Monitoring programme for fish feed Annual report for samples collected in 2024
This annual monitoring programme on fish feed and feed ingredients is performed on behalf of the Norwegian Food Safety Authority. In 2024, IMR received 99 samples of fish feed, 9 fish meals, 9 fish oils, 19 plant meals and 10 plant oils. Additional samples included 5 algae oils, 4 insect meals, 1 insect oil, 1 prebiotic yeast, and 1 krill meal. Analyses covered undesirable substances, processed animal proteins, microbial quality, and contaminants such as per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). Results showed general compliance with regulations and highlighted levels of specific substances like mycotoxins and metals. Data generated are essential for risk assessments and for establishing limits for unregulated contaminants in feed materials.
