Learning outcomes
|
The aim of the subject is to provide students with innovative theoretical and practical knowledge and skills leading to effective species diversification of freshwater aquaculture. Students will gain theoretical and practical experience concerning the optimization of each aquaculture production system, including the implementation of effective species-specific reproduction, nutrition, domestication process and the basics of intensive breeding of the most economically important and ornamental coldwater, subtropical and tropical fish species. The subject will explain the principle of sustainable and effective aquaculture of the fish species, including the use of various biotechnological techniques to streamline their culture and increase profitable and continuous production of market fish of each species.
Graduates of this course will be able to practicaly use reproduction and aquaculture techniques during spawning and aquaculture of supplemental fish species in RAS or ponds. The aim of this subject is increase diversification of European aquaculture in future.
