aquacultuR: A Comprehensive R Tool for Zootechnical Metrics

A collection of functions to compute frequently used metrics for nutrition trials in aquaculture. Implementations include metrics to calculate growth, feed conversion, nutrient use efficiency, and feed digestibility. The package supports reproducible workflows for summarising experimental results and reduces manual calculation errors. For additional information see Machado e Silva, Karthikeyan and Tellbüscher (2025) <doi:10.13140/RG.2.2.27322.04808>.
