As part of the work package three Demonstration experiments for land based ponds and flow through- which featured the testing newly selected African catfish (Clarias gariepinus) lines on pilot feeds for African catfish- partners Bajcshal, with support of MATE, will be opening their farm in Hungary for a farm demonstration event. Participating Hungarian producers and other invited stakeholders will be given the opportunity to see the iFishIENCi Demo in action. 

Date:  Wednesday 18th, January 2023 

This event will be held in Hungarian for selected participants.

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.
