FAQ
Fishmeal is made from small pelagic marine fish such as menhaden, herring, anchovies and sardines. The small fish are ground into a fine powder and the oil and water are then pressed out of the mixture. The resulting solids are cooked and further pulverized to produce a highly nutritious fish meal.
Fish meal is typically packaged in various types of containers to ensure its quality and prevent oxidation. Common packaging options include jute bags, multiwall paper bags with a polythene lining, and HDPE woven bags with a liner. This packaging helps protect the fish meal from exposure to air, as fish oils, being highly unsaturated, are prone to oxidation. By utilizing appropriate packaging materials, the fish meal remains safeguarded and maintains its nutritional value.
Fishmeal is a powdered substance obtained by cooking, pressing, drying and grinding fresh, raw fish. Fish oil, on the other hand, is a liquid obtained from cooked fish. Both fishmeal and fish oil are derived from the exploitation of short-lived, fast-growing populations of small, bony and oily fish that are not consumed on a large scale by humans. These fish species are specifically selected for their suitability for producing fishmeal and fish oil. Additionally, by taking advantage of these underutilized fish stocks, the fishing industry can maximize resource utilization and minimize waste.
Fishmeal is widely used in animal feed due to its impressive protein concentration. Additionally, it serves as a valuable source of essential minerals such as calcium, phosphorus and various other nutrients. Due to its high protein content and balanced amino acid profile, fishmeal is particularly popular in aquaculture feed and meets the nutritional needs of aquatic animals. Incorporating fishmeal into animal feed, particularly in aquaculture, helps support healthy growth, development and overall well-being of animals.
