As the global population continues to grow, a 30 million tonne projected increase in aquaculture production means there will be a need for an additional 45 million tonnes of raw materials. So where will they come from? Skretting is exploring the world of raw materials in an online series, deepening on a selection of our ongoing activities in this arena while exploring novel ingredients and some of our most important partnerships.
Today, Skretting is the market leader for diets specifically designed for recirculating aquaculture systems. Recirculating Aquaculture Systems (RAS) are land-based aquaculture facilities that reuse water by cycling it through a filtration system so it can be used again.
Safe, good quality protein is essential for the growing world population, and aquaculture has the potential to provide this. We have compiled a list of the most frequently asked questions about aquaculture and aquaculture feeds to provide a better understanding of our industry and the measures we take to fulfil our mission - 'Feeding the Future'.
At Skretting’s Aquaculture Research Centre (ARC) curiosity is our passion. Our ultimate goal is to see the research we conduct implemented into innovative and sustainable solutions for the aquaculture industry.
Skretting has implemented dynamic quality assurance and control at every stage of our production. We do this to ensure feed and food safety, quality, and to preserve our leadership in the global aquafeed market.
