In a 8-week production-scale experiment at a commercial trout farm, the effects of dietary lipid level and phosphorus level on phosphorus (P) and nitrogen ( N) utilization of rainbow trout ( initial mean weight 99 g) were assessed. A low-phosphorus, high-lipid experimental diet ( 457 g protein, 315 g lipid, 9.1 g P kg(-1) dry diet) was compared with a commonly used commercial diet (484 g protein, 173 g lipid, 13.6 g P kg(-1) dry diet). P and N budgets were constructed using data from the production-scale experiment and digestibility data for the two diets. In addition, orthophosphate and ammonia-N waste were measured in effluent over one 24-h period. Relative to the commercial diet, the experimental diet resulted in significantly increased feed efficiency ratio, N retention and P retention, and substantially reduced dissolved, solid and total P waste (g kg(-1) dry feed). Although N retention resulting from the experimental diet was higher, this was attributable to higher N ( protein) digestibility of the experimental diet. Solid N waste (g kg(-1) dry feed) resulting from the experimental diet was substantially lower, but dissolved N waste (g kg(-1) dry feed) was not significantly different relative to the commercial diet. Mean effluent orthophosphate production (mg day(-1) kg(-1) fish) of fish fed the experimental diet was substantially lower than that of fish fed the commercial diet (P < 0.05), but effluent ammonia-N production (mg day(-1) kg(-1) fish) was not significantly affected by dietary treatment.
