U.S. Grains Council (USGC) staff and consultants conducted a program in Egypt this week to promote distiller\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s dried grain with solubles (DDGS) in aqua rations. This program was done in conjunction with Mirasco, a USGC member company that has a large client base within the Egyptian aquaculture industry.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00e2\u20ac\u0153Egypt has the most active and the largest aquaculture industry in the region,\u00e2\u20ac\ufffd said Hesham Hassanein, USGC regional director for the Middle East and Africa. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153But this growing sector only has limited knowledge of the technical and economic advantages of using corn co-products in fish feeds.\u00e2\u20ac\ufffd<\/span><\/p>\n

To assess this industry\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s potential to utilize U.S. DDGS in their feed formulations, this week\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s mission included site visits to large and growing fish farms.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00e2\u20ac\u0153During the site visits, we saw that average aqua production in Egypt was 2 to 4 tons per acre,\u00e2\u20ac\ufffd Hassanein said. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153However there is the potential for these farms to increase output to 8 to 12 tons per acre with improved management. This means there is a great growth potential that could increase demand for coarse grains and co-products.\u00e2\u20ac\ufffd<\/span><\/p>\n

The mission wrapped up with a seminar that was attended by 75 executives from the aquaculture sector.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00e2\u20ac\u0153During the seminar, we gave an overview of the advantages of using U.S. DDGS in aqua rations and discussed the success the Council has seen in Vietnam with our catfish feeding trials,\u00e2\u20ac\ufffd Hassanein said. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153While Egyptian aquaculture is mainly focused on the tilapia species, the information from the catfish trial was useful to those attending our program also.\u00e2\u20ac\ufffd<\/span><\/p>\n

In addition, the group explored the possibility of launching a similar type of feeding trial in Egypt.<\/span><\/p>\n

“We were also successful in reaching a preliminary agreement with an international aquaculture research institute in Egypt,\u00e2\u20ac\ufffd Hassanein said. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153They have agreed to conduct feed trials using higher inclusion rates of DDGS with support from Mirasco, which will provide the needed DDGS, free of charge, to carry out the trials.”<\/span><\/p>\n

The Council will continue its ongoing promotion of U.S DDGS to the Egyptian aqua sector through one-on-one meetings, presentations and seminars.<\/span><\/p>\n
