The U.S. Soybean Export Council\'s Aquaculture Program has recently developed materials to communicate the benefits of \"Soy-fed Fish\" to the seafood industry, retailers, and consumers. The materials promote soy-fed fish as a healthful, sustainable, and environmentally sound solution to the growing global demand for nutritious seafood.

These materials include a fact sheet and a handy information card, both of which are included on a USB jump drive along with various photos of global aquaculture operations. Information for feed companies on specific feed ingredients, such as Soy Protein Concentrate, are also available.

This fall, USSEC\'s Aquaculture Program will launch a newly revamped website focused on the Soy-Fed Fish initiative. The website will serve as a resource for consumers, chefs, and retailers on how soy-fed fish is good for the health of your body, your business, and our oceans. It will also be a resource for the aquaculture industry with information on soy products available for aquafeeds, feeding demonstration reports, and technical studies.

To request materials, or for more information, please contact soyaqua@ussec.org.
