Farming of broodstock

Broodstock are adult salmon kept specifically to produce eggs and milt used in hatcheries. These fish form the foundation for the next generation of farmed salmon, and the quality of the broodstock therefore has a direct impact on growth, health, and production outcomes throughout the industry.

Continuous monitoring of broodstock

Securing the quality of future generations

Broodstock are usually kept in sea-based pens until they are about one year old, after which they are transferred to land-based tanks. Used for breeding the next generations of fish, they receive extra care and specialized feed to maintain the highest possible quality. Continuous monitoring of these fish ensures optimal health, safeguarding the quality of future generations.

Sea-phase monitoring

By monitoring broodstock during the sea phase, our system provides continuous insights into their welfare, behaviour, and growth. The accurate, automatic lice-counting feature delivers valuable information about the lice status in the pen, enabling you to take appropriate action when needed.

Land-phase monitoring

During the land phase, our welfare and behavior monitoring can detect stress and health-related issues in broodstock. Close tracking of key environmental parameters also allows for early detection of challenges associated with the transfer from sea to land, enabling you to take action before they escalate. This proactive approach ensures that the broodstock maintains optimal health and quality, safeguarding the performance and resilience of future generations.
