🚨New paper! How are industrial innovations contributing to the development of a new blue economy in Norway? We explored a case from salmon aquaculture, where attempts have been made at materializing mobile farms. The paper is part of my PhD project! https://lnkd.in/gaiRzqyM

If you work in the #BlueEconomy in Australia and in particular, #Aquaculture, this idea, and this online session, is a big deal. Space and support for #Innovation is incredibly important for the future of the industry, and also the country. Who knows what awesome tech will be battle-tested in the waves off Bass Strait? And if we can co-ordinate our efforts, who knows what partnerships could evolve. Could be great.

African mollusks A new species of mollusks (Sphaeriinae) that live in Morocco's reservoirs has been described. They are of importance for aquaculture and fisheries, as the Sphaeriinae play a key role in the nutrient cycle in aquatic ecosystems. Mollusks of this group are food for fish, including for valuable species. Specialists from Russia and Morocco have been studying African corbicula mollusks that are very aggressive invaders into territories outside their range in Asia. On July 1, the Center joined the Russian-African Network University Consortium - which today is the only association of scientific organizations and universities of the Russian Federation and African countries. Its work is coordinated by Russia's Ministry of Science and Higher Education. (Part Two, The End) #business #finance #financialservices

🌏 Strengthening Sino-French 🇨🇳 🇫🇷 Cooperation in Aquaculture 🐟 We are thrilled to announce a new chapter in international collaboration. On October 18th, 2024, the Freshwater Fisheries Research Centre (FFRC) of the Chinese Academy of Fisheries Science (CAFS) and CIRAD signed a bilateral cooperation framework agreement.  ➡️ https://lnkd.in/gwqJDFGF CIRAD, represented by François Roger and jean-michel mortillaro, stressed that we must achieve tangible outcomes that will benefit not only our institutions but also the communities we serve. This partnership opens the door to joint research, technology promotion, and talent development in sustainable aquaculture 🦐   💡 Dr. Bing Xuwen, Deputy Director of FFRC, highlighted the importance of global aquaculture sustainability and expressed excitement about working together with CIRAD to achieve meaningful milestones. Dr. Wang Jiadi, Deputy Director of the CAFS International Cooperation Office, emphasised the potential of this agreement to accelerate bilateral cooperation through shared strengths.  Both institutions are committed to advancing research, academic exchange, and capacity building in aquaculture, setting the stage for a new era of development in the field.  We look forward to witnessing the positive impact of this partnership on aquaculture practices and sustainable development worldwide Kazi Kabir #SustainableDevelopment #Aquaculture #InternationalCooperation #ResearchAndInnovation #China #France #CIRAD #FFRC

Interesting research goes on in the SFI Dsolve project where the target is to identify future solutions for plastic biodegradation in marine environments, and Norner AS are in the centre of this development.

A very interesting subject!!

What is AquaVision 2024? Scroll here for some fast facts about the world's premier aquaculture business conference - happening June 10-12 in Stavanger this year! #AquaVision2024

With over 28,000 views, this special issue published in Fishes MDPI (ISSN 2410-3888) considers new paradigms of aquaculture to promote a more sustainable, conservative, and restorative production process. Approaches that help contribute to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) include the rearing of low-trophic species, and the integration of multi-spatial, multi-niche, or multi-trophic aquaculture systems. Guest edited by Prof. Dr. Wagner C. Valenti of Sao Paulo State University- The Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP) and Prof. Dr. Eduardo Luis Ballester of Universidade Federal do Paraná.
