QRILL Aqua inclusion
to ensure optimal
performance of shrimp diets in a
cost-effective way
This whitepaper is a technical review of how feed formulators can limit the use of expensive raw materials and lower cost using krill as a functional additive.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Krill can:
..help in the reduction of expensive raw materials such as fish meal, squid meal, soy lecithin, cholesterol, fish oil and amino acids to increase feed consumption and growth of shrimp already at low inclusion levels.
..be used as a formulation tool to decrease the reliance on fish meal, which opens the way for alternative ingredients that improve the cost-efficiency and sustainability of feeds.
..be used to reduce formula cost while improving performance in low-fish meal diets, enhance shrimp feed intake in transition or medicated feeds and differentiate price-sensitive feeds.
