Bedre foder resulterer i bedre mad til os alle
Hos BioMar forstår vi, at rejsen til enestående fisk og rejer begynder længe før, den når bordet, og den starter med det foder, der giver næring til fisk og rejer.

Corn gluten meal (CGM) is a high-protein byproduct of the wet milling process of corn, where starch and oil are extracted, leaving behind protein-rich leftovers. Despite its name, it’s not the kind of “gluten” that gives bread its stretch - that’s wheat gluten. Think of corn gluten as more of a protein cousin, not a culinary sibling. Despite its name, corn gluten contains no gluten as found in wheat, rye, or barley. The word “gluten” here just refers to protein content.
Corn gluten meals are packed with value in aquaculture nutrition. With 60–70% protein on a dry matter basis, plus functional compounds like carotenoids, CGM is doing a lot of hard work in modern fish and shrimp diets. Fish don’t just need protein; they need digestible protein. One of corn gluten’s major strengths is its well-balanced amino acid profile, with good levels of methionine, which is often limited in other plant proteins. Its high digestibility makes it an excellent contributor to growth performance in many aquaculture species.
Additionally, CGM contains natural antioxidants, which support overall fish health and oxidative stability. Its low starch content makes it suitable for species with limited carbohydrate tolerance. It also contributes essential micronutrients such as B vitamins, phosphorus, and trace minerals, supporting metabolic function and bone health.
CGM is obviously a sustainability star. It repurposes a by-product of corn processing, reducing waste, and cuts reliance on overfished or environmentally costly ingredients like fishmeal and soybean meal. In a world where fishmeal is increasingly expensive and environmentally questionable, CGM shines as a sustainable, circular economic solution:
· It’s a byproduct, meaning it adds value to what would otherwise be waste.
· It reduces reliance on wild-caught fishmeal, supporting ocean conservation.
· It cuts pressure on land use and deforestation
· It’s cost-effective and widely available, especially in corn-producing regions.
In essence, CGM helps aquaculture become more efficient, ethical, and eco-conscious without compromising on performance.

UdforskUdviklingen i næringsstoffer til akvakulturfoder
Fisk og skaldyr er meget tilpasningsdygtige og har brug for omkring 40 essentielle næringsstoffer, som kan komme fra forskellige råmaterialer, herunder marine ingredienser, animalske produkter, korn og nye kilder. Denne tilpasningsevne er afgørende for branchens vækst og vil give mulighed for forskellige foderformuleringer.

UdforskVi er, hvad vi spiser... spiser
I dag har forbindelsen mellem det, vi spiser, og hvordan det påvirker vores helbred, aldrig været tydeligere. Når det drejer sig om fisk og skaldyr, er denne forbindelse endnu mere betydningsfuld. Det er ikke bare »vi er, hvad vi spiser« - men »vi er, hvad vi spiser, spiser.« Opdrættede fisks og rejers kost har direkte indflydelse på deres næringsværdi, hvilket gør kvaliteten af fiskefoderet til en afgørende faktor for at sikre, at de fisk og skaldyr, vi spiser, er nærende, sunde og produceret på en ansvarlig måde.

UdforskStay in control of oxygen fluctuations
In fish farming, large fluctuations in the oxygen content of water have a negative impact on the well-being of the fish and consequently on its growth. High water temperatures or rich vegetation in the water are important alarming factors to observe, especially in summer periods.

UdforskThe jet platform – efficient and simple oxygen enrichment
The oxygen content of the water is often the most prominent limiting factor in intensive fish farming. It is a well-known fact that poor oxygen content means that it is not possible to utilise the full potential of both the fish and the feed. A jet platform is an example of an efficient and yet simple mechanical method for oxygen enrichment of water.
