Description
Summary:[...]the implementation of microbiome‐based products is in its infancy and many practices are still of a ‘hope for the best’ fertilization‐based nature (Moriarty, ), where specific functional groups of the aquaculture microbiome are enriched for by adding, for example carbon‐rich substrates. [...]microbiome‐based products aim to improve water quality and in some cases remove potential pathogens through, for example, competitive exclusion (Table ). Consistency, efficiency and most importantly safety are key points in all large‐scale productions, and they should be considered from the early stages of the discovery phase to the final application in feed products. [...]not only does the development of a commercial product rely on substantial financial investments, but also on the contribution from a multidisciplinary team encompassing close collaborations between scientists, aquaculture experts, fermentation engineers and regulatory personnel. [...]the aquaculture industry is one of the fastest growing food producing sectors in the world and the increased productivity of this sector is essential for the fulfilment of the sustainable development goals of the UN.
