• Aquaculture has changed a lot since the beginning in the 1970-ies

• High capacity sites: Harvest 10 000 – 12 000 t/year

• Large farming units – 6 000 m3 - 30 000 m3 per unit

• Automatic feeding

• Efficient logistics: Well boats – feed – packed salmon in boxes

• Large – medium sized and small companies

Norwegian aquaculture


A true sustainable solution respects the environment, create jobs and is economically

viable

Sustainability has three dimensions



Norway can offer a diverse number of solutions and areas for cooperation

Research and development (R&D)

Fisheries and aquaculture management

Solutions and hardware for the fisheries

Solutions and hardware for aquaculture

Set-up of solutions for fisheries, aquaculture and processing

Sustainable solutions for fisheries and aquaculture


• Like the fisheries and industries – the supplier industry is very diverse

• Big companies which are on the international arena

• Medium sized and small companies – on the Norwegian arena and the international arena

• The international focus increases

Industry

Research and development

Supplier industry

is the basis for innovation and high scientific quality

The Norwegian model - close collaboration

Innovation Norway and the Norwegian Research Council play an important role


• The suppliers, companies from the industry and R&D institutions cooperate in clusters to develop solutions and develop the supplier industry

• Teknologi akvARENA is a cluster for developing the supplier industry in aquaculture 50 members from suppliers, industry and R&D institutions

• Cooperate on specific issues – like internationalization – but still compete in the market

Clusters – an important arena

• Efficient fisheries and aquaculture management is a success factor

• Efficient law enforcement - power to implement regulations

• Long tradition of utilizing marine resources

• Based on advice from strong scientific institutions

• Norway is rated No. 1 in management of its commercial fish stocks

Fisheries and aquaculture management



• Important to find a balance between different users of the coastal zone Aquaculture – fisheries – tourism –nature conservation (National Parks, wildlife reserves)

• Aquaculture:

• Find sites with best production capacity Norwegian standard NS 9410 developed

• Find sites with minimum impact from and on other sites - diseases

• Distance between sites to reduce impact

• Use mathematical modelling to establish optimal site distribution

Coastal Zone Management


• The Norwegian fishing fleet is diverse!

• Large trawlers and purse seiners Medium sized coastal vessels Small coastal vessels – the "sjark"

• Develop new concepts

• Multi-fishing gear boats

• More efficient energy use

• Better health and safety for the fishermen

• Keep fish quality

Fishing vessels

• A multitude of fishing gear are in use in Norway and are improved: Trawl – purse seine – long line – gill nets – fish traps

• Selection of wanted – not-wanted fish species and sizes are important – continuous development

• More environmentally friendly fishing gear Trawl that reduces impact on bottom

• Fish finding equipment – steering of fishing gear

• Synergies oil/gas/maritime

• Challenge: Keep the quality of the fish until unloading in harbour

• Increase quality for human food – and increase price of product

• Bleed and gut on board - freeze on board

• Development of technology in collaboration between ship-owner – equipment supplier and R&D institution

Catch handling

• Breeding is an important success factor for salmon farming Fast growth – disease resistance - robust

• Advanced breeding methods – research based

• Norwegian experience with salmon and trout – marine fish and tilapia

• Norwegian companies strong in international markets

• Large losses due to diseases in salmon farming in the 1980-ies and 1990-ies

• Vaccines against bacterial diseases and viral diseases has considerably reduced losses due to diseases

• And have reduced the use of antibiotics to a minimum

• Improve vaccines and develop vaccines against new diseases - use biotechnological methods

• Offer products in the international market

Fish health - vaccines

• Research based development of feed for a number of fish species

• Salmon / trout / cod in Norway

• Pangasius and tilapia - turbot and yellowtail And many more

• Search for new raw materials From agriculture Crustaceans and pelagic fish species Micro and macro algae

Fish feed – new raw materials

• Norway has a well developed supplier industry for aquaculture technology

• Development in close cooperation with R&D institutions

• Cages / moorings – barges - service vessels / boats

• Land based hatcheries

• In addition to salmon, Norwegian researchers and industry have domesticated halibut – cod – cleaner fish and more

• Large sums invested – first feeding and production technology developed

• Traditional live feed like Artemia and rotifers

• Now copepods as first feed give very good results

• Cleaner fish alternative to chemical treatment of parasites

Domesticating new species

• Norway has several suppliers of equipment for fish processing – on board and on land

• Key competence to put together equipment that fits customer's specific needs

• Hardware and software from different suppliers

• Need for tracing – traceability result in extra challenge regarding software interaction

Tailor-made solutions

• The Norwegian supplier industry is diverse

• All sizes of companies and a diverse range of services and products

• Some suppliers are well established in the international market – others are having internationalization as a part of future strategy

• Education and training – in collaboration with R&D institutions and suppliers

• Innovation Norway will be an important link to the Norwegian R&D institutions and suppliers
