Rajfishmeal and Oil Company Malpe, Udupi, Karnataka

The stick water that is let out after the separation of oil from the centrifuges is fed into "Multiple effect evaporators" to prepare "concentrated fish soluble" and stored in silos for storage before dispatching to poultry or aqua feed purposes.

An inventory product produced from the stick water/ protein water after parting fish oil during the production process by solublizing/ evaporation methods. This has been a very good substitute for the fishmeal for the animal feeds as it contains a larger amount of moisture and contains numerous unidentified growth promoting substances/ nutrients normally aminoacids/ trace elements/ minerals that are essential for the rapid growth of animals/ pets.

Since fish itself is a highly proteinaceous commodity, it's been preferred on behalf of other food stuffs. Similar to fish the fish meal also imparts proteins of high nutritive value, because of the presence of 22 essential amino acids including the most important amino acid- Lysine, which of course, is rarely present in other feeds food stuffs. The fish meal removes the moisture which in turn increases the concentration of proteins available for the growth. The meal is also rich in B- group Vitamin namely - Riboflavin, Pantothenic acid, Niacin and Choline. The powThe powdered fish meal is rich in minerals like Calcium, Phosphorus, Iodine etc.

the fish oil being a good source of essential fatty acids shelters two important contents called epa (eicosapentaenoic acid) and dha (docosahexaenoic acid).

The protein efficiency ratio (PER) has been worked out to find the growth studies in animals and farm grown animals. Unlike other vegetable protein meals, fish meal contains very less fibre content which is useful in getting the food easily digested and also for the energy calculation.
