Abstract

The aquaculture industry urgently requires sustainable protein sources to address the environmental, economic, and ethical challenges of conventional fishmeal. Rising feed costs, particularly for protein-rich ingredients, highlight the need for cost-effective, high-quality, and resource-efficient alternatives. Insect-based feeds, such as black soldier fly (BSF) larvae, and microalgae have emerged as promising solutions. BSF larvae provide protein, lipids, and minerals, offering significant cost savings and enhanced growth in aquaculture species. Similarly, microalgae, rich in essential amino acids, lipids, vitamins, and pigments, supports digestibility and aquaculture sustainability while lowering production costs and environmental impacts. Microalgae biorefineries further promote a circular economy by maximizing resource utilization and minimizing waste. This review examines the potential of insect-based and microalgae feeds as sustainable alternatives to fishmeal, addressing their advantages and challenges. It emphasizes their role in enhancing aquaculture production, improving resource efficiency, and contributing to global food security.

不浪费，不匮乏：为未来水产养殖释放有机和生态友好型昆虫和藻类资源的创新潜力

水产养殖业迫切需要可持续的蛋白质来源，以解决传统鱼粉带来的环境、经济和伦理挑战。饲料成本不断上升，特别是富含蛋白质的饲料成本不断上升，这凸显了对具有成本效益、高质量和资源节约型替代品的需求。以昆虫为基础的饲料，如黑兵蝇（BSF）幼虫和微藻已经成为有希望的解决方案。BSF幼虫提供蛋白质、脂质和矿物质，可显著节省成本并促进水产养殖物种的生长。同样，微藻富含必需氨基酸、脂类、维生素和色素，有助于提高消化率和水产养殖的可持续性，同时降低生产成本和对环境的影响。微藻生物精炼厂通过最大限度地利用资源和最大限度地减少浪费，进一步促进循环经济。本文综述了昆虫饲料和微藻饲料作为鱼粉可持续替代品的潜力，阐述了它们的优势和挑战。它强调了它们在加强水产养殖生产、提高资源效率和促进全球粮食安全方面的作用。图形抽象

期刊介绍： Aquaculture International is an international journal publishing original research papers, short communications, technical notes and review papers on all aspects of aquaculture. The Journal covers topics such as the biology, physiology, pathology and genetics of cultured fish, crustaceans, molluscs and plants, especially new species; water quality of supply systems, fluctuations in water quality within farms and the environmental impacts of aquacultural operations; nutrition, feeding and stocking practices, especially as they affect the health and growth rates of cultured species; sustainable production techniques; bioengineering studies on the design and management of offshore and land-based systems; the improvement of quality and marketing of farmed products; sociological and societal impacts of aquaculture, and more. This is the official Journal of the European Aquaculture Society.
