Agaricus bisporous: A formulated Aqua feed for Aquatic Organisms

Worldwide aquaculture making (including aquatic plants) stands at 150.2 million tonnes, with the first sale value predictable at USD 253.5 billion. The total production included 80.0 million tonnes of food fish and 30.1 million tonnes of aquatic plants. Currently aquaculture contributes to 46.8 percent of total global fish production. Dietary fibres and high fibre-containing foods have been a huge magnetism among researchers and nutraceutical industries due to their health-promoting benefits. This increase in growth of aquaculture has been primarily attributed to development in good quality feeds. Any good quality feed is prepared from proper and essential feed flavours. Presently research and developments in functional feed additives are showing promising yields to aqua farmers. Functional feed additives not only improve the growth performance of the fishes but also improve the health performance of the fishes. These functional feed additives are derived from different sources. These are organic and eco-friendly to fishes and environment. These functional feed additives include prebiotics, probiotics, seaweeds, mushrooms, microalgae, enzymes, organic acids, mycotoxin binders, photogenic. Nowadays, mushrooms and their by-products have been used to brace various food products as well as for use in animal feed owing to their bioactive, therapeutic and nutritional value. Hence, this review intends to highlight the current knowledge on edible mushrooms and their waste for food and feed enrichment and nutritional purposes, along with their role in human and animal diet
