| Innovation Title | Database of the nutrient composition of ingredients locally available for low-cost feed formulation in Africa and Asia |
| Innovation description | This database presents the nutrient composition of selected locally available ingredients, which can be used by feed manufacturers to formulate low-cost, sustainable aquafeeds in Africa and Asia. The database will be expanded to include information on the digestibility of macro and micro-nutrients for accurate feed formulation. |

Stage reached
| Stage of Innovation | Stage 1: discovery/proof of concept |
| Year (Stage) | 2019 |
| Stage Description | Currently survey have been conducted in Myanmar, Bangladesh, Malaysia, Egypt, Nigeria and Zambia. Further research on the nutrient composition and digestibility of the selected sustainable ingredients is still ongoing will lead to an open access database for low-cost feed formulation that could be merge with existing databases. |
