Land-based Aquaculture

Assistance, training and follow-up of suppliers and producers in land-based farming of salmon and trout.

Good biosecurity in land-based farming is about preventive measures and strategies to protect both the fish and the environment against disease outbreaks and other threats that can affect fish health and the environment.

Biosecurity includes all measures needed to prevent disease outbreaks and to limit any damage that may occur and together contribute to reducing the risk of disease outbreaks and creating a healthy and sustainable fish production that takes care of both the fish, the people and the environment.

Over a long period of time, Aquatiq has acquired expertise in hygienic design, microbiology and training. Therefore, we can assist you who invest in new facilities, or deliver this. Aquatiq can assist with generation cleaning, major cleaning and total reset. We can also assist with advice when preparing biosecurity plans, possibly revising an existing plan.

Your advisor

We can assist with optimizing facilities that are built with a focus on hygienic design and microbiological control. Normally, this will involve points such as; choice of materials and surfaces, placement of equipment and devices, production flow, etc.

If you have been diagnosed with an illness in an existing facility, we can assist you in the process to reset the facility. Together with you and our Pathogen Management team, we will be able to take the right measures to eliminate the threat.

Our goals in such situations are to:

  • Detect/locate the problem quickly.
  • Eliminate the problem, if RAS – reset as most often the option.
  • Ensure continuous safe production.

Such cases are not a routine for breeders, and for that reason few have experience in dealing with such a situation. Therefore, we will assist to ensure an optimal total reset, and training of employees to ensure production in addition to preventing new cases.
