WWF-US Aquaculture Feed Strategy
Summary
The WWF-US Aquaculture Feed Strategy aims to mitigate environmental degradation caused by current aquaculture feed production, such as deforestation and greenhouse gas emissions. The strategy focuses on five key areas: sustainable feed solutions (including alternative proteins and precision feeding), climate and environmental impact reduction, nutrient recovery from waste, animal health and welfare, and the use of AI for economic growth and innovation.
Key insights
- Current aquaculture feed production contributes to environmental degradation through deforestation, greenhouse gas emissions, and nutrient pollution.
- WWF-US aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from feed and aquaculture production by 30%.
- The strategy proposes several alternative protein and oil sources to reduce the environmental footprint and dependency on forage fish, specifically mentioning insect by-products, mycoproteins, single-cell proteins, algae-based solutions, microalgae, and genetically engineered canola and soy.
- The strategy emphasizes the use of technology and waste recovery, including AI-driven customized feed solutions and the integration of agricultural residues, poultry wastewater, and fish sludge into feed production.
