FLO-biosec
The overall goal of the project is to develop knowledge that is important for the further development of floating closed‑containment (FLO) systems for salmonid aquaculture in Norway.
Period
2026 - 2028
Funded by
FHF - Norwegian Seafood Research Fund
LetThereBeLight
Smolt are often reared under continuous light and fed an energy-rich diet before being transferred to the sea. In this project, we aim to improve the light regime and feed to address challenges related to growth, sexual maturation, and fat accumulation in large smolt reared in closed aquaculture systems.
2026 - 2026
Nofima
TOP-Zinc
In this project we will study innovative methods in feed technology to improve zinc availability in salmon feeds.
2025 - 2028
SelectOrganic
SelectOrganic aims to contribute to the development of selection programs for organic aquaculture that respect high standards of fish welfare.
2025 - 2029
Horizon Europe (EU)
OptiBoost
Fishmeal is an excellent feed ingredient, but how can it be producd with even higher quality for the health, quality and welfare of salmon?
Norwegian Seafood Research Fund - FHF
SIS CELLCRISP
This project aims to explore the use of cell lines and primary cells, combined with gene editing to facilitate aquaculture research.
2025 - 2027
SIS Frontiers
Diseases and disorders affecting the heart, skin, and gills are major challenges to salmon health and welfare. In SIS Frontiers, we will explore new frontiers in understanding the functions of these organs, including newly studied mucosal organs, to connect current scenarios with biological insights.
SIS Next-Level-Welfare
The project aims to advance aquaculture through digital innovation by developing a robust ML and IT infrastructure, diversifying digital tool applications, refining behavioural analysis models, conducting a SWOT analysis, and disseminating knowledge through publications and guidelines.
VaxiCod
Atlantic cod farming is making a comeback and needs support to improve disease resistance.
2024 - 2026
MABIT
IllumiAkva
In IllumiAkva, we gather knowledge about the use of light in aquaculture, from the earliest life stages to harvest-ready fish.
2024 - 2028
Chicken meal for salmon
The aim of this project is to facilitate increased utilisation of chicken residues in feed for salmon.
2024 - 2027
Norwegian Seafood Research Fund (FHF)
EpiBrood
The EpiBrood project will investigate whether different industry broodstock rearing environments and maturation practices used by breeding and multiplier companies in Norway have significant intergenerational (parent-offspring) impacts on phenotypes (e.g. growth) of production fish, whether epigenetic programming is involved and what preventions and treatments might mitigate such effects.
FHF – Norwegian Seafood Research Fund.
ValueSøl
The ValueSøl project aims to improve the efficiency for dulce/søl (Palmaria palmata) sporeling production, to promote the production of dulce for human consumption with low carbon footprint and to evaluate dulce cultivation as a mitigating solution for aquaculture effluents discharged to the environment.
Regionale forskningsfond ARKTIS (RFF)
GillHealthAct
Gill health problems remain the top health and welfare-related issue in Norwegian Atlantic salmon aquaculture. The GillHealthAct project responds to this challenge by documenting best practices for prevention and treatment that ensure optimal gill health in farmed salmon.
2023 - 2026
FHF – Norwegian Seafood Research Fund
SalmoE2
In SalmoE2, we aim to test whether ethyl ester (EE) oil can be used as a safe source of nutritionally beneficial fatty acids in the feed for salmon and trout.
2023 - 2025
SALMOCODE
SALMOCODE will tackle the problems of abnormal organ development by detecting its onset as early as possible, using leading edge technology and concepts from genomics and developmental biology. These diagnostics will be used to formulate evidence-based best practices for preventing the appearance of these abnormalities.
SynoProtein
In SynoProtein the aim is to develop and demonstrate a carbon-negative process that converts residues from sawmills into single-cell proteins for fish feed, as well as producing biochar for animal feed.
2023 - 2028
In the project titled 'Urea in Farmed Salmon Feed for Enhanced Fish Welfare,' our aim is to explore the potential benefits of incorporating urea as an additive into farmed salmon feed.
