Nutrient Densities of Final Mix:
Protein: 24–26%; assuming whole raw catfish nutrients.
Fat: 4–5%; assuming lean raw catfish levels in cuttings.
Carbohydrates: 60–65%.
When using raw carp cuttings for raw flesh component, fat and energy levels will be higher. These components need to be assayed before incorporation into final mix. Protein content may be increased by substituting soybean meal for maize.
