Assessing the Nutritional Requirements of Farmed Fish for Optimal Growth and Development
Abstract
Farmed fish production has grown in importance as a component of supplying the world's need for seafood. It is crucial to comprehend the nutritional needs of farmed fish and give them the best diets possible to ensure their sustained growth and development. The main points of evaluating the nutritional needs of farmed fish to support their growth and development are summarized in this study. The global development community needs to meet the Goals for reducing worldwide malnutrition. Scientists from several fields are beginning to agree that fish is essential for food security and nutrition. However, this 'fish as food' viewpoint must still be reflected in financial priorities for innovation or regulations. When viewed from the point of view of the food system, fish can inspire creative initiatives and expenditures that support nutrient- Conscious and socially just aquaculture and catch fishing. The usual view of fish as a natural resource, which emphasizes aims for economic growth and biodiversity protection, contrasts with this. The research requirements and policy directions for achieving this are highlighted in this study. Recognizing and enhancing the significance of fish in lowering malnutrition and starvation is necessary for investments to be made in capture farming and fishing by governments, international development organizations, and society. Besides financial gain and wildlife preservation, this will offer further long-term growth motivation.
