game changing services in this direction,” said Michel Autin, Technical Director of BioMar’s EMEA Division.

BioMar Feeding Tool is a result of BioMar’s extensive research and expertise in the field of nutritional needs of farmed fish as well as practical experience gained through close cooperation with customers since the day company was founded in 1962. This tool will enable farmers to calculate daily feeding rates and to forecast the need for feed in a given period for a given farm.

Michel Autin explained: “The BioMar Feeding Tool is an online service intended for providing recommendations for the use of BioMar feeds in an efficient and easy-to-follow way. Our purpose is to assist our customers in making more effective calculations on daily feeding rate and forecasting the feed usage on their farm for a given period to possibly increase the efficiency on their farm operations.”

BioMar Feeding Tool is available for fish farmers in the markets served by BioMar’s EMEA Division in Europe, Middle East and Africa and comes in eleven language versions: English, Spanish, French, Italian, Greek, Turkish, German, Danish, Swedish, Finnish and Polish.   

The new tool is fit for calculating the feeding needs in farming of rainbow trout, sea bass and sea bream. Research activities continue in order to expand its coverage to more species. BioMar Feeding Tool is compatible with any device that has an internet connection.

Michel Autin added to this: "Our BioFarm teams of technical advisors are appreciated by our customers for technical support services on topics such as feed usage, feeding strategies, veterinarian services, improving farm installations and consultancy in general farm management. The BioMar Feeding Tool is a service on top of our BioFarm services, adding extra value to our customers’ businesses. We hope that fish farmers will warmly welcome this new tool and can utilise it extensively on their farm operations.”
