The aquaponic journal issue 48 page 13 said wrote:
Helfter Feeds in Osco, IL offers a fish pellet that contains all organic agricultural products that conform to NOP's national list of materials acceptable for organic livestock production. www.helfterfeeds.com



*EDIT
Their phone # is USA 1-866-435-3837
The product is "Natural Fish Pellets"
9014910ORG50 50 pound bag
32% protein
The price is $54.45 per individual bag.
Shipping is $23.22 to my location for 1 bag or $107.86 for 5 bags

They said it is all "organic" however, they do not have a separate extruder to to qualify for the the organic rating...

DDM, not likely I will switch from Zeigler Bros as they are local and I can pick up a bag for $15. Seems counterproductive to ship the feed that far to save the environment, but would feel good to sacrifice a bit for them to succeed.

I pay about $20 for 50 puonds of fish feed. I would like organic feed, but I can not pay that much for it.
