Implication

Review evaluates plant-based protein alternatives to fish meal in aquaculture diets, highlighting processing strategies that mitigate anti-nutritional compounds to improve feed sustainability.

Key Points

To review the nutritional value, limitations, and processing strategies of sustainable plant feedstuffs used to replace fish meal in aquaculture diets.
Evaluated the nutritional profiles and bioactive compound contents of traditional plant feedstuffs, including oilseeds, legumes, and cereal grains, alongside novel processed products.
Synthesized technical strategies and processing interventions used to optimize nutrient bioavailability and reduce anti-nutritional factors for farmed fish species.
Identified oilseeds, legumes, and cereal grains as viable, sustainable protein and energy sources capable of replacing conventional marine fish meal.
Showed that targeted processing technologies successfully mitigate the adverse physiological effects of anti-nutritional bioactive compounds in plant feedstuffs.
Highlighted the necessity of lipid supplementation to maintain optimal fatty acid profiles required for fish metabolic health and human dietary benefits.
