The process of fish feed production
How to produce fish feed? What is the complete process of fish feed production? What are the steps involved in producing fish feed? These are the questions that fish feed producers usually have when investing or starting the fish feed production business.
Therefore, we will customize fish feed production line solutions for you according to your specific needs. Due to the differences in the types of raw materials, the area and height of the fish feed plant, investment requirements, etc., each fish feed production line solution will be very different.
The conventional fish feed production process includes: receiving and cleaning raw materials – first crushing and first mixing – second crushing and second mixing – extrusion or granulation – drying – spraying – cooling – screening and packing
The fish feed production process is as follows:

Receipt Of Raw Materials
The receipt of raw materials is the initial stage of fish feed production. According to production needs and the amount of raw materials used in the feed formula, the storage of raw materials can be completed using a silo receiving system.
First crushing and first mixing
The raw materials are crushed into small particles to reduce the particle size of the raw materials, which is convenient for subsequent extrusion, granulation, etc. The crushed raw materials are roughly mixed according to the feed formula.
Second crushing and second mixing
In order to meet the growth needs of fish, fish feed production usually involves a second crushing to improve the quality of fish feed pellets. The materials are then fully mixed according to the feed formula.
Extrusion or granulation
The mixed materials are extruded or pelletized to form high-end fish feed pellets. In this process, you can choose to use fish feed extruder machine or fish feed pelletizer.
drying
Drying is to reduce the moisture content in the feed pellets. The moisture content of the feed pellets after drying is about 13%, which can increase the storage time of the feed pellets.
Spraying
Oil, vitamins, spices and other materials are sprayed onto the surface and inside of feed particles through spraying equipment to improve the nutritional content and palatability of feed particles.
cooling
The temperature of the feed pellets after the above treatment is relatively high. In order to quickly cool them to room temperature or slightly below room temperature, cooling equipment is required to cool them down.
Screening
Screening is to improve the quality of fish feed pellets. Use screening equipment to screen out qualified feed pellets from the feed pellets, and unqualified ones need to be returned for reprocessing.
Packing
The qualified fish feed pellets screened out are packed into bagged feed pellets through weighing, bagging, sealing, palletizing and other processes. Bulk feed pellets can also be directly transported by truck.

Fish feed processing technology
Extruded fish feed or pelletized fish feed? These are two common types of fish feed, which are made from two different production processes: floating fish feed and pelletized fish feed pellet.
The main difference between the processing technology of floating fish feed and sinking fish feed pellet lies in the different equipment used in the pelletizing or extrusion process.
The main equipment used in the floating fish feed processing technology is the fish feed extruder machine, which can be the twin-screw extruder machine or a single-screw extruder machine.
The main equipment used in the processing of sinking fish feed pellet is the fish feed pelletizer with a multi-layer modulator, but fish feed extruder machine can also be used to process sinking fish feed pellets, which is also popular in the fish feed production industry.
In addition, fish feed extruder machines can also be used to process slow sinking fish feed pellets to meet the specific feeding needs of some aquaculture farms.

Floating fish feed
The high-fat, high-water content fish feed pellets produced by the extrusion process can float on the water surface for a long time, which can meet the growth and development needs of surface-feeding fish such as trout, catfish, and eels.

Slow sinking fish feed
The fish feed produced by the extrusion process can sink slowly in the water. After feeding, it will not sink to the bottom of the water quickly, so that the fish can have more time to eat, reducing feed waste and water pollution.

Sinking fish feed pellet
A kind of fish feed pellets produced by extrusion or granulation process that can quickly sink to the bottom of the water after feeding, mainly used to meet the growth and development needs of bottom-feeding fish.

Why invest in fish feed production?
Fish feed production has attracted more and more attention as a business plan. Many investors are interested in the development potential and profit space of fish feed production, especially in the context of the rapid development of global aquaculture.
Aquaculture industry growing rapidly
As wild catch resources decrease, aquaculture becomes the main way to supply fish. The global aquaculture industry grows by 5%-7% annually, and the rapid growth of aquaculture drives the demand for aquatic feed.
High-end aquatic feed demand is strong
Traditional fish feeds have serious homogeneity, low conversion rate, water pollution and other problems. Aquaculture farmers are looking for better aquatic feeds, and aquatic feeds with high protein and high fat content have become the first choice.
Improved efficiency of the breeding industry
High-end aquatic feed can increase the growth rate of fish and reduce feed waste, thereby reducing breeding costs, improving fish survival rate, increasing breeding income and improving breeding efficiency.
Complete industrial chain
At present, fish feed production has formed a complete industrial chain. Both the raw material supply and market awareness are relatively stable, so high-end aquatic feed can stand out in the market.
High return on investment
The market demand for aquatic feed is stable, and the profit margin is much higher than that of ordinary agricultural products. The gross profit margin of high-end aquatic feed can reach 30%-50%, which is a very considerable profit margin.
Strong scalability
Initial investment can produce single feed, such as trout feed, tilapia feed, and then gradually expand to special fish feed, ornamental fish feed, shrimp feed to increase market share.

Frequently asked questions

How to Start the Fish Feed Production Business?
Starting the fish feed production business requires preparation and planning from many aspects, such as:
- Preliminary research and planning of fish feed market
- Site selection of fish feed factory and construction or rental of fish feed plant
- Raw material procurement and supplier management
- Production management and quality control of fish feed during production

Each of these sections contains a lot of content. Although the fish feed production business may seem troublesome, if you find the right partner, everything will become organized and simple, allowing you to quickly start a fish feed production business in a limited time.
what equipment is suitable for making fish feed
There are many kinds of equipment for making fish feed. Different types of fish feed production require different equipment, and different outputs of fish feed production also require different equipment. Generally speaking, the production of fish feed mainly requires: raw material crushing equipment, mixing equipment, extrusion equipment, granulation equipment, drying equipment, spraying equipment, cooling equipment, packaging equipment, etc.
Through reasonable configuration, these equipments can efficiently produce high-quality fish feed to meet market demand.
How can we produce high-quality extruded feed?
In order to obtain high-quality extruded floating feed, every link in feed production is important, and there are several key points to pay attention to:
- First of all, the raw materials should be ground finely. The finer the raw materials are ground, the easier it is to mix fully with steam in the modulator, the easier it is to extrude the raw materials in the extrusion chamber, and the easier it is to obtain puffed feed with a smooth surface and uniform color.
- Secondly, a reasonable formula is the key factor in producing high-quality extruded feed, especially the starch content in the raw materials, because the starch content is the key factor that determines the buoyancy and sinking properties of extruded feed.
- In addition, whether to choose spraying equipment and the choice of sprayer. Spraying can significantly increase the oil content of extruded feed particles. Different spraying equipment brings different effects. For example, the spraying effects brought by drum sprayer and vacuum sprayer are completely different.
The quality of extruded feed is closely related to each production link and the selected equipment. If you want to get high-quality extruded feed, you can contact us immediately for more detailed information.
