Feed has been Tongwei’s core business. The feed production has been on the rise since 2008 except the decrease in 2010.

The aquafeed production volume of 2010 was 1.38 million tons, a year-on-year decrease of 6.7%.
The 2013 growth rate of feed production hit the record low since 2008 (except 2010), while the aquafeed growth rate of 2012 arrived at 29%. The main reasons for slower growth are: 1.
