Actively creating sustainable aqua solutions
De Heus suports and encourages farmers to find opportunities to grow their fish and shrimp in a sustainable and profitable way. To continuously grow knowledge, increase the use of sustainable raw materials and keep up to date on the most modern farming methods, we invest in research and development in dedicated R&D centers, research farms and in partnerships with key universities. This way we always produce the best fish feed and shrimp feed for each farm.
Aquaculture Research and Development Center in Vietnam
Our dedicated global R&D Centre for aquaculture in Vietnam provides testing for a wide range of aquaculture species. The indoor facilities support extensive feed development trials under controlled conditions. The results are then tested and proven in our specially designed outdoor facilities that closely mirror those of an aquaculture farm.
The R&D Centre also functions as a technology lab where both customers and our De Heus technical specialists take part in training programmes and technological demonstrations to help develop sustainable farming and management practices.
