Consideraciones para ingredientes alternativos en alimentos acuícolas
Una clave para expandir la acuacultura es encontrar fuentes alternativas de proteínas y aceites. La suplementación o sustitución de aceite de pescado en los alimentos acuícolas con fuentes alternativas de lípidos – semillas oleaginosas, microalgas, insectos y otros - parece posible si se pueden satisfacer los requisitos de ácidos grasos esenciales.
