Basic Prerequisite1 Infrastructure Transportation Electricity Supply of materials
Basic Prerequisite2 Accessibility of Value Chains Broodstock Fingerling supply Grow-out Processing
Basic Prerequisite3 Penetrable Market Market segment & size Price ranges Types of products Shelf time etc.
Choice of target species Environmental conditions: No matter if you can overcome or not Market accessibility & expandability Ways of building value chains for produ ction

Advanced R&D-hardware Recirculating Aquacuture Sytems (RAS) for inland tank farms Cages and feeding systems Vaccination machines Processing plants Modern comprehensive facilities
GSP 사업 1 단계중간평가 RAS (land based fish farm) Traditional flow through (FT) From AquaOptima Large inlet of new water Small inlet of new water Fish tank Recirculating Aquaculture System (RAS) Fish tank Treatment Large outlet of water Small outlet of water Healthy food production with minimal use of water Control of the rearing environment Independent of the surrounding environment Minimal water discharge and collection of waste for further utilisation
General features of a RAS unit GSP 사업 1 단계중간평가 RAS unit - Needs big data for optimal conditions - Requires ICT platforms Control room

Various depth of water Sea water temp. :10-23 o C Salinity: 28-35ppt Good water currents Oceanic events : Cold water surge, red tides, Typhoon, etc.
Over 60 fish species being farmed Production of about 100K tones Mainly salt water species Much more for shellfish and sea plants
Major farming species
For olive flounders Over 30 years experiences developed world best flounder farming know-how Control complete farming cycle Production of over 40k However, demanding more strategic farming schemes. Disease control Water treatments Feed development
Strong Business Background Good environments Steady consumption rate in domestic market Easy accessibility to big markets
Expandable Market Various market segments Relatively good returns Good shelf time due to short distribution time
Scientific management Marketing strategy Water treatment and Disease control Feed developments
Ways in building integrated value chains Broodstock Fingerling supply Growout Processing marketing
To be sustainable, aquaculture must be based on scientific data and solutions. the value chains for production need to be well integrated. To explore the potential in Korean aquaculture, Norwegian techniques and know-how could be great helpful. collaborations in the fields of water treatments, feed developments, and of disease controls should be the first priority.
