Rethinking Salmon Nutrition Requirements | Ep. 68

In this episode of The Aquaculture Podcast Show, we explore why traditional vitamin and trace mineral recommendations may no longer meet the needs of modern Atlantic salmon production. As farming systems, feed ingredients, and environmental challenges evolve, nutritional strategies must adapt to support health, welfare, and resilience. Key insights include mineral bioavailability, stress management, and nutrient requirements during critical production stages. Listen now on all major platforms!
