Currently, we are constantly improving the recipes of
fish feeds, this reduces the cost of feed per gain, and it
overall decreases cost of fish. We search for
alternative cheaper sources of nutrients. Leftovers of
vegetable oil and oil extraction industry such as oil
cakes and meals have been used as high-protein feed
additives for a long time. This requires a strict
scientific control, precluding the possibility of their
harmful effects on animal health. In this regard, there
was a comparative analysis of the chemical and
amino acid composition traditionally used in
compound feeds for sturgeons of sunflower cake and
feed concentrate from "Sarepta" vegetable raw
materials. During the research it was found that
"Sarepta" is better than sunflower meal considering
protein and essential amino acids content
Modern commodity sturgeon breeding is one of the
profitable and dynamically developing directions of
fish farming in the Russian Federation. Only the
system of Rosrybhoz has more than 40 enterprises of
different ownership forms for the cultivation of
sturgeons. In 2012, in agricultural farming of the
Russian Federation we had grown more than 2.0
thousand tons of sturgeon. Crucial role to maintain
normal functioning of the body of the fish when
grown in closed recirculation systems plays complete
and balanced nutrition. Proper organization of
biologically full feeding of fish helps to maximize
expression of their genetic potential. The article
presents the results of the researches of the efficiency
of using feed concentrate from vegetable raw
materials called "Sarepta" in the composition of feed
additives for 2-year old Russian sturgeons
This article presents the results of the use of feed
concentrate from vegetable raw materials called
"Sarepta" in the amount of 5, 7.5% and 10% by
weight of the feed, instead of sunflower meal in the
feeding of Russian sturgeons. Studies have been
conducted among 3 year old Russian sturgeons in the
conditions of PRIBOY company in the Bykovsky
district of the Volgograd region. The experiment
lasted 24 weeks. Replacing sunflower meal with a
product of processing of oilseeds - feed concentrate
Sarepta, made from vegetable raw materials, in the
composition of feed for sturgeons had a positive
effect on live weight, absolute, average daily and
relative gains and costs of feed. The use of "Sarepta"
feed concentrate, made from vegetable raw materials
in the feeding of Russian sturgeon contributes to the
increase of live weight of 3.1-6.0 per cent, an absolute
increase of live weight by 5.07-9.82 percent, and
average daily and relative body weight increase. It
was also found, that we had a decrease in feed
consumption during the period of experience in the
experimental groups. Morphological and biochemical
parameters in experimental fish in all groups were
within the physiological norm, which indicates a
normally occurring redox processes in the body
