Our latest article was developed from a partnership project (MedAID) among Mediterranean countries. We established the first benchmarking tool for quantifying biosecurity levels in food fish. The findings revealed that land-based hatcheries and pre-growing facilities exhibit higher internal and external biosecurity levels. However, on-growing facilities face biosecurity challenges due to limited control over seawater exposure. Farm location plays a critical role in influencing external biosecurity, emphasizing the importance of spatial planning in aquaculture. Across all farm types, low biosecurity scores were recorded for vaccination, biosecurity programs, and record keeping, highlighting the need for improvement. https://lnkd.in/dY2FvTmd

"Selection Criteria for Fish Fingerlings and Yearlings in Aquaculture" As aquaculture professionals, we understand the importance of selecting high-quality fish fingerlings and yearlings for our operations. The right selection criteria can make all the difference in ensuring robust growth, disease resistance, and efficient production. Key Criteria: 1. Genetic Pedigree: Prioritize fish with desirable traits like fast growth, high feed conversion efficiency, and disease resistance. 2. Genetic Diversity: Maintain genetic diversity to reduce the risk of inbreeding and promote healthy growth. 3. Phenotypic Characteristics: Select fish with good physical appearance, uniform size, and weight. 4. Growth Performance: Choose individuals with higher growth rates and consistent monitoring. 5. Health and Immunocompetence: Ensure disease-free status, robust immune systems, and vaccination programs. 6. Stress Response: Select fish with strong stress tolerance and minimal stress-related behaviors. 7. Environmental Adaptability: Ensure temperature tolerance and adaptability to local water conditions. By integrating these comprehensive selection criteria, we can ensure the success and sustainability of our aquaculture operations. Let's prioritize robust growth, disease resistance, and efficient production while promoting long-term sustainability and ethical practices in our industry. #Aquaculture #Sustainability #FishFarming #SelectionCriteria #Genetics #Health #Growth #StressResponse #EnvironmentalAdaptability
