Dirigido

The course is designed for a maximum of 30 participants with a university degree, and is intended for professionals of the feed industry and fish farming sector, as well as for technical advisors and researchers in the field.

Objetivos

Raise your awareness of the main current challenges of fish nutrition, feeding and health;
Acquire advanced knowledge on fish nutritional physiology;
Increase your understanding of the role of conventional and novel ingredients in aquafeed formulation;
Acknowledge the importance of aquafeeds and feeding strategies as tools for improving fish robustness;
Know about functional ingredients and the application of selective breeding for feed efficiency;
Understand the role of the gut microbiome on fish health and its modulation mechanisms through functional ingredients;
Acquire experience on practical feed formulation at commercial and research level, and on the evaluation of feeding efficiency, fish performance and robustness;
Be updated on the feed ingredient legal framework and most relevant certification schemes.
