Participants at the World Aquaculture Conference will hear from
key note speaker Dr Alex Obach, Managing Director of the Skretting Aquaculture
Research Centre, on how fish and shrimp nutrition and health studies are
playing a major role in improving the sustainability and productivity of
aquaculture production around the world.
Dr Obach will present in the Commercial Fish Health session
discussing in detail how science and the use of clinical nutrition has allowed
feed manufacturers to develop nutritional strategies and functional feeds that
are having a positive impact on not only productivity, but also on the health
of farmed fish and shrimp species.
The Commercial Fish Health session will also include
presentations from other world experts relating to best aquaculture practices,
disease prevention and control measures and integrated management schemes for
different species and culture systems.
The Shrimp Nutrition session will provide a second opportunity
to hear from Dr Orbach, this time about some of the major challenges faced by
today’s shrimp farming industry. Dr Obach will use the example of how recent developments
in nutrition can contribute to improved water quality, health status and
optimised performance for shrimp farming operations.
If you are interested in attending these sessions and hearing Dr.
Alex Obach present on the use of functional feeds to improve the health status
in fish and on the development of efficient and sustainable shrimp feeds then
