What an unforgettable panel discussion we had at NASF on the use of Insects ingredients in the aquaculture sector. The engagement was fantastic, thanks to the Mentimeter questions that sparked lively discussions.   During the discussion, we asked: "What do you see as the biggest obstacle hindering the wider adoption of insect-based ingredients in the aquaculture industry?" 44% of the audience highlighted insufficient scaling in the supply chain as the major challenge.   At Protix, we have been actively working to address it. Since 2019, our first industrial-scale plant has been operational, and we've been focused on making technological advancements to ensure a consistent supply of top-quality products. Our efforts haven't gone unnoticed; recently, major organizations like Tyson Foods and the European Investment Bank (EIB) have recognized our progress and invested in Protix to establish insect ingredient factories in the US and Poland.   Now, it's time for us to come together and create a clear roadmap with feed suppliers and their stakeholders to attract further investments for scaling up. Connect with us to be part of this exciting journey. Join the future of food today! #NASFBergen #SustainableSeafood #Aquaculture #insectbasedfeed #BetterTogether

🌊🌍 Fresh News from Rennes, France! 🌍🌊 Our team is attending the Journées de la Recherche de la Filière Piscicole yesterday and today. Hervé Lucien-Brun, our aquaculture expert, presented on the apparent digestibility of different raw material sources in rainbow trout with and without fermentation extracts. Take Home Message from His Presentation: - Replacing marine raw material while maintaining optimal performance and reducing feed costs is crucial. - Including Jefo Solution for aquaculture at 180 g/t in formulations helps replace marine raw materials, increase protein absorption, reduce feed costs, and minimize environmental impact. To learn more about Jefo Solutions for aquaculture, please contact our team. This important event is organized by Itavi, Institut Technique de l'Aviculture, Pisciculture et Cuniculture, INRAE, INSTITUT FRANCAIS DE RECHERCHE POUR L'EXPLOITATION DE LA MER - IFREMER, Comité Interprofessionnel des Produits de l'Aquaculture CIPA, Fédération Française d'Aquaculture, SYSAAF, L'Institut Agro, and the Ministère de l'Agriculture et de la Souveraineté alimentaire of France. #Aquaculture #Research #JefoNutrition #SustainableFarming #Innovation #Rennes2024

Last year, our audience said they had just seen the tip of the iceberg of what's happening in China. This year, we will take our understanding of China's production landscape one level deeper with renowned experts such as Luca Micciche, Robins McIntosh, and Fu-Ci GUO. We will also have a panel to better understand the farmer's sentiment in other Asian countries amidst the aggressive growth of Ecuador's farmers. Who better to listen to than BALASUBRAMANIAM V, Loc Tran and Rizky Darmawan
