Climate smart farming of tilapia
Type: Report
The In-Pond Raceway System (IPRS) is the culture system that recycle water within the pond with no need to exchange water during culture season. The system require establishing a cell inside ponds and creating water current ...
Heavy metals concentrations in water and fish of some Egyptian lakes and fish ponds
Type: Journal Article
Five heavy metals namely, cadmium, copper, iron, lead, and zinc were determined in water and fish samples obtained from three different lakes and fishponds in Egypt over nine months to assess pollution with those toxic ...
Measuring impact of innovations on aquaculture system performance
Type: Brief
A consistent approach to benchmarking and performance assessments enables standard evaluations of aquaculture systems and the benefits associated with uptake of research and innovation, which is key to sound research, ...
Effect of nitrogen fertilizer source on water quality and performance of two tilapia species
Type: Journal Article
The purpose of the present study was to compare the effect of urea and calcium nitrate (c. nitrate) as nitrogen fertilizer sources with mono superphosphate (msp) on water quality and the performance of two species of tilapia ...
Estimates of phenotypic and genetic parameters for carcass traits in Nile Tilapia selected for fast growth in low-input conditions
Type: Other
Nile tilapia is sold as either un-gutted or gutted whole carcasses, or as depending on geographical location. In whichever state the is sold, meat yield is an important consideration. Although carcass traits are of economic ...
Pathological studies on encysted metacercariae infections among some freshwater fish in Egyptian aquaculture
Type: Conference Paper
Fish may harbor pathogens especially parasitic diseases which interfere with the aquaculture production and could consitiute a zoonotic importance, especially in developing countries. In this study, 200 freshwater fishes ...
Colorimetric assay for the in vitro evaluation of Saprolegniabiofilm inhibitors
Type: Journal Article
Oomycete infections caused by Saprolegnia species represent an escalating problem in sustainable aquaculture development. This could be attributed to the ban of Malachite green and other carcinogenic agents aims at killing ...
Use of alternative sources for enhancing production in Egyptian fish farms
Type: Thesis
The present study was designed to investigate the advantages and disadvantages of using different organic fertilizers on fish safety and yield and also to investigate the production performance of mixed organic and inorganic ...
Aquaculture genetics research in Egypt
Type: Conference Paper
Fish production in Egypt has significantly increased over the last few years reaching 546 000 t in 1998 compared to 306 000 t in 1988. The contribution of aquaculture in the overall fish production has increased as well ...
Why antimicrobial resistance in aquaculture systems matters for the One Health approach
Type: Poster
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) occurs when bacteria change and become resistant to antibiotics used to treat the infections they cause. The interconnected nature of agri-food systems means that AMR can spread, posing a ...
