Emerging Trends In Salmonid RAS: Parti. Closed-Containment Culture Advances

摘要

The benefits realized by recirculating aquaculture systems -including enhanced fish growth, product quality and survival, as well as reduced treatment costs — have made the RAS approach an important production trend. Existing operations are demonstrating that land-based closed-containment technology is adequate for the production of salmon and other food fish. RAS production is scaling up to achieve economies of scale. Locally produced, RAS-grown fish offer many advantages that can be used to market the product.
