Indonesia AQUACULTURE MARKET
Indonesia is the largest archipelagic country in the world, with vast sea areas and extremely rich aquatic resources, which has laid a natural foundation for its developed aquaculture and fishing industry.
For this reason, Indonesia’s aquatic products market has formed a very distinct pattern, and the core categories are catfish, tilapia and various shrimps. Among them, Java Island and Sumatra Island are the two core aquaculture producing areas in Indonesia, while Bagan Siabia Fishing Ground on the east coast of Sumatra Island is a world-famous natural fishing ground, which delivers high-quality seafood to domestic and international markets all the year round.
In recent years, the Indonesian government has deliberately increased its investment in fishery development, and under the impetus of policies, the aquaculture industry has flourished all the way.
But the industry is on fire, and new demand is coming-now the market demand for high-quality aquatic feed is particularly large and urgent. Unfortunately, Indonesia’s local high-end feed production capacity can’t keep up, especially the shrimp feed and high-end puffed fish feed with the highest technical difficulty, and the gap is quite obvious.
This is a rare market opportunity for feed enterprises with advanced technology and production or investors who invest in the feed industry.
For these individuals, it is undoubtedly the key to seize the blue economic opportunity in Southeast Asia to deeply participate in the Indonesian aquatic product market, especially to make a strategic layout in the field of high-tech and high value-added aquatic feed.
CLIENT PROJECT DETAILS
This shrimp feed pellet production project is located in Indonesia. It is mainly used to produce shrimp feed (sinking feed). It is shrimp feed production line with a relatively high degree of automation.
After the customer decided to invest in building a fish feed This customer is located in the eastern part of Indonesia. Seeing the huge market and potential in the shrimp feed field in the region, he decided to invest in building a shrimp feed pellet mill.
But for the customer, this is a relatively large project and a turnkey project, so the customer is more cautious when choosing a manufacturer. Before looking for shrimp feed pellet machine manufacturers, the customers already had a comprehensive plan and program, and clearly knew what kind of manufacturer they needed.
Therefore, when looking for shrimp feed pellet machine manufacturers, the scope was relatively narrow, and they quickly found us. They thought that we were a more professional shrimp feed pellet machine manufacturer and could complete their investment and factory construction plan, so they quickly chose us.
The customer hopes to improve the local shrimp feed farming situation through this shrimp feed pellet line, so he attached great importance to this project and communicated with our designers and engineers many times before finalizing the production plan.
At present, the shrimp feed pellet mill has been officially put into operation and has achieved very good results locally.
CUSTOM-TAILORED SOLUTION
The main raw materials used in this shrimp feed pellet line are fish meal, yeast powder, soybean lecithin, wheat bran, soybean meal, etc. In addition, there are vitamins, oils, premixes and other substances that need to be added to the feed.
These raw materials can be used to produce shrimp feed pellet of different lengths from 0.6 to 8 mm through this shrimp feed pellet line to meet the growth and development of shrimp feed of different species and growth stages.
This production line is a shrimp feed pellet line with a relatively high degree of automation. The entire production process includes batching system, crushing system, mixing system, pelleting system, cooling system and packing system. The machine in each section is relatively complete, and it is a relatively complete shrimp feed pellet line.
Batching System
The customer initially planned to use manual batching, but considering that there are many types of raw materials for shrimp feed production and manual batching requires more workers, the final solution was to use automatic batching. We designed 10 raw material warehouses for the customer.
01
Crushing System
Since the raw materials for shrimp feed production are mostly high in fat, high in protein and low in starch, it is difficult to crush them. In addition, the crushing particle size of the raw materials for shrimp feed production is relatively high, so it is crushed twice. The hammer mill is used for both crushing operations.
02
Mixing System
The whole production process requires two mixings. The first is after the batching is completed, using mixer to mix the materials; the second is after the two crushings are completed, vitamins, additives and other materials need to be put into the mixer through the small material feeding port and mixed with the crushed materials.
03
Pelleting System
The production line is equipped with shrimp feed pelletizer with three-layer modulator. Both feed extruders and feed pelletizers can be used to produce shrimp feed, but from an economic perspective, the cost of shrimp feed pelletizers will be lower, so the customer decided to use shrimp feed pelletizers after comprehensive consideration.
