Seminar: Aquaculture in Brazil - August 2015

Abstract

In August 2015 the seminar "Aquaculture in Brazil" was arranged in Trondheim with participation from industry, research, government and funding institutions both from Brazil and Norway. The Minister of Fisheries and Aquaculture in Brazil (Helder Barbalho) did open the seminar. The seminar covered presentations of the status and potential of Brazilian Aquaculture and presentation of the Norwegian aquaculture sector. The presentations from Norway covered both the history of salmon aquaculture, success factors when building new industry, and how to develop marine aquaculture activities in new countries.

The financial support from both NFR and NorLARNet to arrange the seminar has been crucial. This support did enable invitation of several experts from universities, research institution and government as speakers. The seminar was a success, and new projects and more cooperation will be possible in the future.
