Paper prepared for the FAO Fisheries Department; the latter requested as an FAO authors contract in support of Article 9 of the Code of Conduct for Responsible Fisheries (CCRF) concerning Aquaculture Development (FAO, 1997), and in particular in support of Article 9.4.3 of CCRF concerning the selection and use of feeds and additives. The draft technical guidelines cover a range of issues, ranging from ingredient purchasing, processing, bulk storage, handling, monitoring, and documentation, to issues such as employee training and safety, customer relations, and the delivery of finished goods to the farmer. However, issues relating to the handling and management of manufactured aquaculture feeds by farmers on the farm are not covered here.
