    The relationship between feed management practices and the economic efficiency of the farming operation is an important consideration for farmers and provides them with the rationale for choosing one feed management practice over another. It is economically important to optimize feed management practices that impact feed conversion ratio (FCR) and, ultimately, profitability. Amongst others, these include optimizing feeding frequency, ration and rearing temperature. The TCP project undertook to improve feed formulation and feeding strategy for these two species to improve FCR, formulate cost-effective feeds using locally available feed ingredients, improve feeding strategy to reduce FCR, feed wastage and water pollution, and provide guidelines for feed manufacturers and milkfish and Nile tilapia farmers. Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO of the UN) undertook the project in collaboration with the Inland Fisheries and Aquaculture Department (IFAD) of the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR) in the Philippines.
