African catfish in SmartRAS virtual demo event December 5th 2022
We would like to invite you see for yourself the scale up of our project innovations, seeing SmartRAS in action at AquaBioTech Group Innovia Research Facility, where feed trials are underway with feeds containing Candida yeast meal, produced especially as a fishmeal replacement protein source by NORCE for the project. African catfish have specially selected as part of the MATE selective breeding program for their utilisation of alternative protein feeds in flow through systems in Hungary. The resulting selected fish are now being compared to non-selected African catfish in the AquaBioTech Group precision Recirculating Aquaculture Systems to demonstrate the applicability to other production methods. Meet the study coordinator Dr Giovanni Marco Cusimano and the technical team as they explain how their demonstration trials are helping to advance SmartRAS, and the New Feeds and Breeding program of the project.
