ASTRAL is a Horizon 2020 collaborative project that focuses on integrated multi-trophic aquaculture (IMTA) farming.
Om oss
ASTRAL will develop new, sustainable, profitable and resilient value chains for integrated multi-trophic aquaculture (IMTA) production within the framework of existing, emerging and potential Atlantic markets. The proposal gathers four IMTA labs including open offshore (Ireland, Scotland), flow-through inshore (South Africa) and recirculation inshore (Brazil) systems and one prospective IMTA lab (Argentina), focusing on a regional challenge-based perspective, including fish, mollusc, echinoderm, crustacean and algae species. ASTRAL will increase circularity by 50-60% compared to monoculture baseline aquaculture and will provide a circular business model, boosting revenue diversification for aquaculture producers increasing profitability by at least 30%. New and improved innovative technology will be developed, including biosensors, sensors, IoT and an AI data analytics platform to be validated at IMTA labs at TRL 5. Potential environmental and climatic risks for Northern and Southern Atlantic regions will be addressed, delivering a monitoring programme and recommendations for Harmful Algal Blooms (HABs), pathogens and microplastics. ASTRAL will deliver an ambitious and gender-sensitive human capital development plan (HUCAP) which will improve professional skills and create a highly trained workforce. ASTRAL will share, integrate and co-generate knowledge, technology, practices and efforts with and for society, oriented towards pro-poor and gender-sensitive development. A collaborative ecosystem will be provided within the project framework bringing together and connecting industrial partners, SMEs, scientists, policy makers, social representatives and other relevant stakeholders promoting data exchange, knowledge sharing and business opportunities. ASTRAL has received funding from the EU's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 863034.

Head of Biodiversity & Blue Economy 🇪🇺 AIR Centre - Atlantic International Research Centre | Marine Geoscientist & Environmental Researcher | PhD Marine Sciences 🌊
❓ How to ensure sustainable, resilient and profitable food systems in these challenging times? ❓Can we feed a growing population while not harming the environment? ❓How can we achieve environmental, economic and social sustainability in aquaculture production? ❓How can we improve Integrated Multi-Trophic Aquaculture (IMTA) production along the Atlantic Ocean? We have been working for the last 4 years in the ASTRAL Project to contribute to answering these questions. The project has come to an end but we still have too much to say 🗣️ Check our Legacy Booklet where we share our outstanding achievements. 📃 https://lnkd.in/d8xnn_Ey #ASTRAL #H2020 #aquaculture #atlantic #cooperation #eufunding #atlantic #blueeconomy #sustainability #foodproduction

We are thrilled to announce the release of our final species production manual IMTA Production Manual – Land-Based Pump Ashore 🌿🌊 Tailored to land-based IMTA systems, this manual focuses on techniques for integrated cultivation of species growth using pump ashore systems with partial recirculation, with an emphasis on sustainability, diversification, biosecurity and resource recirculation. Land-based species trialled at IMTA lab South Africa - Buffeljags Abalone Farm (a subsidiary of the Viking Aquaculture group), included fed and extractive species of abalone, sea urchins and seaweed.
