Species Workshops for farmers and stakeholders
Full-day workshops on “Know-how Transfer” of the state-of-the-art of the aquaculture for each of the six species of DIVERSIFY are planned for 2018. These workshops will consist of presentations on selected aspects (e.g., reproduction and spawning induction, larval rearing an grow out, nutrition, health, final product diversification and quality, socioeconomic issues and marketing, etc.), given by DIVERSIFY Partners, but also from any authorities in the species (European or world-wide depending on the species), whose work was not part of the project.
The workshops are targeted for Aquaculturists (mainly), but also European aquaculture support companies (feed, pharmaceutical, equipment, engineering, etc.), researchers and educators, government organizations and other important institutions will be invited to attend these meetings. The seminars will be organized by the Species Leaders of DIVERSIFY in countries where the particular species are cultured --or has the potential to be cultured -- and/or is located centrally in a region with interested aquaculture operations. One seminar will be organized for each of the selected species.
See below, as well as the specific species pages within this site for more information.

The wreckfish Knowledge-transfer Workshop will be held in Vigo, Spain on 19-20 July 2018. It will be hosted by Dr Blanca Alvarez (IEO, Spain). The presentations will include results on reproduction, broodstock nutrition and larval rearing from work carried out within DIVERSIFY. It will also include work in the congener "hapuku" from New Zealand, presented from researchers of the National Institute of Water and Atmosphere (NIWA), New Zealand. The 2-day workshop will include also a site visit to a farm involved in wreck fish research and the Aquarium Finisterrae of A Coruna, where some of the research on reproduction in DIVERSIFY has taken place (Day 2).

The Atlantic halibut Knowledge-transfer Workshop will be held in Hjelmeland Spa, Ryfylke, Norway on 11-12 September 2018. It will be hosted by Dr Birgitta Norberg (IMR, Norway) and Stirling White Halibut (Norway). The presentations will include results from research task included in DIVERSIFY, such as broodstock management, larval rearing, nutrition, health, commercial production and ingrowing systems and marketing. The 2-day workshop will include also a site visit to the Atlantic halibut hatchery of Stirling White Halibut and some grow out sites. The final program will be published soon.
