Use of fish byproducts could lead to higher profits: experts
Friday, November 16,2018AsemconnectVietnam - The fisheries sector in Viet Nam should use more seafood by-products such as bones, heads and skin to add value to the industry, experts said during an event held between Vietnamese and Norwegian fishery firms on Wednesday in HCM City.
Grete Lochen, Norwegian Ambassador in Viet Nam, said that fisheries and aquaculture were contributing greatly to the global food supply, but there was a great need to enhance food security, both through sustainable fishing and aquaculture, and by a higher use of ’rest raw matierals’.
Phan Thanh Loc, director of VietnamFood, said that such matierals account for a large portion of the input in fishery, especially shrimp, and contain a great deal of nutrition.
Vietnamese factories should not view these materials as waste, but as products and materials for processing, and preserve them more carefully to maintain their high quality.
The business summit was held by the Directorate of Fisheries and Norwegian Embassy in HCM City.
