No Purpose of the Shadow Network on Fish Quality
More research in recent years has provided significant insight into how the sun affects temperature and quality of dried fish. This shows that shadow network has no impact on the quality of the fish.

New Research Allows Early Identification of Male Tilapia
Tilapia breeding is profitable only if it is solely focused on male populations. Hormonal inversion methods currently used to produce these populations have, however, many drawbacks. CIRAD has been investigating a genetic approach for several years and...

Aquaponics: Recycling Fish Waste
Using effluent from fish farming ponds to feed plants while retreating the water naturally is the basic principle of aquaponics. It is also behind an ambitious project called Apiva. It involves the Lycée de la Canourgue college in Lozère, France, ITAVI,...

Cod Fillet – Fresh & Nematode-Free
Nofima scientist Agnar Sivertsen has developed a new system for automatic inspection of cod fillets known as hyperspectral imaging. As well as detecting unwanted elements, the system can provide information about how fresh the fish is.

Trial Confirms Salmon Can Thrive On Low Fishmeal & Fish Oil Feed
A 22-month trial with Atlantic salmon in a commercial scale farm in Norway demonstrated the practicality of using feed with low levels of marine protein. The trial followed a complete generation of salmon from smolt to harvest.
