Salmon & trout are a widely used source of fishmeal & fish oil with a value of USD 2,362.5 million in 2016. This is due to the reason that salmon & trout fish farmers have increased their salmon cultivation to satisfy the growing demand of customers globally. Moreover, fishmeal is used in salmon & trout feed as one of the important ingredients that help to provide essential nutritional supplements to the fish.

With the rise in aquaculture production, large amounts of fishmeal are diverted from terrestrial livestock feed to aquatic feed. Fish oil is the principal source of both energy and essential fatty acids ; therefore, its usage in the aquaculture industry has increased. Fishmeal & fish oil offer many benefits to aquatic animals such as improved immunity against diseases, higher survival & growth, and reduced incidences of deformities.

In terms of livestock, the aquatic animals segment accounted for the largest share of the global fishmeal & fish oil market in 2016. The incorporation of fishmeal into diets of aquatic animals helps to reduce pollution from wastewater effluents by providing greater nutrient digestibility. Fishmeal, when added to the feed of aquatic animals, increases feed efficiency and enhances nutrient uptake, digestion, and absorption. This has resulted in an increase in the use of fishmeal & fish oil for aquatic animals.
