Allen Davis

Dr. Allen Davis is a Professor in the School of Fisheries, Aquaculture & Aquatic Sciences at Auburn University's College of Agriculture. His research advances sustainable aquaculture through nutritional innovations, feed technology, and system optimization.

Key research areas: (1) Alternative protein/energy sources (yeast products, fermented feeds); (2) Precision nutrient requirements for shrimp, tilapia, snapper and catfish; (3) Feed additives (proteases, probiotics, humic substances) enhancing growth/immunity; (4) Water quality management in recirculating/biofloc systems; and (5) Aquaponic integration.

Recent work (2024-2025) evaluates yeast-based additives, dissolved oxygen setpoints, and probiotic applications in high-density systems. He provides industry extension services, advising on feed formulations and manufacturing practices globally.
