Report Code : CVMI0605202506 | Published Date : May 6, 2025
1. Industry Overview
The global aquaculture liquid feeds market is projected to grow from 1.2 billion in 2024 to 2.8 billion by 2030 (CAGR: 14.7%), driven by intensifying aquaculture practices and the need for precision nutrition. Liquid feeds offer superior digestibility, reduced waste, and enhanced growth performance compared to traditional pellets.
Key Trends (2024):
- High-Density Farming: Liquid feeds enhance feed conversion ratios (FCR) by 15-20% in RAS systems.
- Functional Additives: 40% of liquid feeds now include probiotics, immunostimulants, or vaccines.
- Sustainability Push: Reduce phosphorus discharge by 30% compared to dry feeds (FAO, 2023).
