This project has been highly successful at determining factors that affect the outputs and outcomes of the model and the uncertainty underlying the model system. The report has been divided into seven broad sections and two Appendices. The first chapter contains the context of the work;...
1. Assess the effectiveness of three forms of amino acid supplementation to improve the amino acid balance of diets containing terrestrial proteins. (CSIRO).
2. To define the daily requirements for essential amino acids and energy of the black tiger prawn during grow-out at specific temperatures.
3. To define the requirements in silver perch for the essential fatty acids and amino acids. (NSWF)
4. Determine the protein and energy requirements of several size classes barramundi at several temperatures.
5. To determine the cost benefit of using commercially available attractants and palatability enhancers in prawn feeds where high levels of grains and legumes are used. (CSIRO)
6. Communicate the research findings to the feed manufacturing industry and the scientific community. (CSIRO, QDPI)
