SUSTAINABLE AQUACULTURE GERMANY – Get to know your future partners!

AQUA | Montpellier | August 25-29, 2018

FOREWORD

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen, Dear AQUA2018 delegates,

it is my pleasure to introduce you to our network of aquaculture experts from Ger-many (and abroad). In this brochure, you will find the ideal partners for your next business, research project or any other missing link along the aquaculture supply chain. The partners listed in this brochure are just a fraction of the full Competence Network Aquaculture [Kompetenznetzwerk Aquakultur, KNAQ]. If you are looking for even more contacts and/or specialized expertise, please do not hesitate to contact my colleagues and me at booth #68 in the AQUA2018 trade show.

The German aquaculture sector is unique in its diversity, ranging from extensive cultiva-tion systems in ponds and coastlines to intense indoor farming. The annual aquaculture production of fish and mussels accounts for approximately 33,000 tonnes. The main finfish species are common carp and other cyprinids produced in warmwater ponds and rainbow trout and other salmonids produced in flow-through and raceways systems. Other freshwater species encompass sturgeon, catfish, eel, pikeperch and perch. Ma-rine aquaculture in Germany almost exclusively entails the production of blue mussels and oysters in the North Sea and Baltic Sea, as well as a handful of high-tech RAS facilities producing tropical shrimp and marine finfish for high-end markets. Marine and freshwater microalgae and macroalgae are being cultivated by several companies throughout the country.

The aquaculture sector in Germany employs an estimated 1.200 full-time equivalents in primary production, but presumably, another 20.000 producers are active on a part-time basis. The full picture of the German sector only becomes apparent when looking up and down the full supply chain. Large German enterprises are vertically integrated

in international “big names” of the sector, ranging from production of feed and addi-tives to genetics, health and trade. Germany has a vibrant scene of entrepreneurship and start-up support in adjacent fields of agri-food, biotech, maritime and many more. German research organizations and universities are among the top ranking institutions worldwide with outstanding reputation in research, development and innovation.

One has to look at the whole supply chain to understand the true economic value of a sector.

Fish consumption in Germany is almost 1.3 million tonnes per annum alas 14.2 kg per capita. With a population of more than 80 million people and an average monthly salary of around 3000 € per capita, Germany is a major consumer of imported European and international seafood, with an import dependency of more than 80 %. German seafood consumers are known to be very demanding in terms of price and traceability. This provides ample of opportunity for marketing of sustainable aquaculture products and services from Europe and worldwide.

Please enjoy “Sustainable Aquaculture Germany”!

Yours sincerely,

SUSTAINABLE AQUACULTUREFocus Topic of the Kiel Cluster of Excellence “The Future Ocean”

In the Cluster of Excellence „The Future Ocean“ at Kiel University (Germany) there is one focus on the topic of „sustainable aquaculture“. Researchers from the fields of biology, agricultural sciences, philosophy and social sciences have teamed up with experts and operators from politics, industry and associations with the goal of bring-ing the potential and the challenges of sustainable aquaculture to a wide audience, from public, industry and politics.

How can the principles of sustainability be implemented in aquaculture? This question forms the basis of current aquaculture research at Kiel University. The core topic here is the development of sustainable feed, in which fish-based sources of protein and fat (fish meal and fish oil) can be replaced by alternative, mostly plant-based resources. In regard to the topic of animal health and animal welfare, the research focuses mainly on finding methods to determine the well-being of aquatic animals, which, in contrast to that of terrestrial animals, is to a great extent unknown. Improved welfare conditions also lead to disease reduction and lower medication use – a practice which has been applied, in particular, in the EU, Canada or Australia for years (FAO, OIE, WHO, 2006). In addition to this, innovative technologies and rearing systems contribute to implementing systems which allow for ecologically sensitive and sustainable aquaculture.

To strengthen the communication on those topics, we have organized different activities at the AQUA 2018 together with our partners such as KNAQ and GMA, among them:

Presentation of a 3D-printed and Virtual Reality model of a closed recirculation system for sustainable and resource-efficient fish production at booth #68 of the AQUA2018 trade show (Level 0).

Workshop “ Production of penaeid shrimp in Europe – Risks and opportunities”, August 28, 14:00 - 17:20, Room: Sully 2, Level 1

The workshop is aimed at all representatives from industry and science who deal with the potential of the production of shrimps (family Penaidae) in Europe and worldwide. The workshop is mainly planned as an industrial forum, i.e. the focus will be particularly on the current concerns of the producers and the upstream and downstream supply chain.

We wish you all a pleasant stay at AQUA 2018 and we are happy to see everybody at our booth!

Yours

Sabine Haas

COMPETENCE NETWORK AQUACULTURE

The Competence Network Aquaculture (Kompetenznetzwerk Aquakultur, KNAQ) is the supportive stakeholder network for the aquaculture competence center of the federal state Schleswig-Holstein, the most northern federal state of Germany. KNAQ is a project coordinated by the Chamber of Agriculture of the federal state Schleswig-Holstein. It provides structural support and individual consultancy for the development of aquacul-ture in Schleswig-Holstein based on our development strategy.

The competence center is the umbrella under which the leading research and development institutions of Schleswig-Holstein have joined forces to promote scientific excellence and the development of cutting edge technology in the field of aquaculture. As an outcome of this initiative, the Association for Marine Aquaculture (Gesellschaft für Marine Aquakultur, GMA) in Büsum (www.gma-buesum.de) was founded and a pro-fessorship for marine aquaculture was installed at the Kiel University (www.uni-kiel.de).

The Competence Network Aquaculture currently (as of 25.07.2018) combines the exper-tise of 1.009 individuals from all across Germany and abroad. These network members are affiliated with 457 different institutions, specifically 279 companies (mostly SMEs), 75 research organizations and universities and 103 other, e.g. NGOs.

KNAQ promotes economic activities in the aquaculture sector in Schleswig-Holstein, especially by means of attracting new business operations and providing support for existing SMEs. KNAQ focusses on increased production from Recirculation Aquaculture Systems (RAS).

KNAQ is independent and works interdisciplinary, inclusive and stakeholder oriented.Participation in KNAQ is free of charge and open for all professional institutions, entities and individuals.

COMPETENCE CENTER AQUACULTURE

Aquaculture describes the production of aquatic organisms under controlled conditions. Primarily fish, crustaceans, and plants are produced for the food, cosmetic, pharma-ceutical, and fodder industries in varied production systems.Since summer 2007, this area of study has been taught at the Kiel University. Other research organizations in the federal state Schleswig-Holstein have been active in this domain. In late 2007, the Competence Center Aquaculture was inaugurated to combine the regional knowledge and expertise in the field of sustainable aquaculture and to establish national and international networks and to support the establishment of new business activities and research cooperation.In order to support the original research and development activities of the Competence Center members, a state-of-the-art aquaculture research infrastructure was installed in 2009. This research infrastructure was realized as a commercial, non-profit research organization named “Gesellschaft für Marine Aquakultur (GMA) mbH”. The objective of GMA is to attend and support the development of aquaculture, especially with respect to applied research in the field of marine aquaculture.GMA runs their own Aquaculture Research- and Development Facilities (RAS) in Bue-sum, supporting the conduction of both external and internal aquaculture research and development projects. Another core area is the transfer of aquaculture knowledge and technology for both seawater and brackish water.

Main tasks of the GMA are: • Operation of a research and testing facility for

internal as well as external R&D projects• Contract Research and Development• Further Education• Technology Transfer

In the summer semester 2018 the Future Ocean Semestertopic highlights and challenges the question how the principles of sustainability can be implemented in aquaculture.
