Recently, Norwegian researchers said that natural gas can be used to produce a large number of feed proteins for marine aquaculture, which will open up a new way to increase human food supply According to Norwegian news agency, at an international conference held in Norway recently, Letan, a Norwegian expert in fisheries and marine aquaculture, said that in the future, the demand for food will increase significantly However, at present, the food resources available to human beings are quite limited, especially the world's fish catch is unlikely to increase significantly Therefore, people need to vigorously develop marine aquaculture, and the development of marine aquaculture needs a large number of biological protein feed The use of natural gas to produce biological protein can meet this demand Leitan said this will greatly increase the economic value of natural gas He said that if Norway can vigorously develop the use of natural gas to produce biological protein in the next 20 years, its offshore fish production will double For example, the annual export earnings of Norwegian salmon can increase from the current 9 billion Norwegian kroner (about 9.1 kroner (US $1)) to 60 billion kroner At present, Norway has made considerable progress in the research and development of natural gas to produce biological protein, and plans to build a plant on the west coast to produce biological protein from natural gas, Letan said China feed industry information network qr3 (author:)
