Fish feed pellet production can support Assam’s expanding aquaculture and fish farming sector, particularly in areas such as Morigaon and Nagaon, where fish farms require regular feed supplies. Feed is manufactured through weighing, grinding, mixing, conditioning, and pelletising of selected raw materials to produce species-specific and nutritionally balanced feeds for carp, catla, and other regional fish. Localised feed manufacturing can help farmers access reliable supplies, reduce transportation and input costs, and support better fish growth and farm productivity. Assam-based MSMEs can explore opportunities in feed formulation, manufacturing, quality testing, packaging, storage, branding, and distribution, while maintaining standards for nutrient composition, pellet durability, hygiene, and shelf life. Businesses can also explore wider domestic and export markets by meeting applicable feed quality, labelling, certification, documentation, and regulatory requirements.
