FEEDFIRST aims at an integrated solution for introducing inert microdiets at the onset of the first feeding of marine fish larvae reared in aquaculture, which is a critical stage due to the poor acceptance and low ingestion and digestibility of commercial microdiets by such larvae. The integrated solution proposed by FEEDFIRST includes innovative microdiets with high digestibility and low leaching.
