Online • By European Aquaculture Society
Through its involvement in the EU Horizon Europe INNOAQUA project, and in partnership with the Microalgae-Biota Technology and Innovation Research (ALBIC), Universiti Putra Malaysia,Institute of Climate Adaptation and Marine Biotechnology (ICAMB), Universiti Malaysia Terengganu (UMT), the EuropeanSociety (EAS) is pleased to present this event on combined plant and animalproduction technologies. This short, focussed event will showcase examples of production systems at pilot or near full scale production from Europe and SE Asia and will be followed by a panel discussion and audience Q&A that will discuss concept approaches, pilot successes and upscaling issues. Its principal objective is to share experience with experts on systems, methods, species, approaches and target end-products – paving the way for future cooperation and partnership. It is the first of two events – the second focusing more on algal extracts and their potential applications. Introduction By the moderators: Dorinde Kleinegris (NORCE, Norway) and Natrah Ikhsan (ICAMB UMT, Malaysia) Case study presentation - Montakan Tamtin (CoastalResearch and Development Division, Department of Fisheries, Thailand). “Overview of seaweed cultivation and production in Thailand”. - Rui Perreira (A4F, Portugal). “INNOAQUA land-based IMTA pilot in Portugal, with sole & macroalgae”. - Nguyen Nhut (Research Institute forNo. 2 (RIA2), Vietnam). “Developing Intensive White Shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) Culture through IMTA-RAS Technology for Climate Change Adaptation and a Circular Economy Approach.” - Pia Steinrücken (NORCE, Norway). “INNOAQUA: Land based IMTA – integrating salmon and microalgae cultivation at pilot scale”. - Wahidatul Husna (Borneo Marine Research Institute, Universiti Malaysia Sabah,Malaysia). “Integrating High-Value Sea Urchins and Tropical Seaweeds into Traditional Finfish Farming through Sea-based IMTA in Malaysia”. - Pauline O’Donohoe (Marine Institute, Ireland). “ASTRAL - IMTA Species of the Future.” Panel Panel discussion and open Q&A that will discuss concept approaches, pilot successes and upscaling issues.
