The enrichment of omega-3 in red tilapia (Oreochromissp.) by production of fermented Azolla microphylla food-based pellet using solid state fermentation / Aimi Nadia Ramli

High demand from aquaculture sector and human consumption resulting to the increasing price and declining of protein source such as fishmeal. Fishmeal, the main protein source in the feed, however, will not have capability to maintain and fulfil the demand for aquatic food to establish food security...
