BIOMARINE

This BIOMARINE project involves the creation of a pond for reproductive adult fish and a hatchery which enables the control of an outstanding quality of shoals of fish and the introduction of total traceability.

This project was approved in March 2007

BIOMARINE is striving to become the leading French hatchery for marine fish biological fries. This hatchery will be the only one in France able to produce three kinds of fish species: sea bass, gilt-head bream and shade fish.

In parallel, BIOMARINE will continue R & D efforts initiated by Cannes Aquaculture in partnership with Ifremer (French Research Institute for Exploitation of the Sea) concerning new species: fiches-fish, umbrine and cobias.

The main innovation of this project is the creation of the missing link in organic aquaculture, the hatchery pond, for which specifications have not yet been determined.
