The Alltech Aqua program consists of natural, nutritional solutions tailored to address challenges impacting modern aquaculture production and profitability. It encompasses all of Alltech’s efforts to ensure customer satisfaction from the quality of our products to our educational workshops and cutting edge research, our strong relationships with world class consultants and everything in between. Our goal is to give our customers an advantage in this competitive marketplace.
Our approach involves looking at the whole production process – from broodstock nutrition, egg quality to growth and performance and final flesh quality. Our nutritional solutions improve production by optimizing performance, maintaining gut health and building natural defences. The Alltech Aqua program is designed to protect your species and your bottom line.
Our vision for the pathway to profitability includes fine-tuning of the nutritional requirements of the species: improving gastrointestinal efficiency, digestibility and nutrient uptake, improving species health and livability and increasing focus on providing products desired by the consumer.
The use of technologies, such as nutrigenomics, which accurately evaluate the impact of nutritional ingredients on key genes can be central, not only for improving animal health and performance, but also to improve flesh quality. Taste, moisture retention, freshness, fat content, and color may all be influenced by the presence or absence of nutrients in the diet, and the timing of their delivery.
The key factors that will enable sustainable and profitable aquacultural companies to advance into the future will be their ability to offer tasty, safe and attractive products to the consumers and to generate them according to the consumer’s expectations. Offering demonstrably better products is a clear pathway to profitability.
