Aquaculture Development 1: Good Aquaculture Feed Manufacturing Practice, Vol. 5

The paper presents technical guidelines for good aquaculture feed manufacturing practice. The guidelines were compiled for the FAO in support of Article 9 of the Code of Conduct for Responsible Fisheries (CCRF) concerning Aquaculture Development. The guidelines cover a number of issues including: ingredient purchasing; processing; bulk storage; handling; monitoring and documentation; employee training and safety; customer relations; and the delivery of finished goods to the farmer. Issues relating to the handling and management of manufactured aquaculture feeds by farmers on the farm are not covered here, as these will be considered within separate guidelines to be produced at a later date.Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations Staff is the author of 'Aquaculture Development 1: Good Aquaculture Feed Manufacturing Practice, Vol. 5', published 2002 under ISBN 9789251046135 and ISBN 9251046131.
