Skretting and Longyang Fresh, China's largest trout producer, have officially signed a cooperation agreement to promote sustainable aquaculture practices for trout farmed on the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau.
This three-year agreement will support the development of China’s plateau cold-water fish industry through investment in new feeds, improved nutritional management, and more sustainable farming practices.
Skretting explains that the plateau in Qinghai Province provides natural advantages for trout farming due to its low temperatures, high levels of dissolved oxygen, and low pathogen pressure.
Taking advantage of this, both companies will jointly create a precision nutrition system optimized for high-altitude farming conditions. They will also use global databases to optimize productivity and implement a traceability system.
"This strategic upgrade builds on years of successful collaboration and a shared long-term vision. Together, we will develop precision nutrition solutions tailored to high-altitude ecosystems, strengthen supply chain cooperation, and Skretting's global strengths will be our effective support," said Miyan Ying, Chairman of Longyang Fresh.
Additionally, Skretting CEO Maarten Bijl stated: "We look forward to integrating our advanced global nutrition technologies and sustainability expertise with the unique conditions of the plateau, co-creating solutions that deliver long-term value for the industry. This partnership reconfirms our market-leading position as a nutritional and functional partner for sustainable farming within the high-value sector, and demonstrates our commitment to increasing Skretting’s presence in China and in the wider Asian region."
