How to monitor water in salmon farms to reduce environmental impact.

Salmon Farm Water Monitoring

How do you monitor water quality in salmon farms for better farm management and reduced environmental impact?

Salmon farms will play an increasing role in future food production.

Due to the huge pressure placed on the environment by humans for increased food production, aquaculture, and in particular salmon farms already play a key role in the future of where our food comes from. Salmon farming is a growing worldwide industry that is creating new jobs and exports. It also helps to reduce the fishing pressure on wild food stocks. Both marine and freshwater salmon farming rely heavily on water quality to achieve higher yields and maximise efficiencies.

monitoring of water quality can reduce environmental impact

Continuous monitoring of water quality can reduce environmental impact.

Monitoring of water quality (commonly salinity, temperature and dissolved oxygen) plays a major role in salmon farming, by minimising the environmental impact on fragile water environments. Adroit water monitoring solutions are designed and built to withstand New Zealand’s diverse conditions. The highly accurate and factory calibrated sensors are connected to Libelium controllers. Live data is transferred to the Adroit platform, which hosts an interactive user dashboard. The solution monitors water parameters in real-time, allowing management to optimise production conditions in salmon farms. The rich data can aid decision making to help improve yield, quality of product, and reduce the impact on aquatic environments by reducing resource wastage.

Adroit aquaculture solutions are suitable for:
