Original: Study: Raising leaner salmon cut feed costs by $100 million per year

A new study finds that raising leaner salmon has reduced feed costs by roughly $100 million per year. Feed is the largest expense in salmon aquaculture, so leaner fish that require less feed while maintaining growth offer significant savings for the industry. The findings are drawing attention from aquaculture and feed sectors watching costs and sustainability.

Why now: The aquaculture industry is focused on cutting feed costs, its biggest expense, and this study quantifies a large saving.
