The WiseFeed project is building an integrated network of research groups from the academia and partners in SME and large enterprises with the overall aim of improving performance and sustainability of aquafeeds for fish production. The project is organized as a collaborative network with staff secondments to share knowledge and ideas, and conduct joint research in disciplines ranging from building a knowledge in basic physiology and mechanistic modelling through selection of raw materials, applied testing of feed producing technology and feeding trials.

The final applied aim is to implement the findings into innovative products and services in the industrial partners.

SPAROS contributes to all working packages (WPs) with expertise in feed ingredients and additives in diet formulation, ingredient processing, feed technology, nutrient retention and growth, digestibility studies and mechanistic modelling.
