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, drying, and grinding fish or fish by-products. This process helps to preserve the nutrients while reducing moisture content. Fish meal is valued for its ability to enhance growth and health in livestock and fish, making it an important component in the animal nutrition industry.
