F3 Fish Farm Challenge Webinars

The F3 Fish Farm challenge was created to assist you to jumpstart your process to future-proof your supply chain, and to enhance the environmental sustainability of your operation.

Join our live webinar to learn more about the F3 Fish Farm Challenge.  In this free session, we will review the Challenge rules and explain how fish farms can compete, including:

  • How to qualify your species grown as “Carnivorous fish”
  • How we define “Marine animal free feeds” and providing feed samples
  • Packaging requirements after the fish are raised
  • Where fish can be sold and how to request additional countries to be added
  • Notification requirements and sales reporting

We will also discuss the 2- and 4-year contest tracks.  In the past, we have seen partnerships across the value chain, including ingredient suppliers, feed companies, and retailers, gain a competitive edge.  We will describe how teams can be registered.

Bring any questions about the contest to the Judges themselves, and learn about any updates.
