Functions - technical principles

1. Creation of a functioning ecosystem.
2. Separation of the system components.
3. Orientation to the existing environmental conditions.
4. Prevention of interference.
5. Prevention of stress for the animals.
6. Creation of optimal feeding and feed quality.
7. Reduction of human disturbance.
8. Complete technical and veterinary supervision. (Parameters and vitality)
9. Creation of technical conditions for optimal environmental conditions.
10. Complete processing and packaging (including consumer-ready) on site.
11. Optimal product quality and hygiene.
12. Reduction of technical and construction costs to the required minimum.
13. Reduce operating costs to a minimum.
14. No environmental impact.

 

Value and quality chain

Waterfruits systems have a rated annual production, based on the respective initial investment of at least 2,500 metric tonnes of live weight. The plant-specific capacities of individual components and areas ranging up to 8,000 tons. The modular design allows the increase of capacity. A stand-alone system requires a land area (agriculture) of approximately 200,000 sqm, and a small business share (food processing, food production, administration).

1. Own brood (optimal conditions, accustomed to the food, no transportation losses, availability)
2. Own feed production (own mixtures, no pollutants, only commodity dependence)
3. Gentle breeding (see: "stress - faktor of benefit")
4. Effective intensive animal husbandry (below the recommended maximums but above territorial behavior)
5.Passive sorting during rearing (1/2/4/8 - species-dependent)
6. Conditioning
7. Effective killing
8. Direct slaughter, processing, packaging and storage, in a course on site.
9. All prerequisites for a broad, market-driven product portfolio
10. Monitoring of all systems and production components (when, what, how much)

Stress - factor of benefit

Stress in fish causes a reduced resistance to diseases, reduced growth, lower fillet firmness, different product quality.


Stress factors are:

1. water quality

2. low oxygene supply

3. impact of germs

4. incorrect stocking density

5. removal from the water

6. feeding stress

7. different fish in the environment

8. predators

9. other species in the environment

10. different scales in the environment

11. change of temperature

12. change of pH-value

13. algue

14. loss of feed (caging)

15. any sudden change

16. pollution

 

 

All stress factors are avoided in the waterfruits system.
