The incorporation of plant protein sources in shrimp feed is limited due to unbalanced amino acids and higher anti-nutrients. In the present study, soybean meal (SBM), groundnut oil cake (GNC), rapeseed meal (RSM), sunflower oil cake (SFC) and guar meal (GRM) were subjected to natural, bacterial, fungal and yeast fermentation methods. The essential amino acid contents were increased by 4-28% in SBM, 7-26% in GNC, 3-27% in RSM, 8-18% in SFC and 4-14% in GRM. The increase was better for lysine with fungal fermentation (2.31-4.01%). The improvement in other limiting amino acids viz., methionine and tryptophan also showed positive response to fermentation. The analytical results showed improved essential amino acid index (EAAI) in the fermented ingredients and the increase was better with RSM (0.82 to 0.92) using Aspergillus niger. Fiber fractions were reduced (p<0.05) in fungal and yeast treated samples but not due to natural or bacterial fermentation. The reduction of cellulose and hemicellulose was not only influenced by the inoculum but also on the ingredient used. The reduction of anti-nutrients (p<0.05) such as trypsin inhibitor, phytic acid, saponin, tannin, glucosinolate and guar gum were found to be lower in natural fermentation than other methods. The results indicated that fungal fermentation is more suitable for improving the nutritional quality of plant protein sources and this data will pave way for higher fishmeal replacement in shrimp feed formulations.

Abstract The present study aimed to assess the appropriate level of replacement of fish meal (FM) with alternative plant sources in the feed fed to Oreochromis niloticus to evaluate the growth performance. Three isoproteinious (40% crude protein) diets were prepared from different ingredients viz., fish meal, corn gluten meal, wheat gluten meal, and bagasse kenna meal. O. niloticus showed a maximum increase in weight as 9.70, 11.09, 8.53 and 8.32 g during the 2nd, 2nd, 3rd and 2nd fortnight with feeding treatment A, B, C and D, respectively. The growth performance of the fish in terms of weight gain, specific growth rate, feed conversion ratio and protein efficiency ratio were found to be significantly (P < 0.05) higher in the fish fed with 20% replacement of fishmeal in diet B. The worst growth performance was observed in fish fed with commercial diet, designated as diet D. It was concluded that the fish meal can be replaced up to 20 percent with other plant protein sources without any negative impact on fish health. The replacement of fish meal with local plant sources (corn gluten meal, wheat gluten meal, soybean meal and bagasse kenna mix) will not only be beneficial to achieve better growth performance in O. niloticus, it will be a value addition as well.
