  • Why is fish oil not used in Rwanda?
  • Based on our survey results, fish oil is rarely used in Rwanda, most likely due to low availability and high market price but also because freshwater fish, including tilapia, have a low lipid requirement and can be satisfied with C18 PUFA at around 1% of diet dry weight (NRC (National Research Council) 2011; Tocher 2010 ).
  • Can fish feed improve aquaculture at a low-cost in Rwanda?
  • Feed analysis revealed high protein content (>350 g kg 1 CP) in local fishmeal, chicken viscera, and spent brewer¡¯s yeast. Local ingredients and potential novel-feeds need further investigation prior to their confident use in fish diets to improve aquaculture at a low-cost in Rwanda.
  • Is tilapia a problem in Rwanda?
  • In summary, aquaculture in Rwanda is dominated by Nile tilapia, farmed mainly in semi-intensive systems. Fish farming practices generally indicate lack of training and management skills, reflected in relatively low production levels and inadequate use of resources. These are thus potential areas for improvement.
  • Why is refining fish oil important?
  • Moreover, refining is performed to significantly lower certain undesirable Compounds that impair the oil's stability, quality, and acceptability, without losing the PUFAs. The high susceptibility of fish oils rich in omega-3 fatty acids to oxidation produces undesirable taste and odour which limits the use of fish oils.
