1 aquamanager: Tracking the traceability in the aquaculture sector and value chain

2 Aquaculture and traceability: an essential relationship Traceability provides food safety and security to the aquaculture production. Driving forces: retailers and HORECA request more and more detailed product information. Required for certification. Part of a production control and optimization strategy that helps the company to build competitive advantage. Marketing advantage, increases confidence on the product.

3 Benefits of the aquaculture-traceability relationship Market benefits. Quality and safety management. Reduced cost of production. Product recall.

4 What a successful company must do Track information from each population, from hatchery to harvest. Keep records of all feed, medicaments and other items given to the fish. Make sure this information is not lost when fish are transferred, graded or mixed. Be able to respond to customer questions and issue product certificates. Evaluate suppliers, feed types, feeding and management practices.

5 Is this doable without a system? Difficult to sustain a good traceability monitoring without a system. Many databases may generate confusion and requires good and accurate coordination. Some tracking information might get lost during the data collection.

6 If having no system is a risk to the traceability of the fish production, the solution might be. a system!

7 What a system can do Support full traceability of the produced fish and the production processes, which is a major requirement of the certification bodies. Quality certifications with information gathered during the lifetime of the fish. Immediate and documented reply to complaints

8 Using a system has more benefits! Lower production costs. Improved profitability. Improved operational efficiency. Management support for decision-making. Efficient and effective management of equipment and human resources. Improved product quality through the identification of problems and the effective monitoring of quality characteristics. Optimization of stock levels and purchasing policies

9 What would be an example of system? Allows us to introduce you: aquamanager

10 What is aquamanager? It is a comprehensive, integrated fish farming software for optimizing the entire production process, reduce costs and improve the management of a company. It is a complete fish farming software that supports all stages of fish production, from hatchery up to fish growth. aquamanager provides unprecedented visibility and control over the full range variables driving the success of the production process cost, quality, volume, scheduling and profitability as they occur.

11 What is aquamanager? aquamanager covers the entire fish production all over the different stages through the three different aquamanager modules: Hatchery Nursery Grow Out The interaction of all three modules increase the traceability of the fish production up to a maximum level.

12 aquamanager: Integrated management tool Feeding Control no mistakes Micro management Empowerment of people The mentality changes Mobiles Data Mining Evaluate and optimize practices, people, suppliers, feed, etc. Improve growth models Identify patterns and trends Real time environment monitoring Immediate reaction to problems Data loggers Aqua Manager Production control, planning, cost accounting Performance evaluation and benchmarking

13 Production data = an unknown friend aquamanager allows you to understand what is happening, why is happening and as is happening during the fish production process

14 In-depth analysis of your data through aquamanager = Cost Reduction Systems like aquamanager provide tools that: Help you to continuously evaluate performance. Make possible to visualize and analyze the data, allowing you to prevent problems before the escalate. This is very difficult to do it consistently through a manual process. Help you to optimize the feeding strategy based on the specific conditions of your farm. Allow you to understand what is happening and take corrective actions. Without a good system, this information comes too late.

15 In-depth analysis of your data through aquamanager = Cost Reduction Transform data into knowledge, and use this knowledge to improve efficiency and increase profitability. Provide better and perfect view of the life to date fish behavior. Result to substantial improvement of the growth model, which will have a great impact on predictions, business plan, efficiency, etc. By knowing how all those parameters affect the production, you will be able to make accurate estimations of the growth of the fish.

16 In-depth analysis of your data through aquamanager = Cost Reduction This minimizes the uncertainty and moreover it will contribute to more accurate production and financial plans.
