🐟 Aquaculture Nutrition: Fish Feed Essentials
This paragraph introduces the video's focus on aquaculture nutrition, emphasizing the critical role of fish feed, which accounts for 50 to 60% of the total cost in aquaculture production. The video aims to educate viewers on the fundamentals of fish nutrition and how to select or produce fish feed effectively. It mentions that the knowledge gained will enhance the growth potential of fish and improve management practices. The series will cover basic fish nutrition, how to make feed from scratch, ingredients and nutrients, feed production processes, and designing tests for feed quality. Nile tilapia is chosen as the example fish species due to its commercial importance, simple nutritional requirements, and its status as a major food source in regions like Asia and Africa. The paragraph also touches on tilapia's preference for warm water and its ability to consume a variety of feed ingredients, making it an ideal species for aquaculture.
🌾 Ingredients in Fish Feed: Sources and Selection
Paragraph 2 delves into the specific ingredients used in tilapia feed, highlighting the importance of starch, protein, and fat sources. Starch, a key energy source, is derived from common grains like corn, wheat, and rice. The paragraph discusses the necessity of understanding the energy requirements of fish and how to balance ingredients in feed formulation. It introduces both plant-based protein sources, such as soybean meal and wheat gluten, and animal-based sources, including fish meal and meat by-products. The section on fats mentions various oils used in fish feed. Additionally, it addresses the need for supplementary ingredients like fibers, vitamins, minerals, and amino acids to meet all nutritional requirements. The paragraph concludes with advice on selecting ingredients based on quality, price, and availability, emphasizing the importance of using one's senses, studying documentation, and considering moisture levels and anti-nutritional factors.

Transcripts
fish feed comprise of 50 to 60% of total
cost in aquaculture production in this
video about aquaculture nutrition I will
walk you through the key concepts and
criterias which are important to make
the fish feed either you are buying
commercial feed from your local feed
mill company or producing add small
scale by yourself this knowledge of fish
feed and fish nutrition will help you
gain good understanding and will give
you the ability to gain better growth
potential of the fish you are dealing
with and it will increase your ability
to manage your fish we will discuss the
following in the video series of
aquaculture nutrition basic
understanding of the fish nutrition and
requirements how to make feed from
scratch what you need to know to make
fish feed fish feed ingredients and
nutrients
[Music]
you will also learn how to produce the
feed and what are the different
processes which goes in the feed
production finally you will also learn
that how to design a test to test feed
for the fish so let's start in this
course we will take 19 appear as the
example fish species the reason we will
use 9 will appear as an example is
because it is one of the most
commercially farmed fish and its
nutritional requirements are simple and
easy to understand it will give you
greater understanding by mastering the
key concepts in tilapia feed and you can
build your knowledge further upon that
later so let's talk a little bit about
Nile tilapia tilapia is a freshwater
fish which is widely formed in the world
mainly in Asia and Africa as well as
other parts of the world in China
tilapia is second largest species of
fish which is consumed as tilapia is
cheap it is considered as an important
commercial fish and good protein source
for the food security tilapia is formed
from thousands of years and it is
originated from African continent
tilapia is sometimes also referred to as
biblical fish as it is believed to be
fish mentioned in Bible tilapia grows
best at water temperature of 26 to 28
degrees Celsius that's why it is
categorized as warm water fish unlike
other fish species like trout and
Solomon which grows best in cold water
temperatures
therapy is only more fish which can eat
old feed from plant and animal sources
this flexibility makes tilapia a very
good fish species to work with as the
ingredients used in the tilapia feed are
commonly available now let's discuss
about the major components of the
tilapia feed and their common sources
starch proteins fats minerals and
vitamins we will go through them one by
one as you know you need the energy for
star sources as well as the proteins and
fat sources to make the tilapia feed we
are talking about so what are the
sources of these nutrients and how do we
know which one to use in this course we
will only mention those ingredients
which are commonly available before we
talk about star sources by the way what
a stash
to put it in simple words starch is the
active form of energy different fish
need different amount of energy in
tilapia died energy comes from the
sources of starch as well as from the
facts so back to what are the major
sources of stop following are the
commonly used starch sources in the tale
of your field core wheat rice corn
starch and potato starch corn wheat and
rice as well as start extracting from
them are high source of energy which are
commonly used in the tilapia feeds
personalized how-to we don't how much
energy the fish need and how much of
each ingredient we need in the field
after going through the introduction of
all the ingredients we will provide you
with the tilapia feed formulation with
the help of that formulation you will be
able to make your own ill of your feet
or over you will also be provided with
additional material in the form of
downloads to help you understand the
feel pattern so back to ingredients what
are the sources of products in the
pigeon protein mainly comes from two
different sources animal sources and
plant sources first we will talk about
the plant sources following are the main
plant sources for acquiring the products
to be soybean meal Warren eel conclusion
for a dog protein concentrate wheat
gluten peas and sugar cane byproducts
there are plenty of other plant-based
protein sources for the fish feed but we
will only stick to the simple ones for
your understanding
following are the proteins from the
animal origins which are the common ones
fish meal roll feather meal black rod
email animal-based protein meal seafood
diet products meal fish silage and some
few ones such as single cell protein
creamy insect mail and many others
sources of fat for the fish feed
following are some of the sources of fat
which are used in the fish feed fish oil
soybean oil grapeseed oil sunflower oil
almond oil and many others so far we
have gone through the major nutrients
which mainly compose the fish feed but
in the field not all the requirements of
fish nutrition are met and therefore we
don't really need to add some additional
ingredients which are added in the less
amount but their effect is bigger and
lacking them in the fish feed can result
in the poor quality
as well as the performance of the fish
some of such ingredients are following
fiber vitamins minerals and amino acids
and other functional and micro
ingredients which are beyond the topic
of this course selection of the
ingredients there are so many
ingredients which we have named in this
course so far but the question is how do
we know which one to select and use
following are the some of the points
which will help you with choose the
ingredients while making your tilapia
feed quality quality of the ingredient
is the big topic there are many aspects
which affect the quality of the
ingredient when you are choosing there
is normally big variation in the quality
of these ingredients depending on the
which part of the world you are going to
make the feed but some of the common
points which you should be keeping in
mind are following use your three senses
like touch smell and appearance study
the documentation if any carefully check
the moisture level of the ingredient
check for the anti-nutritional factors
which are specific for different
ingredients price of the ingredients and
availability is also the factor you must
be attention
