AI Technical Summary
Existing feeds for crab farming have problems such as underdeveloped crab roe, dull crab shell color, and resource waste. In particular, the absorption rate of carotenoids is low and they fail to effectively promote gonadal development.
A compound pigment scheme was adopted, which included a specific ratio of capsanthin, zeaxanthin and natural astaxanthin. Soybean lecithin oil was used as a bioavailability promoter for carotenoids, and bile acids were combined to improve the gonadal development and pigment absorption rate of crabs. The feed was prepared using a specific spraying temperature and drying process.
It significantly improves the plumpness of crab roe and the redness of crab shell, increases the weight of crab roe by 10-15%, greatly enhances the redness of crab shell and crab roe, improves nutrient utilization, and strengthens the premium value of river crabs in the market.
