La aquaculture is the cultivation under controlled conditions of species that thrive in the aquatic environment (fish, molluscs, crustaceans and plants) and are useful to humans. Aquaculture is linked to human intervention to increase production through stock concentration, feeding and protection from predators.

Aquaculture delimits areas in seas, lakes or dams in areas of exploitation of marine animals and plants. Within aquaculture we can differentiate between 4 categories: algae, molluscs, crustaceans and fish.

The aquaculture sector has a great importance in the economy of a country providing jobs, foreign exchange generation and an increase in foodstuffs.

Aquaculture has the potential to contribute to the world's food supply in a significant, environmentally friendly way and contributes to the restocking of certain species.

The capacity to generating food, jobs and foreign exchange by this activity satisfies the needs of society as a whole. The importance of the fishing activity is based on the fact that the productive processes, especially catching and cultivation, are carried out on a community basis.

Aquaculture generates food with a high level of end-product quality. It has the versatility The project can be carried out in different spaces such as:

In the sea (marine aquaculture).
Rivers and lakes (inland aquaculture).
Pools or ponds (natural or man-made).

Because of this, it is possible to implement it in different countries regardless of their state of development.

FAO highlights the potential of aquaculture to support human consumption and protect food security by assisting in the production of a large number of species of fish, seaweed, shellfish, etc.

According to FAO studies, aquaculture estimates that the following are farmed more than 580 species such as:

362 fish.
104 molluscs.
62 crustaceans.
6 frogs and reptiles.
9 aquatic invertebrates.
37 aquatic plants.

Aquaculture not only has advantages in terms of food consumption, but also plays an important role in the following areas:

The development of vitamin supplements.
Fighting diseases.
The production of cosmetics.
Development of second generation biofuels (such as microalgae).
To help the recovery of natural areas in conservation problems.

What are the advantages of aquaculture?

The advantages of aquaculture include the fact that thanks to her increased production, stability in the food system, considerably reduced environmental impact, contribution to the conservation of aquatic species, increased levels of food nutrition, etc.

In the economic aspect, The aquaculture sector provides a large number of jobs and helps the development of poor communities around the world.

Aquaculture systems

Nowadays, there are various aquaculture techniques to produce all kinds of seafood that are in high demand such as farmed shrimp, salmon, trout, sea bream, sea bass, tilapia and many other different types of species.

There are 3 types of systems production:

Extensive aquaculture: Production system where human intervention is minimal and natural conditions are used to the maximum. It is carried out in ponds with a minimum size of 5 hectares.
Semi-intensive aquaculture: A system in which man is involved in the supply of feed and the addition of fry. It has ponds with an area of between 5 and 1 hectare.
Intensive aquaculture: A system that seeks greater production in the smallest possible space and time. It is carried out in ponds of less than one hectare in size.

Current aquaculture problems and our solutions

Bacterial diseases and parasitic infestations are a very serious risk to the sustainability and profitability of aquaculture production worldwide. DOMCA has developed the Aquagarlic range, an innovative range of natural additives exclusive for aquaculture feeds in order to reduce the impact of these problematic outbreaks for the aquaculture farmer.

The ultimate goal is to ensure that our products help to improve fish health conditions in both inland and offshore aquaculture. Therefore, the Aquagarlic range has been developed through a specific approach for this sector, combining basic research in our highly specialised laboratory (DMC Research Center) together with applied research in the field with the collaboration of our customers and associated research centres.

Domca's range of products is based on natural compounds and contributes to reduce the use of antibiotics and chemicals in aquaculture.
