dc.description.abstract | In the present study, innovative and environment friendly copper alloy mesh material was used in an offshore cage system to compare with traditional nylon nets, in a one-year grow-out cycle of European seabass (Dicentrarchuslabrax). Based on combined indicators such as growth performance, feed utilization with bio-economic assessment of initial investment costs, it was observed that copper alloy mesh performed higher productivity indices and economic benefits compared to those in the antifouling coated traditional nylon net pens. Results showed that copper alloy mesh is a promising alternative material that could be used in offshore cage aquaculture with an improved economic return. | |

dc.description.sponsorship | The present article has been written in partial fulfillment of requirements for the degree of Phylosophy of Doctor of the first author. The creation of a small scale offshore demonstration fatinin the Strait of Canakkale-Turkey was financially supported (ICA-TEK Project No: 1049, Seabass) by International Copper Association, New York USA. Special thanks to Wieland Werke AG, Ulm-Germany for the supply of copper alloy material. We would like to express our gratitude to Port of Canakkale (Kepez Limam) in Turkey for their logistic support with port facilities and vessels for the deployment work of mooring system and cages. | |
