Feed market grows globally

THE Alltech Global Feed Survey published on January 25 showed that aquaculture continued its year-over-year growth with a gain of 12 per cent in feed production in 2016. Increased production from Turkey, Germany, the U.K. and France contributed to a strong performance from the European region. Africa increased production by almost 1 million tonnes, while Asia maintained its volume. The increase in aquaculture feed correlates to the consumption of farmed fish.
