Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Over several decades, aquaculture has emerged as a key industry, bridging the gap between fish demand and supply. However, due to the global population increase and concerns regarding feed sustainability, species health management, and climate change, the sustainability of aquaculture is being threatened. Nutritional interventions and dietary optimization have proven to be effective in addressing these concerns, enhancing production efficiency, and improving animal welfare.

This Special Issue invites submissions that explore how innovative nutritional strategies can address key challenges in aquaculture. We are particularly interested in research on new feed formulations, alternative ingredients, and targeted nutritional management practices. Studies examining the responses of aquaculture species to various dietary interventions are also highly encouraged.

We welcome both original research and comprehensive reviews that provide insights into these areas. Your contributions will advance the understanding of how effective nutritional management can foster a more resilient and sustainable aquaculture industry in a rapidly changing world.

Prof. Dr. Seunghyung Lee
Guest Editor
