EU Aquaculture Assistance Mechanism

Demonstration project of a smart technology for monitoring the delivery of feed for a sustainable aquaculture (DEMO-BLUESMARTFEED)

Description

DEMO-BLUESMARTFEED was a three-year project funded by the European Maritime and Fisheries Fund (EMFF), aimed at validating the ‘Smart System for Feeding Control’ (SICA)in order to speed up its market uptake.

Tangible results: SICA is a smart technology for monitoring the delivery of feed for a sustainable aquaculture. The project verified, improved, and validated the SICA technology in real operational conditions.

Application/relevance: The SICA technology allows fish farmers to minimise wasted non-eaten feed, therefore reducing their operational costs, as well as the environmental impact of their aquaculture activities.
