Altogether 36 participants from a total of eight countries were present during the two days workshop. The main aim of the meeting was to organise a 3rd workshop in the ELCE network. ELCE wanted to continue the positive development within the network between Nordic companies and institutions carrying out research and commercial attempts with the European lobster. Due to a strong interest from countries outside the Nordic region, several European companies and research institutions were also invited in order to highlight status on lobster aquaculture in Europe.

  • Shrimp Aquaculture & Olive Production - Sustainable Integration
    SHRIMP AQUACULTURE & OLIVE PRODUCTION - SUSTAINABLE INTEGRATION By Dennis McIntosh1*, Kevin Fitzsimmons1, Jose Aguilar2 and Craig Collins2 1 University of Arizona, Environmental Research Lab 2601 E. Airport Dr. Tucson, Arizona 85706 2 Wood Brothers' Farm Gila Bend, Arizona *Phone: (520) 626-3318 *Fax: (520) 573-0852 *E-mail: [email protected] Introduction The efficient utilization of resources, be it man power, fertilizer, water or even light and heat, has long been the aim of agriculture. Countless agricultural methods have been developed and perfected over the years to maximize production. Innovations such as greenhouses and genetic engineering have enabled agriculture to be successful even in areas where it might not otherwise be possible. Prior to the widespread use of commercial farming, the integration of various aspects of farm production was commonplace (Fernando and Halwart 2000). Today, as consumers and producers alike become more environmentally conscience, we are seeing a renewed interest in more efficient and better utilization of resources. By integrating aquaculture production into traditional agriculture, the impact of farming on already limited water resources (Prinsloo and Schoonbee 1993; Ingram et al. 2000) and the reliance on chemical fertilizers can be reduced (Fernando and Halwart 2000). Various methods have been proposed over the years to merge the farming of aquatic animals with field crops and/or terrestrial animals (Prinsloo and Schoonbee 1987; Ruddle and Zhong 1988; Fernando and Halwart 2000). To date, much effort has gone into small-scale (subsistence level) sustainable production of plants and animals (Lightfoot et al. 1993; Gupta et al. 1997), with one common approach being the use of agriculture wastes (manures and plant wastes for example) as a fertilizer for fish ponds, effectively converting unusable proteins into a usable commodity (Prinsloo and Schoonbee 1987; Prinsloo and Schoonbee 1993).

Conclusion – Page 26 6. Appendix – Page 28 7. Sources – Page 29 2 Abstract As circular economy systems gain popularity with the environmental movement, the combination of raising fish (aquaculture) and growing crops outside of soil (hydroponics) appeals to many, especially in low-resource areas. But how environmentally friendly is it really, especially when compared to other farming technologies? This study aims to measure the energy, water, and nutrient inputs of a tilapia and tomato aquaponics system over a six-month growing season and compare those numbers to plant and fish biomass outputs. Then, the data is compared to traditional tomato farming, aquaculture, and hydroponics technologies to determine which has the best input to output ratios in each category. The system output 45.1 kg of plant biomass, 91.9 kg of tomatoes, and 21.6 kg of tilapia. Aquaponics is found to consume more water and energy than traditional and hydroponic tomato growth methods. Traditional farming was found to use 31.9 L water/kg tomato and produce 19.2 gCO2e/kg tomato. Hydroponics was found to consume 17 L water/kg tomato and produce 209 gCO2e/kg tomato.

  • High Performance of Aquaponic System for Western Kenya
    High Performance of Aquaponic System for Western Kenya Introduction Fisheries and aquaculture play important roles in providing food and income in many developing countries, either as a stand-alone activity or in association with crop agriculture and livestock rearing. Attempts to come up with innovative production methods to enhance production of fish from the wild and through technology-enhanced aquaculture is widely sought. Aquaponics, the integrated culture of fish and other aquatic organisms with plants is one such technology that has been proposed. However, this technology remains largely untried in Kenya and much of Africa. Though it has a great potential to produce for Kenya and other developing countries, Aquaponics is still a young science . 70 Materials and Methods Width/Treatment: 15fish/tank Width/Treatment: 30fish/tank Width/Treatment: 45fish/tank The study was conducted at the University of Eldoret hatchery . 60 Eighteen plastic rectangular tanks of 100L each were used during this experiment. There were three aquaponic treatments each stocked 50 with Monosexed Nile tilapia fingerlings. The fish were stocked at densities of 15fingerlings/tank, 30 fish/tank and 45 fish/tank for 40 treatments 1, 2 and 3 respectively. These treatments were replicated four times. Each treatment was be subjected to a 16 lettuce density 30 per m2. Water quality was monitored and recorded using photometer 9500, Ysi DO and temperature Meter and Ysi photolab.
