Sustainable from north to south - four webinars on aquaculture
Last changed: 25 June 2024
The webinar series "Sustainable from the North to the South" presented different production methods, challenges and opportunities for Swedish aquaculture. The webinars was organised by Landsbygdsnätverket, SLU Aquaculture, SWEMARC and Nationellt Kompetenscentrum för Vattenbruk.
Background
Aquaculture has various conditions in different parts of the country. In northern Sweden, rainbow trout and Arctic charr are farmed in large cages, while in the south, there is mainly land-based farming of, e.g. tilapia and catfish. In our new webinar series, "Sustainable from the North to the South," we look into different production methods, challenges and opportunities for Swedish aquaculture.
