Sacks of ground fishmeal in a factory in Chumphon, #Thailand. Fishmeal is a coarsely ground powder made from cooked wild fish, bycatch and what is known as trash fish – fish with little market value. The demand for fishmeal, used to feed pets and livestock, has caused overfishing that threatens to collapse the bottom of the food chain.
