Description Nutrition plays a vital role in improving animal
productivity. Good deal of work has been done in India on
nutritional requirements of livestock and poultry. But
studies on fish nutrition especially on the marine species
are comparatively of recent origin. The Central Marine
Fisheries Research Institute has been undertaking experimental
work to estimate the digestibility coefficients of
different feed stuffs and the nutritional requirements of
selected fin and shell fishes. Experiments are also conducted
to test the efficiency of different feed mixtures and to
study their economics. In this paper a versatile tool called
'linear programming technique' has been discussed in relation
to fish feed formulation.
