“…While Li et al 147 also concluded that channel catfish fingerlings ( Ictalurus punctatus ) could be fed with a diet containing up to 32% porcine meal, the authors showed weight gain was not significantly affected compared with the control dietary treatment group. FCR, however, increased from 1.39 in the basal control group to 1.54 in the experimental diet (a 21% increase).…”

The global increase in seafood demand has resulted in significant growth in aquaculture production in a wide range of aquatic species. Consequently, this has led to an industry‐wide need to find sustainable feed ingredients that would meet the nutritional requirements used in aquafeeds. The associated dependency on plant by‐products as the major alternatives has brought concerns to aquaculture through associated carbon footprint, increase deforestation and arable land use to meet the demands of plant proteins and oils, and the constraining effects of plant by‐products has on farmed aquatic animal growth and health. Animal by‐products (ABPs) are produced as a direct consequence of terrestrial animal production and the associated meat processing industries. The link between feeding meat and bone meal (MBM) and bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) outbreak in Europe during the 1980s resulted in a ban of its use animal feeds. This led to a radical overhaul of the rendering industry, including the use of only low‐risk ABP and the development of rendering processes to reduce the risk of prions that causes BSE to enter the food chain. The resulting processed animal proteins (PAPs) are considered safe to be used in farmed animal feeds. This review examines how ABP production has changed due to the BSE outbreak, leading to the current commercially available PAP products for aquafeed use. We evaluated how these products can be effectively used as viable protein sources in aquaculture and examine their limitations and the potential advancements that could lead to a more circular food production system.

“…Another study of note, only because it was the first report and may be the only one, showed that catfish can be grown from fry to foodfish organically (M. H. Li, Robinson, Mischke, Torrans, & Bosworth, ). Recent studies with channel and hybrid catfish fingerlings show that dietary protein level can be reduced from 35% to at least 32%, and fish meal can be replaced by pork meat and bone meal with or without blood meal for fish raised from about 2 g in fertilized ponds (M. H. Li, Wise, Mischke, & Lucas, ; M. H. Li, Wise, Mischke, Kumar, & Lucas, ; M. H. Li et al (n.d.)). Several studies were also conducted on strain evaluations, as well as a variety of other topics.…”

Although a concerted effort in catfish nutrition research in the United States did not begin until the late 1950s/early 1960s, the genesis of both the catfish industry and catfish nutrition research is rooted in studies conducted early in the 20th century. Thus, a historical view delineating the progression of channel catfish, Ictalurus punctatus, nutrition from 1900 to the present is given. Notable nutrition research programs, as well as significant events and accomplishments, will be examined. K E Y W O R D S channel catfish, diet development, history, nutrition, research J World Aquacult Soc. 2020;51:93-118.wileyonlinelibrary.com/journal/jwas 93 feedstuff or, at best, crude mixtures of animal and plant materials. Early feeding trials were rather unrefined and were conducted largely on a trial-and-error basis. This was not ideal, but it was the only practical approach as nutritional data were essentially nonexistent. After all, a feedstuff or mixture of feedstuffs contained a variety of essential nutrients and energy albeit not necessarily in the correct amounts or proportions. Results were often unpublished, or if disseminated, it was frequently by personal communication or in local publications. This would begin to change as early as the mid-1930s with the establishment of a fish production research program in Alabama, and later in several other states. By the late 1950s, research demonstrated that commercial catfish farming was feasible, and by 1969, there were about 16,000 ha in production. Commercial feeds were available, but it was evident that higher-quality feeds were necessary. Thus, new research initiatives were implemented, and from 1970 onward, significant advancements were made in catfish nutrition, primarily by institutions in Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Texas. Historically, the development of catfish nutrition loosely paralleled the development of the industry, and thus, this narrative is divided into eras that roughly correspond to periods of industry growth.

“…Processing plants will not accept off-flavor fish, which can result in delayed harvest. On-farm "warehousing" of fish while awaiting flavor quality to improve increases the length of the production cycle, thus incurring greater operating and interest costs (Li et al 2020;Engle et al 2021b;Kumar et al 2023). Delay in harvest of marketable fish also interrupts cash flows, resulting in disruption of scheduled or recurring payments (Engle et al 2010;Engle and Kumar 2011).…”

ObjectiveThe objective of this study was to quantify the economic costs and impacts of off‐flavor on U.S. catfish farms.MethodsA survey was conducted to quantify the costs and economic methods using enterprise budget techniques to enumerate the costs of off‐flavor on catfish farms.ResultDiuron was the most popular‐choice algicide for off‐flavor management. Direct annual costs associated with off‐flavor management on catfish farms amounted to US$40 million/year. Total industry economic losses due to off‐flavor was estimated at $73.9 million in 2022.ConclusionThe study confirms the continued significance of off‐flavor in U.S. catfish farming and quantifies the associated economic effects.
