(Fish mix left after other buyers have selected their requirements) Field trip information March 2013

Fishmeal species wanted Feed manufacturers are looking for fishmeal with 62 to 65% protein: - Scad ~ 65% - Anchovy/ herring ~ 64 to 65% - Cowhead ray ~ 50 to 60%

Drivers for change • Demands for sustainable feeds by aquaculture certifications • Sustainable sourcing policies by retailers • Reputation risk for supply chain - media and NGO attention • Intergovernmental agencies (e.g. FAO) actively working to improve quality of fisheries

Requirements for sourcing of fishmeal and fish oil (from whole fish and fishery by-products) ASC

BAP • 100% MSC (or ISEAL) certified by 2017

• 50% MSC or IFFO RS certified by 2015 for both fisheries and industrial by-products • Use material from Fisheries Improvements Projects when available

• IFFO RS fishmeal up to 2017 (Pangasius only) • Traceability to species and country of origin

• individual
