Fish meal is a high-protein feed ingredient made from fish that are processed and dried. It is commonly used in animal feed, particularly for poultry, swine, and aquaculture, due to its rich nutrient content, including essential amino acids and omega-3 fatty acids. The production of fish meal involves cooking, pressing, and drying fish, often by-products from the fishing industry. This process helps to preserve the nutrients and create a stable product that can be stored for long periods. Fish meal plays a crucial role in sustainable animal farming by providing a valuable protein source.
