Demeter is growing brine shrimp for important macronutrients and feed components!
Demeter Biosciences farms all stages of brine shrimp life using completely sustainable techniques.
Brine shrimp biomass has a high protein and fat content by weight (60% and 6%, respectively). Brine shrimp also naturally synthesize a range of carotenoids.
The amino acid and fatty acid profiles closely mimic those found in traditional fish meal harvested from the ocean: Our brine shrimp contain omega-3 fatty acids like DHA and EPA.

Adult and juvenile brine shrimp biomass can be converted into a fish meal for fish and animal feeds. The product currently in development would be a mercury-free, sustainable, land-based, and cost-effective fish meal.
