| Summary |
Most of Australia's farmed Atlantic salmon are grown in sea farm pens until they weigh around 5kg at two-and-a-half-years old and are ready for harvesting. During their lifetime in the farm the salmon are fed fishmeal. Fishmeal is a powder or pellet produced in factories from proteins such as small wild fish (e.g. anchovies), krill, shrimp, and/or fish, poultry or vegetable oils, which are combined with a composition of a variety of amino acids. In the factory the fishmeal ingredients are ground, pressed and dehydrated to form pellets that are packaged and fed to farmed salmon multiple times a day |
