Seaweeds are an under-used natural and sustainable resource in the feed industry, both for aquatic feeds and terrestrial feeds. Analysis of seaweeds shows them to be a rich source of many trace ingredients, as well as having a significant quantity of high quality 'macro' ingredients. Ocean Harvest Technology has been involved in the research and development of a complex mix of seaweed powders that can be used to make a 'chemical-free' feed product, and have shown in rigorous commercial trials with fish and shrimp significant improvements in health, growth rate, feed conversion ratios and resistance to disease.
