Day 3: Part 2 Entrepreneurs from eFishery developed new and improved feeding technologies that enables farmers to work more efficiently. eFishery collaborates with multiple stakeholders to aggregate data and refine management techniques #innovation eFishery Gibran Huzaifah

Kicking off the joint seminar with AFI and the Bandung Institute of Science and Technology discussing Sustainable Aquatic Systems! Follow the link to join us online! #networking #research SITH ITB Zoom Meeting itb-ac-id.zoom.us/j/96974410522?… Meeting ID: 969 7441 0522 Passcode: 160674

An interesting and important talk from Dr. Angga Dwiartama on food waste and the value chain in the aquaculture sector. By addressing questions concerning the complexity of the value chain we need to discuss making aquaculture more sustainable #foodwaste #sutainable SITH ITB

Julie Ekasari gave a talk concerning biofloc-based tilapia production. Biofloc encourages healthy aquaculture systems and acts a more efficient food source compared to other feed. This makes the system more productive and improves sustainability #fishfeed #production SITH ITB

Teddy Pieter discussed how to build sustainable aquaculture with genetically modified shrimp. These shrimp have increased growth and better tolerances to the environment. Genetics informs sustainable breeding for higher productivity with fewer resources SITH ITB Hendrix Genetics

Haniswita and Geert Wiegertjes present their research on trained immunity in fish. By exposing animals to a stimulus they 'train' the innate immune system. After training, immune cells have a higher metabolism and a more effective immune response. #immunity #adaptation SITH ITB

An interesting talk from Magdalena Lenny Situmorang discussing modulation of bacterial communities in shrimp through feed supplementation. This research looks into different supplements to control bacterial growth and promote fish health #fishhealth #supplements SITH ITB

Tom Brandon presents research on a novel model for fish intestinal health. Organoids are microscopic organs and can replace animal experiments. He uses carp intestinal organoids to study underlying mechanisms of immune system responses to stimuli #immunity #organiods SITH ITB

The final talk of the day! Eleanor Greenway and Timo Stauedle presented research on skate biology with fisheries management. The aim is to bridge knowledge gaps of these data limited species and improve fisheries management #fisheries #skatesandrays Eleanor Greenway SITH ITB

Indonesia is the 2nd largest producer of marine products in the world. Aruna supports local fishermen educating them on sustainable fishing practices while buying their fish and exporting it locally and to multiple international markets #education #international Aruna Indonesia

Last night we landed in Lombok and now we're at the National Research and Innovation (BRIN) to co-host the symposium on aquaculture and fisheries: connecting Dutch and Indonesian expertise in aquatic research and industry #education #collaboration BRIN Indonesia

Eliza presented her research on the impact of feed composition on waste production and aquaculture system performance. Her findings indicate that sustainability of aquafeed ingredients should be examined from both a fish and system perspective #aquaculture #fish BRIN Indonesia

De Heus was represented today by Suprapto. He presented their shrimp farming strategy where they apply tailored SOPs and use synbiotics as part of their strategy to improve shrimp health and production in Indonesia #shrimp #health BRIN Indonesia

Ari Setiardhi represented research from Hendrix Genetics. Their research concerns modulation of bacterial communities in shrimp through feed supplementation. Using supplements can control bacterial growth and promote shrimp health #shrimp BRIN Indonesia Hendrix Genetics

Professor Dwi Listyo Rahayu shares her research on exploring Indonesia's marine biodiversity. During her excursions she discovers new species not yet known to science and describes them with international collaborations! #discovery #exploration #newtoscience BRIN Indonesia

Devi Dwiyanti Suryono talked to us about aquatic biodiversity conservation efforts in Indonesia. She highlights the importance of habitat and species protection as well as genetic conservation #conserve #biodiversity BRIN Indonesia

The last presentation of the day and Donné Donné Mathijssen presented initial results from his tagging research. He uses acoustic and PIT tags to study the movements of migratory fish species within restored waterways in Dutch river systems #Telemetry #rivers BRIN Indonesia

Our last visit for the exchange at Marine Aquaculture Development Centre in Lombok. The centre provides a variety of services in marine aquaculture production. One of these includes the production of pearl oysters which have a high commercial demand #development #community
