Adisseo has announced its second edition of the Aqu@Event by Adisseo to be organised on November 23 under the theme “The New Blue is Greenâ€. This on-line event, initiated in March, offers an attractive conference program combined with a user’s friendly, virtual booth experience.
“What is the market outlook on novel proteins such as insect protein, what to expect from alternative protein sources in shrimp feed formulation, can feed additives relieve the carbon footprint of aquaculture production, can nutritionists anticipate on thermal stress in view of global warming, what is the significance of a better understanding of the microbiome for the farmer? We have invited five experts to share their views on these hot topics during a sharp 3h-webinarâ€, says Dr. Peter Coutteau, BU Director Aquaculture at Adisseo.
“Challenging times are here to stay and we need novel technologies and insights for aquaculture producers to enhance their sustainability and economic resilience. All talks will be subtitled and followed by a live panel discussion with the speakers, during which the audience will be able to ask questions to the speakers. At the virtual booth, we will have information kiosks around hot topics in aquaculture nutrition and health. Hot topics covered include fish health, white faeces syndrome in shrimp, feed cost efficiency, digestive performance and farm care. At every kiosk, participants can pick up some information or chat with one of our aqua experts.â€
The program will start at CET 9.00 (3.00pm Bangkok time) and will include presentations on
