The registration deadline for The F3 Challenge – Carnivore Edition has been extended to September 15, 2021, to allow for late entrants emerging from COVID-related restrictions, reports The Fish Site.
The F3 - Future of Fish Feed-organized sales competition, is designed to accelerate the development and adoption of fishmeal and fish oil replacements in aquaculture feed.
One entrant competing is Star Milling Co. with its rainbow trout feed containing a barley protein concentrate (BPC) produced by its partner Scoular Co. The patented process Scoular uses to obtain its high-quality, nutrient dense and highly digestible protein source is an ideal complement to replace fishmeal in aquaculture and pet food.
The F3 Challenge aims to make it unnecessary to use wild fish in feeds, so that they can remain in the environment for other species, and aquaculture’s growth becomes unconstrained from wild resource availability, assuring greater food security in the future.
