Effects of dietary moisture content of extruded diets on physical feed quality and nutritional response in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) - A CREATE project
Feed pellets in modern aquaculture must be of high physical quality to withstand impacts during transport, storage and feeding. However, physical quality of feed has been shown to affect feed intake, nutrient digestibility as well as disintegration of pellets in the stomach of rainbow trout. Drying...
