Developing the Process to Raise Rainbow Trout More Tolerant to Soybean Meal Feed

This project will develop a process to raise Rainbow Trout more tolerant to soybean meal feeds by improved feed utilization efficiency with the long-term goal of reducing the cost of producing commercial trout.  Major commercial trout producers are using University of Idaho’s selected trout lines, which provides a pipeline for transferring findings directly to stakeholders. Impact in Missouri could be introducing these lines of trout with producers such as MO Department of Conservation hatcheries.
