Becoming Aquaculture Expert (Part 3)
Learn how to breed your fish, discover genetic technologies and prevent disease from affecting your farm
Description
Becoming Aquaculture Expert (Part 3) is the next step (after 'Becoming Aquaculture Expert (Part 2)' course that I've initiated previously) into realising your ideas to become a sustainable aquaculture producer. This is the final course of Becoming Aquaculture Expert series (Part 1-3) that I've created. It is designed specifically to provide an overview of aquaculture as the way to farm seafood economically and sustainably.
Since the demand of seafood is increasing, aquaculture industry is growing endlessly to keep a consistent supply of aquatic species for human consumption, pets, medication, recreation, etc and limit the harvesting from wild population. It put a relieve in wild species which would allow them to naturally populate and bring lives back to our ocean.
This 2.5 hours course contains 26 lectures which include detail explanation videos and supplementary articles in each section to guide you along the way.
Becoming Aquaculture Expert (Part 3) will bring to you interesting topics including
- Hormone inducing method for fish breeding
- Natural spawning and hand stripping technique
- Selecting broodstock for spawning
- Larvae rearing
- Selective breeding
- Monosex culture
- Triploidy
- Transgenic
- Bacteria pathogenic disease
- Parasitic pathogenic disease
- Viral pathogenic disease
- Biosecurity measure
- Disease management
To help you grasp the knowledge efficiently, I've included a supplementary article for every section to support what you have learn through the videos.The articles will includes references and links of additional resources of related knowledge and will be updated from time to time.
The content of this course is backed by 100% of research from experts in the leading field of aquaculture. Through learning this course, you will be able to breed your fish of interest either for your own consumption, generate side income or just to be your cool pets. Besides, you will discover genetic technology in aquaculture, which can be utilised in your own farm to produce the desirable traits that you prefer. Disease in aquaculture is also one of the main issue that need clarification especially to the farmers. This course will cover major disease in aquaculture and how to manage and prevent them from entering your farm.
Afraid not..
You will be able to access this course anywhere, anytime at your own pace. If you are already an aquaculturist for a living, learning specific knowledge from a researcher point of view such as in this course will bring you to another level.
