Development and Scaling of Sustainable Feeds for Resilient Aquatic Food Systems in Sub-Saharan Africa

In an attempt to overcome the challenges facing the aquatic food system, the Fasa project aims to identify and increase the quality of local ingredients to help feed millers produce local, sustainable feeds that meet the nutrient requirements of local strains of tilapia and catfish in SSA. The project goal is to develop low-cost, highly nutritious fish feeds based on novel ingredients and enable 5,000 smallholder fish farmers in 3 African countries to test and adopt these ingredients and feeds, leading to increased income, improved food security, and reduced waste and pollution. Additional research activities will be completed in Malaysia and Sweden.
