Boosting Efficiency in Asia Pacific’s Aquafeed Industry: The Role of Automation and Skilled Workforce

Updated: Oct 25

The market size for aquafeed continues to grow in the Asia Pacific region That is good news for the aquafeed industry, however, there remain significant challenges in terms of raw material costs and supply, overhead costs such as labour and energy, and overall operating efficiency.


To remain competitive in this industry it is essential that each plant is operating to maximum efficiency in terms of kWh/tonne, manhours/tonne, and the rated capacity of each production line. It is not possible to achieve this without investment in automation systems and software that provide real-time data capture and analytic displays.


That is why the training of staff working within the aqua feed industry has never been so critical. We have seen many times, companies that invest in state-of-the-art technology and equipment but fail to utilise them because staff are not trained to understand and interpret the data that is produced.


The Progressus Aqua Feed Milling Agrischool is a comprehensive course covering many aspects of Asian Aqua feed production. The course provides a complete overview of the feed mill process for both shrimp and fish feeds and the impact of different feed ingredients and formulations combined with a detailed look at the critical sections in the production line including; Grinding, Batching, Conditioning, Pelleting, Extrusion and Drying.


Once again we focus strongly on production management and the tools required for efficient plant production and maintenance. This includes the latest technologies and innovations for both plant and human resource optimisation together with data capture, display, and integration with MES and ERP systems.


The programme also includes a visit to one of the larger Aqua feed mills in Thailand. The courses are independent and commercially neutral. They are facilitated by some of the most experienced professionals in the industry committed to sharing their extensive knowledge with a new generation of feed technologists. The presentation format is very interactive to encourage a high level of participant involvement and information exchange as well as daily group workshops.

This exclusive 4-day event will bring together top industry professionals to tackle challenges, boost efficiency, and improve the quality of aqua feed operations.
