Solutions employ various types of sensors to evaluate fish behavior, and consequently hunger level, to dial in the right amount of feeds and to turn the feeders off when the fish are sated. Here are a number of articles that dig into the technology and how fish and shrimp production have benefitted.

A Wageningen University-led study of how to reduce risks and improve environmental performance among small aquaculture operations also aimed to reduce the incidence of disease, via four new AIPs at shrimp farms in Indonesia and in the Thai provinces of Surat Thani and Chumphon. *Click here to learn more <http://GAA.informz.net/z/cjUucD9taT05OTE0OTU2JnA9MSZ1PTExNDc0MTIzMDYmbGk9ODQ5NzgxOTE/index.html>* . <http://GAA.informz.net/z/cmVkMy5hc3A_YWg9MjgwODM1JnU9MTE0NzQxMjMwNg/index.html> Global Aquaculture Alliance 85 New Hampshire Avenue, Suite 200 Portsmouth, NH 03801 603-317-5000 *Unsubscribe* <http://GAA.informz.net/z/cjUucD9taT05OTE0OTU2JnU9MTE0NzQxMjMwNiZsaT04NDk3ODE5MyZsPWh0dHA6Ly9HQUEuaW5mb3Jtei5uZXQvR0FBL3BhZ2VzL2RlZmF1bHRfdW5zdWJzY3JpYmU_X3pzPW1nbE1qMXxfem1pPVVMbnE/index.html> *Subscribe* <http://GAA.informz.net/z/cjUucD9taT05OTE0OTU2JnU9MTE0NzQxMjMwNiZsaT04NDk3ODE5NSZsPWh0dHA6Ly9HQUEuaW5mb3Jtei5uZXQvR0FBL3BhZ2VzL3N1YnNjcmliZV9BTEw_X3pzPW1nbE1qMXxfem1pPVVMbnE/index.html> [image: facebook] <http://GAA.informz.net/z/cjUucD9taT05OTE0OTU2JnA9MSZ1PTExNDc0MTIzMDYmbGk9ODQ5NzgxOTc/index.html> [image: twitter] <http://GAA.informz.net/z/cjUucD9taT05OTE0OTU2JnA9MSZ1PTExNDc0MTIzMDYmbGk9ODQ5NzgxOTk/index.html> [image: linkedin] <http://GAA.informz.net/z/cjUucD9taT05OTE0OTU2JnA9MSZ1PTExNDc0MTIzMDYmbGk9ODQ5NzgyMDA/index.html> [image: youtube] <http://GAA.informz.net/z/cjUucD9taT05OTE0OTU2JnA9MSZ1PTExNDc0MTIzMDYmbGk9ODQ5NzgyMDI/index.html> [image: Instagram] <http://GAA.informz.net/z/cjUucD9taT05OTE0OTU2JnA9MSZ1PTExNDc0MTIzMDYmbGk9ODQ5NzgyMDQ/index.html> Powered by Higher Logic <http://GAA.informz.net/z/cjUucD9taT05OTE0OTU2JnA9MSZ1PTExNDc0MTIzMDYmbGk9ODQ5NzgyMDY/index.html> -- *Casammak Aquaculture Consultancy * *SARNISSA African Aquaculture Network * *Follow my daily updated international Facebook sites (news, publications, videos, employment, funding, investment and other) for:* *Casammak Aquaculture <https://5fca2b635abdf.site123.me/> * *Sustainable Aquaculture Stirling <https://www.facebook.com/SustainableAquacultureStirling/>* *SARNISSA African Aquaculture Network * <https://www.facebook.com/sarnissaafrica?ref=hl> *Aquaculture Enterprise Malawi* <https://www.facebook.com/pages/Aquaculture-Enterprise-Malawi/572805602862378?fref=nf> *SEAT Sustaining Ethical Aquaculture Trade Asia (SEAT) * <https://www.facebook.com/SEATGlobal?ref=hl> * See also Sustainable Aquaculture Group Stirling's activities and projects: * *http://www.susaquastirling.net/* <http://www.susaquastirling.net/>
