Start year 2021 End year 2024 Funding (€) € 386,500 Website https://www.nordforsk.org/projects/non-food-organic-resources-based-feeds-optimised-salmon-until-post-smolt-stages-non Summary Sustainable expansion of the aquaculture industry has to take place with use of third generation feed ingredients. Examples of such ingredients include microalgae, single cell organisms and insect meal. The NON-Fôr project aims to build upon the state-of-the-art knowledge from previous EU and National projects and develop improved practices in feed manufacturing technology to promote the use of third generation ingredients in critical life stages of Atlantic salmon - startfeeding, during smoltification and in post smolt production. The project aims to study the potential of insect meals as replacers of fish meal and oil, and algae oil as replacer of fish oil at start feeding and during smoltification. The project will also offer an opportunity for start up companies to demonstrate the quality of their products as well as testing of commercially available sustainable alternatives to fish oil. The consortium’s Multi-Actor Approach is oriented to the needs and demands of the aquaculture industry, improving knowledge exchange, innovation, communication and dissemination and thus increasing the final impact of the project.
