A demonstration feeding trial was conducted cooperatively by the American Soybean Association International Marketing (ASA-IM) program and the Nanjing Municipal Fishery Extension Center at Nanjing, Jiangsu Province, China, with a native snakehead species Ophiocephalus argus. The trial was conducted to demonstrate to fish farmers in the region that high quality extruded feed could replace fresh fish for the production of snakehead fingerlings in ponds.
