ADM presents its integrated water solutions at Brazil’s Aquishow 2023

ADM will be present at Aquishow 2023, the industry exhibition in São José do Rio Preto (São Paulo, Brazil), where it will showcase its sciencebacked solutions to address the challenges currently facing the aquaculture industry, always following key pillars, including sustainability, performance and profitability, reported the Chicagobased company in the United States. At the ADM booth, aquatic nutrition experts will present offerings focused on the key growth pillars of aquaculture.

The leader in global nutrition, which creates and combines ingredients and flavors for food and beverages, supplements, animal feed, and more, will show at Aquishow its expertise and science-backed solutions from its global portfolio to address the challenges currently facing the aquaculture industry.

Sustainability, performance and profitability

The company, which has offices in the US, Brazil, France and China, among other topics, will inform visitors about sustainability and its holistic approach to meeting the needs of a growing population and reducing environmental impact. “ADM supports the health and nutritional requirements of aquatic species by focusing specifically on sustainable solutions and practices that improve aquaculture production,” they said in a press release.

ADM will also provide information on performance and its nutritional solutions, which cover early life stages through harvest: applying precision nutrition methods to meet the specific needs of species at different stages optimizes growth, physiology and animal health, in addition to improving overall performance and efficiency.

Furthermore, according to ADM members, profitability is key for commercial fish farms of all sizes: it is directly related to feed efficiency, including digestibility and feed conversion ratio, which promote improved growth, size and weight, fillet quality and more.

Tilapia and other fish production

Specifically, ADM will showcase a range of nutritional solutions for tilapia and other fish production, including Presence’s Nutripiscis line of tilapia feeds, precise formulations from Bernaqua’s Socil and Laguna and the WeaN Prime range. Aqua experts will also showcase Aqua Immune One, focused on health and sustainability, which reduces the need for antibiotics while promoting healthy growth.

At the event, customers and interested parties will be able to talk with Eduardo Urbinati, the company’s Aquaculture Products Manager in Brazil, and Ricardo Khatchadourian, ADM’s Director of Animal Nutrition.

Strategic Development Agreement

Some days ago, ADM and Air Protein, a pioneer in air-based nutritional protein that requires no agriculture or farmland, decoupling protein production from traditional supply chain risks, announced that they had entered into a Strategic Development Agreement (SDA) to collaborate on research and development to further advance new and novel proteins for nutrition.

The SDA would combine ADM’s broad nutrition, formulation and re- search expertise with Air Protein’s unique landless agriculture platform to identify ways to scale cost-effective ingredients that enable meat substitutes to deliver on their cost, nutrition, flavor and texture targets. It also provides for the mutually exclusive rights for ADM and Air Protein to collaborate to build and operate the world’s first commercial scale Air Protein plant.
