| Goal and objectives of the project | - Completing the biofloc technology process for brackish water tilapia farming.
- Successfully applied biofloc technology to produce tilapia on a commodity scale |
| Main results | - Theoretical results:
01 useful solution granted a patent
01 useful solution is accepted
Won third prize in Hai Phong City Technical Innovation Contest
01 technical guidebook was published in September 2023
01 scientific paper published in the Viet Nam Journal of Agriculture and Rural Development, No 12 (2022) , pages 71 -83
05 technical staff of the coordinating unit have been trained to master and master technology so they can proactively expand production;
20 tilapia farmers have received technical training to apply technology to production to improve production efficiency.
- Applied results:
The technical process of raising tilapia using biofloc technology in a brackish water environment has been applied to implement this project, creating 335,582 tilapia fry and 71,200 kg of commercial tilapia. |
| Novelty and actuality and scientific meaningfulness of the results | When applying the project's technological process to cultured fish, fish use biofloc granules as a food source to help reduce Feed Conversion Ratio (FCR), increase feed efficiency, and increase fish productivity, reducing production costs, reducing product prices, commercial tilapia ensures food hygiene and safety quality, increases selling prices, and increases profits compared to currently tilapia culture technology. |
| Products of the project | - Scientific papers in referred journals (list): The effect of stocking density on growth and survival of tilapia fry reared in biofloc technology system in brackish water. Viet Nam Journal of Agriculture and Rural Development, No 12 (2022) , pages 71 -83 - Patents (list): Process of cultured tilapia using biofloc technology in brackish water (patent no. 3008 according to Decision No. 18263w/QD-SHTT dated October 21, 2022). Process of rearing tilapia fry in brackish water by biofloc technology (application accepted, Decision No. 19575w/QD-SHTT dated April 12, 2023, number 2-2023-00061 - Technological products (describe in details: technical characteristics, place): Third Prize of Hai Phong City Technical Innovation Contest - Other products (if applicable): Tilapia fry and commercial tilapia products are processed by the unit coordinating the project implementation |
| Recommendations | Businesses and households engaged in aquaculture need to culture tilapia in brackish water |
