Godrej Agrovet recently hosted a Mega Farmer’s Meet aimed at promoting healthy and balanced nutrition for aquafarmers in South Dinajpur. During the event, the company emphasized that proper nutrition is essential for the prosperity of aqua farmers as the aquaculture sector transitions from traditional practices to research-driven, commercial farming.
Dhrubajyoti Banerjee, CEO of Godrej Agrovet’s Aqua Feed Business, highlighted the increasing demand for freshwater fish in India, urging farmers to embrace scientific methods for better yields. “With 60% of production costs tied to feed, our high-quality products enhance fish and shrimp immunity, improve weight gain, and ensure better feed conversion ratios,” he noted. The company’s Aqua Health Care services complement their feed products, helping farmers with pond management and disease prevention.
In Dinajpur, local aquafarmers expressed optimism about adopting these advanced practices to boost their productivity and profitability. Godrej Agrovet’s commitment to providing chemical-free feed products and comprehensive aquaculture solutions aims to empower farming families and ensure sustainable growth in the region’s aquaculture sector.
