Although intensive eel farming in Italy is widespread, the control of farming parameters such as conversion index, final size, survival, etc. may still be improved. The influence of the addition of an aminoacid pool plus oligo-elements during the fattening phase was tested under industrial conditions in two different plants. Two ponds contained control animals; in the other two the animals received a mixture of feed plus the amino-acid integrator (500 g/100 kg of feed). The main zootechnical result was the demonstration, in all experimental conditions, of the positive effect of amino-acid integration: the weight gain increased up to 14.2% and the conversion index up to 13.8%.
