A 128+-year old company with more than 4 billion in sales, Scoular provides diverse supply chain solutions for end-users and suppliers of grain, feed ingredients, and food ingredients. Scoular is providing Barley Protein Concentrate (i.e. BPC) as an ingredient in Star Milling’s F3 feed. BPC is the result of a unique enzymatic hydrolysis to obtain a high-quality, highly digestible nutrient dense protein source. The patented process for obtaining BPCs is designed to protect the protein from heat damage as well as remove fiber and allow the naturally occurring phosphorus to be highly bio-available for nutrient uptake. The ideal levels of protein and low ash make this a complimentary supplement to fish meal in aquaculture and pet food diets.

Barley Protein Concentrate (i.e. BPC) is the result of a unique enzymatic hydrolysis to obtain a high-quality, highly digestible nutrient dense protein source. The patented process for obtaining Barley Protein Concentrates is designed to protect the protein from heat damage as well as remove fiber and allow the naturally occurring phosphorus to be highly bio-available for nutrient uptake. The ideal levels of protein and low ash make this a complimentary supplement to fish meal in aquaculture and pet food diets.
➢ BPC based feeds are palatable, with equivalent or better growth than fishmeal based diets.
➢ Barley protein is highly digestible. USDA studies in trout and salmon show the protein availability is up to 96%, higher than other plant
proteins and equivalent to or greater than fishmeal.
➢ BPC does not contain anti-nutritional compounds, unlike soy and some other plant proteins
➢ The phosphorus in BPC is highly digestible, reducing the principal pollutant from farmed fish operations
➢ BPC improves waste management, especially in Recirculating Aquaculture Systems
➢ BPC does not change fish meat color or taste
➢ BPC is stable in storage and transport
➢ BPC performs well in manufacture of finished pelleted feeds
➢ BPC supports aquaculture sustainability ratings and best aquaculture practices: Barley is not genetically modified, does not compete
with human food (Scoular uses feed barley now fed primarily to livestock), and is a sustainable, low input crop grown in dry land, cold
climates and requires less fertilizer, few pesticides, and less water than other grains.

Empagran is an integrated aquaculture company with 3000 ha of shrimp ponds in Ecuador, a packing plant, hatchery and feed mill. Empagran mainly grows white shrimp Litopenaues vannamei. The main share holder also owns a large percentage of shares of Oceanos shrimp farm (1100 ha) in Cartagena Colombia.

Empagran has developed a formula “veggie” a vegetarian recipe to feed to shrimp. This feed has being formulated without any fish meal or fish oil. The fish meal has being completed replaced by soybean meal and the fish oil has been replaced by Veramaris algal oil rich in both EPA & DHA omega 3 fatty acids. Our intention is to grow sustainable shrimp and in the very near future to be independent of both fish meal and fish oil as source of protein and EPA and DHA omega 3.

Please provide a short description of your company.
Jiangsu Fuhai Biotech Co.,Ltd. were founded in Haian, Jiangsu, China in 2015, close to Nantong and Shanghai Port. The company were awarded as a “Leading Agricultural Enterprise in Haian” in 2019.
Innovation is our soul. We have a team specialized in fermentation, food industry, machinery, and animal nutrition. We applied six related invention patents to 2019. Also we have a long-term cooperation with some domestic and international research institutions or universities. Our laboratory has some equipment for research and analysis, such as Automatic Nitrogen Determination Apparatus, Electric Drum Wind Drying Oven, Vertical Pressure Steam Tank, Biochemical Incubator, Double Vertical Electrophoresis Apparatus, Microscope, etc.
We have assembled a production line with three liquid fermentation tanks. Potentially we can supply about 500,000 tones enzymatic hydrolysis and fermentation plant protein annually in the future. Our production and quality control system are according to ISO9001:2015 and other standards for feed quality and safety management.
We are committed to provide high quality protein and lipid for aquaculture and young live stocks, to add value to the industry.
Please provide any details you would like to share about the product that you are developing for the Challenge.
We use dehulled full fat soybean as raw material. All the material will be fermented in tanks by microbes and enzymes. The temperature and PH are under control so the quality is stable.
Glycinin, Beta-Conglycinin, Stachyose, Raffinose, Phytic acid are almost degraded entirely, which are harmful to gut health and microbial balance. We get rid of nearly all of the anti-nutrition factors as possible.
Most of the protein are degraded to peptide which is very easy to digest, and maybe helpful to improve immunity. The lipids are emulsified which is very good for digesting.
Protein and lipid are two key nutrition elements for aquaculture. So our product can be an ideal ingredient for aquaculture, and young live stocks. Soybean is a big crop so our production is sustainable and can expand easily to meet the needs of the industry.
