ADM Opens Tianjin Aqua Feed Facility, Its Second Hatchery Feed Plant Worldwide

ADM has inaugurated a new early nutrition aqua feed facility in Tianjin, China, marking the company's second hatchery feed plant globally. The plant carries an annual design capacity of approximately 5,000 tonnes and produces particle sizes ranging from 50 microns to 3 mm, targeting fish and shrimp at early life stages.

ADM has officially inaugurated its Early Nutrition Aqua Feed Facility in Tianjin, China, the company's second hatchery feed plant in the world, according to a report published by eFeedLink on 18 September 2026.

The Tianjin plant has an annual design capacity of approximately 5,000 tonnes. It produces particle sizes ranging from 50 microns to 3 mm, a range intended to meet the nutritional requirements of fish and shrimp during their early developmental stages.

The inauguration marks a continued push by ADM into early-life aquaculture nutrition, a segment that demands highly precise feed manufacturing to ensure particle uniformity and nutrient density for larvae and juvenile aquatic species. The opening of a second dedicated hatchery feed plant signals ADM's intent to expand its global footprint in this specialised area of aquafeed production.

No further details regarding the plant's location partners, investment value, or staffing levels were provided in the available source material.

Chilean Salmon Farmer Invermar to Trial Feed Additive Targeting 50% Cut in SRS Mortality

Researchers at Chile's Pontifical Catholic University of Valparaíso have developed a synthetic peptide-based feed additive, Aqua P-Enhance, designed to boost Atlantic salmon's innate immune response against salmonid rickettsial septicaemia. Salmon farming company Invermar has agreed to integrate the additive into its feed production lines for real-world farm trials, with performance targets including a 50% reduction in SRS-related mortality and antimicrobial use, and a 10% increase in final body weight.
