Hybrid flow-through salmon farming (HFS) in Iceland is mixing pure Icelandic sea with innovative technology. The result, superior salmon that is farmed in optimal conditions, free from lice and protected from disease. As can be gathered from the Spheric report, Investor appetite for this type of proven land-based salmon farming in Iceland is healthy and growing.
Congratulations to Spheric Research and Undercurrent News on the successful completion of the 4th edition of the Land-Based Aquaculture Report! A job well done. The report offers valuable insights into the growing success of hybrid flow-through technology (HFS) in the salmon farming industry, with Iceland emerging as a prime location for its adoption. GeoSalmo benefits from both of these advantages, having secured: 1. An ideal location in Iceland for its farm. 2. A reliable turnkey provider in Artec Aqua, which designed and built the Salmon Evolution hybrid flow-through facility in Indre Harøy. Matt Craze, Oriana Aguillon #Iceland #Salmon #Aquaculture

Exciting progress in aquaculture Integrated Multitrophic Aquaculture (IMTA) promotes sustainability by cultivating fish, shellfish, and seaweed together. A great step towards a healthier future
Case Study: Integrated Multitrophic Aquaculture (IMTA) in Canada In recent years, Canadian aquaculture has been pioneering sustainable methods that are redefining how we think about fish farming. One inspiring approach is Integrated Multitrophic Aquaculture (IMTA), a method where fish, shellfish, and seaweed are cultivated together in a symbiotic system. 🔹 What Makes IMTA Unique? IMTA leverages the natural interactions between species to reduce waste and improve environmental sustainability. Fish release nutrients into the water, which are absorbed by seaweed, while shellfish help filter the water, creating a balanced ecosystem. This approach reduces the need for additional feed and chemicals, making it an eco-friendly alternative to traditional aquaculture. 🔹 Results in Canada Canadian IMTA facilities have shown promising results. By combining species like salmon, mussels, and kelp, they’ve created a closed-loop system where each species benefits from the others. This not only reduces environmental impact but also improves profitability by diversifying the types of products harvested. 🔹 Why This Matters for Aquaculture’s Future IMTA represents a shift towards sustainable aquaculture practices that prioritize both environmental health and economic resilience. It’s a compelling model for how the industry can innovate and meet global demand without compromising the ecosystems on which it relies. 🌱 Takeaway: IMTA could pave the way for a more sustainable aquaculture industry, demonstrating how nature-inspired solutions can help us meet growing food needs responsibly. #Aquaculture #Sustainable_Farming #IMTA #Canada_Aquaculture #Blue_Economy #Eco_Friendly #Fish_Farming #Marine_Science #Circular_Economy Please read this: Aquaculture in Canada: Integrated Multi-Trophic Aquaculture (IMTA) https://lnkd.in/dVZ-cpMw

July 1, 2024 Show '3': Erik Wilton Hagberg, CEO - Pacific Aquaculture Cooperatives International, (In Studio), Theme: "Island-by-Island Model Infrastructure Development for Sustainable Sea Cumbers Farming" Overview: Erik Wilton Hagberg, CEO, Pacific Aquaculture Cooperatives International is credited for creating a system of Sea Cucumbers grown in the wild among South Pacific Island Nations (SIDS) on a sustainable basis. His pioneering work has been seen as all natural to enhance the expanding sources of protein and many other highly nutritious food related products as well as traditional homeopathic medical properties of the Sea Cucumbers. "EriK" works closely with local Pacific based island populations to protect the native habitats of Sea Cucumbers in collaboration with Dr. Thomas J. Goreau and his "BioRock" invention. Such collaborative work is allowing for the over harvested Sea Cucumbers populations to regenerate while demonstrating stable harvesting methods for local and inner-island sources of food and revenue. Such efforts are providing sustainable local food sources, small businesses development in the processing and packaging of this highly important protein sources, while creating jobs for dozens and hundreds of local island people. The "Global Coral Reef Initiatives" headed by Dr. Thomas J. Goreau is an inventor and provider of the world's leading coral reef restoration technology. "BioRock" technology uses renewable energy sources to grow limestone over a steel aperture in sea water. BioRock caused transplanted corals to grow two to six times faster than naturally and makes them up to 50 times more resilient to coral bleaching from high sea surface temperatures associated with sea level rise. BioRock produces the only known substance to make marine installations grow stronger and thicker over time rather than corrode and decay. Dr. Goreau is a leader in responsive action to Global Climate Change. He has active BioRock installations in over 20 countries worldwide. The PanAmerican PanAfrican Association PaPa) was established in 1968 by its founder Dr. Robert Starling Pritchard II, Dr. Pritchard is a world renown author, publisher, researcher, musician, composer, community activist, humanitarian, and leader among Non Governmental Organizations at the United Nations. Now led by Henri Georges Polgar, the PaPa NGO maintains Consultative Status to the Economic and Social Council of the United Nations. This organization is recognized as a founder of Black History Month in America, provides consultants to global interests and governments, organizes indigenous peoples representation to the United Nations, and has sustainable development coordinators operating under the premise of "Mutuality of Benefit" as it pertains to business, civil society, and diplomacy.