04
Cooling System
The feed pellets coming out of the pellet mill are at high temperature. If you want to quickly cool them to room temperature, you need to use feed cooler.
Below this feed cooler is crumbler, and the crushed small feed pellets can be used to feed shrimps. The crumbler used for shrimp feed is fine-size crumbler that can crush pellets to about 0.6mm.
05
Packing System
After the cooled shrimp feed pellets are screened, the qualified shrimp feed pellets are sent to the packing machine for packing.
Shrimp feed pellets can be packed into 10-50 kg/bags of shrimp feed through the packing system, which is easy to store and transport and can meet different sales needs.

After installation, our after-sales service team will proactively monitor equipment operation. Even after the warranty expires, customers can still reach out anytime for expert support, and we’ll promptly supply any needed spare parts.
Customer evaluation and project operation status
From installation to production, this Indonesian customer witnessed the performance of RICHI shrimp feed pellet equipment all the way:
“We’re a local shrimp feed company in Sumatra, mainly supplying shrimp farms in North Sumatra and the Riau Islands. Last year, we brought in that 2-ton-per-hour shrimp feed pellet production line you designed—and honestly, this set of shrimp feed pelleting equipment has been such a nice surprise for us!
Right from the start of installing this 2-ton/hour shrimp feed pellet line, we could tell it was different. Your engineers were so thoughtful: they looked into the quality of the palm kernel meal and fish meal we use here ahead of time, and even worked out a voltage stabilization plan based on our factory’s power supply. What’s even more considerate is that the control cabinet has a moisture-proof seal—you know, our workshop gets pretty humid, so with this design, we never have to worry about short circuits anymore.
Now this shrimp feed pellet line has been running steadily for over ten months. We run two shifts a day, and it basically hits full production capacity. Plus, the shrimp feed pellets it makes are super even, with neat cuts, and they hold up really well in water. The shrimp farmers all say that when they feed their shrimp with our feed, the shrimp eat well, and their survival rate has gone up a lot too.
We really want to thank you for helping us make good shrimp feed right here in Indonesia!”
Indonesia Shrimp Feed Pellet Line: Value and Trend
In Indonesia, modern shrimp feed pellet lines do more than just cut waste and ensure consistency—they’re essential for intensive shrimp farming. As BFT systems spread and export standards rise, locally made traceable feeds with specific functions have become mandatory. In the future, producers offering flexible capacity, stable quality, and fast response will win farmer trust and dominate this high-potential market.
Types of feed suitable for production in Indonesia
As an archipelagic nation with vast waters and rapid population growth, Indonesia centers its feed sector on aquaculture feed and poultry feed. While smaller in scale, ruminant feed also offers growth opportunities.
（1）Aquaculture Feed
This is Indonesia’s most critical, fastest-growing, and profitable segment.
Shrimp Feed
Indonesia ranks among the world’s top shrimp producers. High-quality sinking pellets for Litopenaeus vannamei are an absolute necessity and highly competitive.
Tilapia/Catfish Feed
These fish provide mainstream protein for local consumers—demand is massive. Sinking or slow-sinking expanded pellets dominate production volume here.
Grouper/Sea Bass Feed
Rising demand for high-value marine species follows offshore cage culture expansion; expanded pellets lead this trend.
Channa striata Feed
A prized local predatory fish—developing dedicated feed could tap into unmet market potential.
（2）Poultry Feed
Indonesia’s most mature livestock sector demands consistent quality at scale.
Broiler Feed
Requires phase-specific formulations (starter, grower, finisher), primarily based on corn & soybean meal.
Layer Feed
Split into grower and layer phases; precise mineral (Ca, P) and amino acid balance is essential.
（3）Ruminant Feed
Poultry industry is the most mature animal husbandry industry in Iran, and the demand for feed has been great and stable.
Beef Cattle Supplement feed
Concentrates paired with palm kernel cake/cassava residue accelerate weight gain on large-scale lots.
Dairy Cow Concentrate Feed
Target dairy farms near cities to boost milk yields.
Palm Byproduct-Based Feed
Leveraging Indonesia’s status as the world’s largest palm oil producer—cost-effective roughage from palm press fiber holds huge potential.
