The $300 I 1000 One Thousand Innovation To Farm Salmon Inwards The Pump Of The Ocean

From Bloomberg, July 31:

Three miles off Norway’s rugged coast, 1.5 1 yard m salmon swim inwards a 220-foot-high, football-field-long majority of floating mesh-wire frames as well as nets. This is Ocean Farm 1, the world’s offset deep-sea aquaculture project, designed past times leading salmon farmer SalMar ASA. The companionship paid China Shipbuilding Industry Corp. $300 1 yard m upfront for half dozen facilities that offering to a greater extent than infinite than conventional shoreline farms (large nets inwards sheltered waters) spell diffusing fish waste, allowing them to hold out packed inwards tighter.

How It Works
Oxygen sensors as well as high-definition cameras monitor the salmon for, alongside other things, increase as well as signs of illness. Midway through Ocean Farm 1’s yearlong case run, SalMar says it’s seen rigid increase as well as depression mortality rates.

Sixteen movable, submerged valves disperse nutrient at laid upward times as well as let fish to alive at depths of upward to 180 feet, rather than clustering them almost the surface, every bit inwards other farms.

Next Steps 
SalMar plans to harvest the farm’s offset generation of salmon inwards the instant one-half of the yr as well as says that if the evolution stage is successful, it’ll hold out possible to flora fish farming anywhere inwards the opened upward sea....MORE
