Marine Biology, Ecology, Nutrition and Fisheries Management and Aquaculture; Uneaten Feed in Marine Cage Culture: Causes, Consequences, and Solutions
Causes of Uneaten Feed in Marine Cage Culture a. Overfeeding b. Inappropriate feed type or size c. Feeding during low appetite periods d. Feed wastage during handling and distribution Consequences of Uneaten Feed in Marine Cage Culture a. Nutrient pollution b. Harmful algal blooms c. Reduced water quality and oxygen depletion d. Disease outbreaks Solutions to Reduce Uneaten Feed in Marine Cage Culture a. Regular monitoring of fish appetite and behavior b. Adjusting feeding regimes to match fish needs c. Using high-quality feed and reducing waste during distribution d. Implementing gastric evacuation modelling in developing of feeding region for cultured fish.
Overall, a well-designed feeding regime can help ensure that fish in marine cage culture are healthy and that environmental pollution is minimized. The amount of feed/meal size under specific environmental condition can be determined using gastric evacuation modelling and thus the data gathered with gastric evacuation modelling can be used in automatic feeders that will ensure to avoid the under-over feeding of fish.
