Aker BioMarine appoints functional feed expert
Marianne Nergård has taken on the role of veterinarian and key account manager for QRILL Aqua sales in Aker BioMarine. In her new role, she is responsible for communicating the value of krill on the health and performance of various marine species, said the company.
Nergård has dedicated much of her career to investigating and communicating the effects of krill on fish health, it added.
Prior to joining Aker BioMarine, she spent five years at BioMar, working in product development and technical support on the functional feed side.
During her time at BioMar, she also worked closely with the R&D department, exploring the effects of high krill diets on fish, said Aker BioMarine. One of her main responsibilities was to communicate how feed influences fish health and welfare, as well as how it improves the overall fillet quality and performance, said the krill product producer.
