• Abstract

  From the 90's the fish production achieved world acceptance due to the inclusion of commercial diet in traditional systems. Polycultures were replaced by intensely feed monocultures, with a consequent increase in the cost of production and use of nutrients that can lead to the eutrophication of water bodies. The new aquaculture emerges with the challenge to be, at the same time, efficient…

• Abstract

  In the world, the great amount of aquaculture products comes from small and medium farms and in Brazil the family aquaculture also contributes to the production of fish. In the west of São Paulo State, producers of tilapia in cages show the high price of feed and the poor quality and lower amount of tilapia juveniles as the main problems of the sector. In this sense, the production of Nil…

  Best management practices in Nile Tilapia juvenile production, AP.R

• Abstract

  In Denmark and Brazil close 50% of the adult population suffers from medium or severe over-weight and welfare diseases are increasing, but Brazil also has 10 mio people suffering from malnutrition. A change in dietary habits to more protein-rich food might reduce these health issues. Fish are a valuable protein source, but provide also vital fatty acids and minerals. Fish in natural water…

• Abstract

  Several concerns regarding the future of growing Aquaculture production are emerging, especially due to negative environmental impacts of the activity. Many systems, models and production techniques, such as bioflocs, aquaponics, integrated multitrophic, policultures and recirculation, have been developed due to the concerns with the environmental degradation of Aquaculture production. Cu…

  Tilapia production systems with certification potential, BP.DR

• Abstract

  The aquaculture exponential growth has attracted the attention of researchers, civil society and non-governmental organizations concerned with the environmental, economic and social impacts related to the activity. In this way, it is essential to know how sustainable the systems really are for efficient activity management. Thus, the only way to do this is through sustainability assessmen…
