FeedKind is a sustainable protein made from fermented natural gas which contains a unique carbon signature that can help the food industry provide traceability and integrity to its supply chain.<\/p>\n
Alan Shaw, PhD, president and chief executive of Calysta, said, \u201cThai Union is one of the world\u2019s largest seafood producers and, like us, they are committed to improving sustainability and traceability in the shrimp farming industry \u2013 making this partnership a significant moment for the seafood sector.<\/p>\n
\u201cCalysta\u2019s aim is to help create a future where the world\u2019s growing population has guaranteed food security. By introducing a sustainable alternative protein that allows us to determine whether a shrimp was fed FeedKind protein with a simple test, FeedKind offers the industry a new level of transparency.\u201d<\/p>\n
Fishing activities associated with the production of fishmeal for feed have been associated with unsustainable practices such as illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing and poor management and working conditions. By eliminating this element, a leap forward in sustainable shrimp production has been made.<\/p>\n
Darian McBain, PhD, global director of corporate affairs and sustainability at Thai Union, said, \u201cAquaculture is key to providing a sustainable form of protein for the growing global population. Ensuring that the feed inputs to aquaculture are sustainable, as well as the production methods, is vital.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
