Feed production

Fish feed looks like ordinary pellets, and contain protein, fats, carbohydrates – and tonnes of knowledge

Forage fisheries

Forage fishery dependency is a challenge for a growing fish farming industry. In recent years, EWOS has lowered the marine content in its feed and our research into ‘marine independence’ provides the knowledge for further significant reduction in future if necessary.

Functional feeds

Functional feeds provide benefits other than those merely nutritional and are used to support the fish well-being and reducing the risk of disease in fish stocks.
