5 Reasons To Use Copper Alloy Nets In Aquaculture
Copper alloy nets helps improve fish harvesting and increase the world’s food supply. Copper netting improves the harvest by collecting healthier fish in larger amounts at a lower cost.
Why is Open Ocean Aquaculture the Future of Sustainable Fish Farming?
Due to the space available and advances in remote accessed and AI technologies, Open Ocean Aquaculture has rapidly become the new frontier in the future growth of marine aquaculture.
CO2 Emissions Reduction for Sustainable Fish Farming
Following the recent COP26 Climate Change Conference it’s a good time to highlight the role Copper Alloy Mesh can play in CO2 Emissions Reduction for Sustainable Fish Farming. A 2015 Life Cycle Assessment was conducted and jointly published by EarthShift and the International Copper Association. It compared a range of farm input and environmental output measures, including the CO2 emissions, of a salmon farm employing 20 Copper Alloy Mesh cages and salmon farms that deployed traditional nylon mesh nets in Chile.
Opportunity to Improve Salmon Farm Performance in 2015 Study
In 2015 a study demonstrated the opportunity to improve salmon farm performance through lower production costs and better environmental outcomes using copper alloy mesh.
