Cutting FCR in
High-Energy Aqua Feeds

LPC + VS1437 · the energy-utilization route

Industry Background

The challenge

Aqua feed energy density keeps climbing — and with it, oil inclusion. But fish digest added oil inefficiently, especially at high inclusion and in cooler water: undigested fat is FCR you paid for and excreted.

Meanwhile the attractant profile of the feed decides how much of the ration is eaten before pellets sink and leach. Intake speed and fat utilization together set your real FCR.
