WATER CULTURE
What is Aquaculture?
L’acquacoltura è una forma di produzione agricola, che avviene in acque dolci o salate, finalizzata all’allevamento di pesci, molluschi, crostacei e alghe. Lo scopo principale dell'acquacoltura è quello di rispondere all'aumento della richiesta di fishery products for human consumption. Ad oggi non può più essere considerata come una semplice alternativa alle attività di pesca ma si configura come una vera esigenza produttiva in grado di generare benefici economici e ambientali in termini di risposta al progressivo svuotamento della fauna acquatica. L’allevamento avviene in ambiente marino naturale nel quale l’allevatore “semina” il pesce la cui crescita è garantita mediante l’apporto di mangimi specifici.

"A WORK THAT BEGINS FROM THE SEA"
Aquaculture is a set of procedures that lead to the creation of a production chain. During all stages of production, continuous controls are carried out with the aim of ensuring the highest standards of animal welfare for our fish.

WATER CULTURE
Aquaculture is a form of agricultural production, which takes place in fresh or salt water, aimed at the breeding of fish, molluscs, crustaceans and algae. The main purpose of aquaculture is to meet the increasing demand fori fishery products for human consumption.Today, it can no longer be considered a simple alternative to fishing activities, but rather a real production requirement capable of generating economic and environmental benefits in response to the progressive depletion of aquatic fauna. The farming takes place in a natural marine environment, where the farmer “sows” the fish whose growth is guaranteed through the supply of specific feed.
