Aller Aqua Norway AS has been awarded 10 million NOK from the Research Council of Norway

Aller Aqua Norway AS has been awarded 10 million NOK from the Research Council of Norway to advance research on new raw materials from grass protein for aquafeed solutions

We are proud and excited to announce that Aller Aqua Norway AS has received 10 million NOK as one of the three projects in an award from the Research Council of Norway for developing fish feed based on new raw materials.

This funding support will be used to research grass protein as admixture in salmon feed. Aller Aqua Norway AS is based in Bergen and will, in the project, be testing the incorporation of protein flour from meadow plants into salmon feed.

In addition, Aller Aqua Norway AS must investigate nutritional suitability for salmon and ruminants.

This 3-year project has the potential to move the knowledge front within new, sustainable raw material sources for feed that are easy to grow in Norway.
