Feed Budget Calculator
Feed is 40–60% of aquaculture OPEX. This tool converts production tonnage, FCR and feed price into annual feed load, feed cost and feed cost per kg of fish or shrimp produced — the ratios that decide farm profitability.
Scenario modelling
Flexes FCR, feed price and escalation — the three levers that dominate feed budgets.
Calculator inputs
Salmon 1.1–1.3, trout 1.0–1.2, tilapia 1.4–1.8, shrimp 1.2–1.8

Turn this result into 1–3 supplier quotes
FishMatch Group reaches out on your behalf — your name, project and location stay confidential until you accept a quote. No sign-up, no listing fees, buyers never pay.
How supplier matching works
- 1. Private brief. Your spec goes only to manufacturers we have selected for the right category, capacity and export experience.
- 2. Confidential outreach. Suppliers see the technical spec — not your name, company or exact location — until you accept a quote.
- 3. 1–3 comparable quotes. Typically within 5–10 business days, aligned on scope so you can compare like-for-like.
- 4. Financing intro (optional). If needed, we introduce your project to a financing partner. No fee to buyers.
Notes
- Blend prices when using multiple feed grades (starter, grower, finisher).
- Lock in framework agreements — feed price swings 15–25% year-on-year in most markets.
