BioMar joins AQUA 2018 in France as Gold Sponsor

BioMar is again a Gold Sponsor in the ongoing AQUA 2018 in Montpellier, France (Aug. 25-29), where it will present its latest findings on various topics related to specially functional ingredients for aquaculture feeds that can help fish and shrimp to better resist challenging periods.

In the trade show area, BioMar can be found at booth No. 26+27+45+46. During the trade show, BioMar will put extra emphasis on the following topics:

Boosting resistance of sea bream - the sooner, the better

BioMar expands its range of Forte functional feeds for stressful periods in sea bream farming with the inclusion of INICIO Forte in 1.5 mm. BioMar's Forte products are targeted especially at gill parasites (Sparicotyle) in sea bream. Its latest trial results confirm that with INICIO Forte 1.5 mm, feeding strategy can start as small as 3 grammes. From 30 grammes the feeding strategy continues with grower feeds EFICO Forte to help sea bream endure the hostile environmental conditions.

Sophisticated hatchery products for demanding fish and shrimp

BioMar is this year celebrating 15 years of excellence in hatchery feeds and will continue to invest in this segment. BioMar recently streamlined its product portfolio and adopted new innovations and functional raw materials in its LARVIVA hatchery ranges for fish and shrimp, to maximise health and performance. Furthermore, it recently opened a state-of-the-art marine fish larval trial unit that not only allows for larval rearing but also the production of live feed.

Sustainability begins with the feed

Sustainability in the aquaculture industry begins with the feed and the company extends its invitation to learn more about how BioMar can enable aquaculture farmers and the wider value chain to have a more complete understanding of the sustainability of every raw material found in aquaculture feed.

AQUA 2018 is co-organised by the European Aquaculture Society and the World Aquaculture Society. It highlights the latest aquaculture research and innovations to underpin continued growth of this food production sector.
