Hatchery feeds for aquaculture

These pages contain information pertinent to research and development issues in hatchery feeds, principally for the aquaculture of marine finfish.

 

A workshop, funded by the Fisheries Research and Development Commission (FRDC) was held in March 2000 to develop an R&D plan to more appropriately match the needs of industry.

The objectives of the workshop were:

to assess the status of hatchery feeds, to identify research in progress and to look at research and development needs for the future

to identify constraints to the continued development of hatchery feeds

to identify opportunities to enhance collaboration and information exchange amongst researchers and industry

to develop a national R&D plan for hatchery feeds.

These pages are one outcome of that workshop, and are the vehicle for communication between stakeholders interested in hatchery feeds.
