Improving aquaculture in Zambia: A path to poverty alleviation and nutritional security
In Zambia, aquaculture is being championed as a solution to pressing challenges like poverty, hunger, and undernutrition while also fostering rural economic growth. Among the various fish species Zambian farmers cultivated, tilapia is the most prevalent. However, raising tilapia requires an adequate supply of essential nutrients like proteins, amino acids, vitamins, and energy sourced from carbohydrates and fats. To achieve optimal productivity, farmers must ensure their fish receive high-quality feed in sufficient quantities.
