Gellyfeed is a name of a two-step production process of moist diet for farmed fish. The process is developed to reduce cost of preserving byproducts and to make a physical strong pellet. Research confirm that alkaline preserved raw material and long-time storing damage the protein quality and make the raw material not suitable to use in moist diet. Maximum storing time of alkaline preserved by‐products is 14 days. The process can be practical for eliminating harm from bacteria, viruses or parasites. The alternative methods for storing by‐products are freezing or silage production. Moist diet produced from by‐products from the northern region of the West fjords in Iceland seems to be economically promising option. The legislation from the European Union does not forbid using byproducts from wild cod as a raw material in production of moist diet.
