APA, which is organised by the World Aquaculture Society (WAS), is the biggest aquaculture exhibition in Southeast Asia.
Nutriad sponsored the scientific session entitled "Functional Feeds for Disease Prevention". At this session, chaired by Dr. Peter Coutteau (pictured, left) and Prof. Dr. Rossita Shapawisurely, speakers from the industry and the academic sectors touched on hot topics related to health management and farm practices in Thailand, functional feed additives to prevent fish and shrimp diseases, effects of soymeal on tissue cholesterol status and molting relative gene expression in white shrimp, and effects of garlic against Aeromonas hydrophila in Nile Tilapia.
The topics of these sessions, which were sponsored by Nutriad, allowed attendees to learn more about current market developments and new findings regarding health management.
Said Dr. Coutteau, Nutriad's business unit director of aquaculture: "Nutriad is committed to working in the field with producers and in labs with scientists to provide practical solutions to challenges producers face. We feel it is important to share our knowledge and join industry professional from all over the world each day in making aquaculture production more sustainable, more efficient and more profitable."
