Aquaculture Nutrition Subprogram: assessment of growth performance under limiting environmental conditions

This research has advanced our understanding of how fish growth is influenced by nutrition, by environment and by the interaction between nutritional and environmental factors. When the research started the majority of nutrition research considered the performance of feeds under optimum...

Need

The first phase of the Aquaculture Nutrition Subprogram (ANS) has demonstrated a strong need for technical inputs into the strategic direction and methodology applied to the nutrition components of both species and non-species based research programs. Without a coordinated subprogram approach to this research portfolio, the FRDC would have been unable to develop a collaborative program with the Grains Research and Development Corporation to characterise and produce vegetable protein alternatives to fish meal, nor would it have been able to standardize the methodologies and research approach for aquaculture nutrition in Australia with involvement from all relevant scientists. The subprogram is also addressing “market failure” in the areas of training and communication in the field of aquaculture nutrition, with a firm emphasis on empowering end-users of aquafeeds with basic nutritional and feed processing knowledge. The ANS needs to be maintained in a similar format to the first phase in order to capitalize on many of the initiatives that were implemented during the first 3 years of the project, but with less emphasis on the facilitation and maintenance on a core of research projects.

The need for on-going research into aquaculture nutrition and the need to maintain or enhance the technical standard and direction of this research is emphasized by the fact that Australian aquaculture industries still have a heavy reliance on imported nutrition technologies, feeds and ingredients for the supply of nutrients to target species. This includes feed manufacturing technologies, ingredients such as bait fish, fish meals, crustacean meals and fish oils, and complete feeds such as those utilised by the prawn industry. Not only does this create issues in relation to imported disease risks, continuity of supply and cost, but it means that many local products are being under utilised. Given the broad range of issues associated with the provision of aquaculture diets, the real cost of aquaculture diets in Australia will only be reduced through the delivery of well-targetted, strategic research. The infancy of the Australian aquaculture industries also means that a coordinated research approach is required to maximise the outcomes from research investment in the area.

Objectives

1. Provide expert guidance and direction for aquaculture nutrition research in Australia through maintenance of a strategic plan, provision of technical reviews and inputs into project development.
2. Identify nutrition research priorities that are not being addressed through existing portfolios and initiate research projects in this area.
3. Promote capacity building and human capital development through the provision of training and resources in aquaculture nutrition and aquafeed manufacturing.
4. Develop risk management strategies as required for various aquaculture sectors in relation to nutrition to assist the research priority setting process.
5. Act as an identifiable point of contact for aquaculture nutrition research in Australia and improve the aquaculture nutrition skills base on Australia.
6. Improve communication of nutrition research outcomes and current nutrition research between scientists, aquaculturalists, ingredient suppliers and feed manufacturers utilising annual workshops, facilitated planning meetings and conferences.

Summary

The Aquaculture Nutrition Subprogram was established in 2001 to maintain communication and momentum in aquaculture nutrition research in Australia, and to ensure focused investment in this research discipline and optimum return on research investment. This has continued over the past 3 years as a result of activities conducted as part of this latest application. These have included funding application and final report reviews, facilitation and participation in conferences, meetings with industry groups and representatives to develop strategic plans with respect to nutrition research, support and advice with the development of research projects and the development of a nutrition Masterclass. In addition, a priority mapping workshop has outlined current nutrition research priorities and defined new priorities for implementation between 2007-2012 to ensure research stays focused and relevant into the future.

Aquafin CRC - Atlantic Salmon Aquaculture Subprogram: development of an AGD vaccine: phase II

Amoebic gill disease (AGD) is considered to be the most significant health problem for farmed Atlantic salmon in Tasmania, costing the industry an estimated $15-20 million pa. It is caused by the presence of Neoparamoeba spp. on the gills and if untreated can lead to death. Although some control of...
