FEEDFIRST

 

The FEEDFIRST project aims to develop an integrated technological solution for a successful introduction of inert microdiets at the onset of exogenous feeding of fish larvae reared in aquaculture. This project is led by Sparos in collaboration with Riasearch, the Faculty of Engineering of the Polytechnic Institute of Porto, and the Institute for Systems and Computer Engineering, Technology and Science of Porto.

​

Riasearch’s role is to develop hydraulic improvements in rearing tanks that improve larval feeding.
