Aquaculture-fisheries products continuum
Aquaculture exports commodities
Sea fish landed in Peterhead harbour (UK) (largest white fish harbour in EU)
International context: Pangasius, the everyday fish.

Why research? The case of Pangasius
Local ambitions: land conversion and infrastructures dev.
Why research? The case of Pangasius
Retain margins:-Dropping market prices. -Rising production costs.
Shift from quantity to quality:-concerns about pollution.-controversial practices.

Why research? The case of Pangasius
Food standards have kept access to market
for export commodities:
Yet, how to bring added value to farmers?
Feed costs.
Poor seed quality.
Diseases outbreaks.
Etc.
Creating impacts for farmersOur strategic approach: Feed and feeding management
Why feed and feeding? Some facts
Feed represent 64 to 92% of costs for farmers in the MD:

Spin-off effects from FCR
E.g. for 1 hectare of Pangasius (300T/ha):
Save 45 t. of dry feed
= - 178 500 000 VND
- 63 t. of sludge =
Less 2 t. of nitrogen = - 921 kg of NH4
Improved environment< Pumping costs =
Good health = < Chemicals costs
Less 6.3 t. of undigestedfeed
FCR – 10%
Improved feed formulation Better feeding management

Higher yield?
Better product?
Better demand?
Higher prices?

Our R&D aquafarmInfrastructures and business orientation
The design of the farm allow to conduct diverse type of experimental activities:
Formulation trials.
Test lab for new productions models & innovative technologies.
Training facility and demonstration platform.
Possible to produce most of the local species on the same farm (freshwater/saltwater):
Our 6 ha R&D aquafarm
Indoor OutdoorFarm layout
Indoor system: formulation trials
State of the art aquaculture recirculated syst. for optimal conditions:
2 models: Performances & digestibility tanks.
3 module sizes: 109 tanks from 150, 750 and 2000 l.
Cost-effective filtration: fixed bed/moving bed/UV/airlifts.
We work at the nutrient level
Feed benchmarkFormulation development & performances.
Ingredient calibration
We develop hands-on solutions for farmers
Outdoor system: effect of practices and technology
Adaptive and secure ponds system:
3 pond models: feed trials, technology lab, demo.
3 main modules: mini-ponds (13), hapas (96), real scale ponds (9), demo (1).
Security/flexibility: in-out water treatment, flow-through/closed, liners.
Test feed in real conditions
Develop new production models
Serves as a technology lab
We propose different solutions from 2017:
R&D services offer
We provide the technical support for your research. Research tailored to your
requirements.
Partnership
