Our Advanced Nutrition business area, INVE partnered with the Singapore Food Agency (“SFA”) to develop cutting-edge hatchery technologies tailored for tropical marine species and environments. Together, we have launched a Hatchery Technology Centre at SFA’s Marine Aquaculture Centre (“MAC”). This collaboration combines SFA’s expertise in hatchery design and production for tropical marine species with our in-depth knowledge of specialised fish nutrition for early development stages, including patented technologies for live feeds, while also sharing practical field expertise to meet on-site needs. Our goal is to support and drive the growth of the aquaculture industry in Singapore and Southeast Asia.
The partnership also integrates insights from Mediterranean and tropical fish larvae culture, drawing on resources from the INVE Aquaculture Research Centre (“IARC”) in Italy.
We have generated valuable data to share with farmers, experts and partners, signalling the potential for breakthrough innovations in tropical aquaculture such as Asian seabass and other species. These efforts aim to boost survival rates and enhance productivity for farmers across the region.
In FY24 we conducted workshops, coordinated by Dr Kim Young Chul, R&D Trial Manager, to share knowledge and expertise with research institutions, universities and producers in the wider region, further supporting industry advancement.
“Through collaboration, dedication and innovation, we are not just dreaming of a better future for aquaculture. We are actively building it.”
