Feeding Stimulants in Finfish Aquaculture

Aquaculture is a fast-growing industry in the world, and finfish culture has been accounted for the largest share of it. Feed cost in fish farming is very high; hence, the strategy for preventing feed wastage is crucial. Uneaten feed or feed rejection is one of the causes to feed wastage in finfish...
