GreenFin.
Fish feed built on duckweed protein from our own raceways outside Islamabad. Four lines for the fish Pakistan farms most, plus Duckweed Aquafeed for any fish. No fishmeal, no soy. Coming soon.
Pack designs shown in 3D.
GreenFin Carp Polyculture
Rohu, thaila, mori, grass carp and silver carp
Built for mixed carp ponds, the backbone of fish farming in Pakistan. One pellet for every carp in the water.
GreenFin Tilapia
Tilapia in ponds, tanks and cages
Made for a fish that grows fast and is stocked dense, so it needs protein it can count on.
GreenFin Catfish
Pangasius, magur and other catfish
A protein-rich pellet for hungry, fast-growing catfish. Clarias catfish is already eating GreenFin in trials at GCU Lahore.
Duckweed Aquafeed
Any fish, any pond
Our all-round duckweed pellet. It isn't tuned to one species, so it costs a little less.
GreenFin Ornamental
Goldfish, koi and aquarium fish
Small pellets for aquariums and garden ponds, in a smaller pack.
-
Protein grown in Pakistan
Duckweed from our own raceways outside Islamabad, not soybeans shipped across an ocean.
-
Up to 40% crude protein
In our dried duckweed, dry basis, across lab-tested batches.
Measured by a third-party laboratory on a specific sample. -

Kilo for kilo.
Our duckweed against the ingredients Pakistani fish farms buy today.
1 kg of our duckweed has the protein of 2½ kg of rice polish.
Protein as sold: our duckweed powder is about 31%; the others are from FAO carp feed tables.
-
3.8 ppb
Cleaner than the feed you buy
Total aflatoxins in our duckweed. More than 5 times under the 20 ppb US FDA limit for animal feed. A national Pakistani survey found cottonseed meal averaging 32 ppb.
-
Up to 10×
The protein of soybean, per acre
Published estimates put duckweed at up to 4 tonnes of protein per acre a year. Soybean manages about 0.4.
-
Every 3 days
A harvest, not once a season
We harvest more than 30 times in the time it takes one soybean crop to grow.
-
2×
The lysine of maize protein
Lysine is the amino acid fish run short of first on grain-based feed. Duckweed protein carries about twice as much as maize protein.
-
Clean
Tested for heavy metals
Grown on fresh borewell water, not wastewater. Lab tests found no heavy metals.
-
Zero
No gossypol. No glucosinolates. No wild fish.
The toxins that cap how much cottonseed and mustard cake you can feed aren't in duckweed. And with no fishmeal, no ocean fish go into the bag.
-
Natural colour
Lutein, zeaxanthin and β-carotene
The same natural pigments that turn egg yolks golden and keep goldfish and koi bright.

Straight from the ponds.

What's in it
Dried duckweed meal from our own raceways, blended with other feed ingredients and pressed into pellets. That's the protein, grown here.
No fishmeal. No soybean meal. Full formulations stay confidential; research partners can see them under a non-disclosure agreement.
The numbers so far
Lab-tested, and labelled so you know exactly where every number comes from.

How it's made
-
01 Duckweed covers our black-lined raceways near Islamabad.
-
02 We skim it off the surface and leave enough to regrow.
-
03 The harvest is dried into a protein-rich meal.
-
04 The meal is formulated and pressed into GreenFin pellets.
Coming soon.
Every feed in the range is on its way, with Carp Polyculture and Tilapia already on university trials. Message us to be first in line, or buy our duckweed powder today.
