Re; AQB metrics

I don't understand how AQB can get close to 1:1 feed to weight gain yield...

The 1:1 ratio AQB seeks is the “fish-in : fish-out” (FIFO) ratio. I.e. AQB wants to substitute synthetic feed for conventional fish meal derived from wild fish.

How much faster does the GM salmon grow compared to existing farmed salmon?

About 70% faster, which equates to roughly 40% less growing time. The average time to marketable size for AquAdvantage is 18-20 months versus 28-36 months for conventional farmed salmon (https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1603978/000119312516806691/d275549dex991.htm page 60).
