Use of Herbal Food Additives in Fisheries
Abstract
The use of vegetable products to prolong the shelf life of fish in addition to as a functional feed additive in aquaculture is expected to increase significantly in the near future. In parallel with the increasing world population, the inability to increase fisheries has made it inevitable to meet the aquaculture needs from aquaculture and this has led to the continuous increase of aquaculture and to reach a great market potential. Synthetic feed additives and antibiotics used unconsciously have become a major problem with the increase in aquaculture and in many countries restrictions on antibiotic use have been imposed. As a result of these restrictions, interest in functional feed additives has increased. It has been shown in many studies that it may be appropriate to use herbal products as an alternative to antibiotics and synthetic substances used as growth enhancers in aquaculture. Natural products, such as medicinal plants, can be widely used as feed additives to improve the efficiency of feed use and increase animal production performance. This study aims to promote the use of medicinal plants as an alternative to chemical products in the aquaculture sector.
