Global Aquaculture Alliance’s seventh annual Global Aquaculture Innovation Award has extended its application deadline to July 15.
Three finalists will be invited to GAA’s GOAL 2019 conference in Chennai, India, from October 21 - 24 to present their innovations, with the audience selecting the winner. The finalists will also be featured in GAA’s Global Aquaculture Advocate.
Examples of aquaculture innovations are technologies that mitigate the occurrence of animal diseases or parasites, or that reduce or eliminate the use of antibiotics to treat animals; technologies that improve production efficiencies at the hatchery or farm levels while mitigating environmental impact; advances in offshore or land-based recirculation technologies; novel feed ingredients; reductions in carbon footprint through improved energy efficiency or regeneration; and social programs designed to improve living and working conditions at the farm or processing levels.
