INTERVIEW

BIM strategy aims to deliver 1,200 jobs and €1bn in sales ‘BIM Strategy 2013 Capturing Ireland’s Share Of The Global Seafood Opportunity’ constructed in line with the targets and objectives set out in the key government policies relating directly or indirectly to the seafood sector over the next five years BIM CEO Jason Whooley outlines the new strategies key elements for Gery Flynn

GF: BIMs strategy is an action plan for Ireland’s seafood sector that will deliver twelve hundred jobs and a billion Euro from sales by building scale and enhancing competitiveness in the Irish seafood sector. This sounds optimistic, but is it realistic? JW: Optimistic, not really when we look at the growth that we’ve had over the last number of years in our seafood exports. Over the last two years we’ve had almost 30% growth in seafood exports, and the growth that we’re talking about for the one billion Euro in sales is primarily driven by an increase in seafood exports. And, with an increase in scale and raw material, we believe that figure is achievable. The strategy is built around five key priority areas supported by a number of high level projects to be undertaken by BIM in partnership with industry. The first of these is to expand the raw material supply from fisheries and aquaculture to Irish processors. The drive to develop large fin fish farming units in deep water offshore sites is already underway, but is it winning

the hearts and minds of the public? It’s very challenging and I think the opposition, some with really genuine concerns, and some not so genuine are creating additional difficulties for us in the hearts and minds of the public. But ultimately, this is the right thing to do. This is a really good industry to be supporting. It has got a phenomenal market demand - particularly for salmon - and we will continue to pursue it. Obviously, we will have to do so in a very sensitive fashion with full regulatory compliance and also with full sustainability and sustainable practices in mind. The second key priority area is about maximising additional value from the raw material base. It will be necessary to differentiate Irish seafood products from those of lower cost producers and a move away from commodity trading will be paramount. What does that mean? In Ireland we are excellent at commodity trading when it comes to the pelagics because we’ve got the scale and our cost base right. The

two essential components of commodity trading are sufficient scale and reducing costs to minimum. If we go commodity trading we end up in competition with the likes of Pangasius, Tilapia, species with a a much lower cost base, and we don’t have the scale for that. If we continue to trade on a commodity basis with a lot of those species we will have real difficulties in returning higher prices to producers. There is reference also to the Seafood Development Centre in Clonakilty which opened in 2009. It’s still fairly new, but can you point to an example of its success? I think it has been successful. If you look at Keohane’s Seafoods – one of the first companies to come out of there – it was an incubation company in the SDC only about three years ago. I think they are now employing more than thirty people and are generating significant revenues after opening up new channels for their products and for seafood in general. That would be a classic example of what has come out of the SDC that has really worked.

The third key priority is to create scale within industry structures. The Irish seafood industry already employs 11,000 people in fishing, fish farming, fish processing. We are told that BIM already commenced work on this plan in 2012 with the ‘Route to market programme’. How has this worked, and what changes are needed to make it work even better? It has worked well in that what we have are companies that have competed traditionally in the European market. If you look at the European market for example being worth €55bn in sales per annum. We’re less than €300 million in that market and yet we’ve got companies competing with each other in that market. That has been very negative from a pricing perspective. So, what we’ve done in new markets – take China for example – is to bring together some of those competing companies to try and achieve the scale to reduce competition and to access very large complex markets where you need to have a significant scale and presence on the ground. Those joint ventures that we launched in 2012 have actually worked quite well,

and we’re hoping to expand on those in this new strategy. Number four priority speaks about developing industry skills that will help to grow the sector. Has BIM linked up with other institutes or bodies abroad, Norway for example, to learn their best practice and to avoid re-inventing the wheel? In simple terms we haven’t, but it’s a very good idea. We’re certainly planning an aquaculture course with Údarás na Gaeltachta which we believe we’ll be able to roll out probably in September or October of this year. That will have a strong Norwegian element in terms of accessing Norwegian institutions from a student perspective. So yes, absolutely, I think where we were coming from initially was broadening it out from an existing sector to widening it out to the wider academic sector and obviously, any international dimension showing best practice internationally would be a very useful route to take. The fifth priority area mentions enhancing the environmental sustainability of Irish seafood. Is Ireland not moving too slowly in producing the badly-needed fishery NATURA plans referred to in this strategy document. Isn’t there still a monumental challenge ahead to win the hearts and minds of the public especially with regards to a much-needed expansion of the fin fish farming sector offshore? Yes on both fronts. We are moving far too slowly with the Natura resolution, and it’s a source of great frustration for me

personally. More importantly however, it’s a huge source of frustration for the industry. It’s a major roadblock to expansion for our traditional growers who have markets and want to expand, and it has to be resolved as a priority. BIM will commit as much resources as possible to making it happen. And yes, it is also difficult to capture the hearts and minds of communities when you are dealing with something like finfish farming and when there has been a lot of misinformation put out. Because once that gets into the public domain - no matter how crazy and nonscientifically-based it is - we have great difficulty trying to explain why it’s wrong. People automatically start thinking that there must be something to it. We’re struggling because there have been some ludicrous suggestions about the

damage that finfish farming can do to the environment, and we have to defend that. We, in BIM, have a big job of work to do to persuade people. It will be about us being as open and transparent as possible with local communities, and making sure that they know we are committed to doing things in a responsible fashion. The strategy claims that sustainable fish farming, when regulated and managed correctly, provides valuable employment investment and revenue amounting to a 78% increase in volume of production by 2020. Is that a realistic target, and do you think it’s achievable? By 2020, absolutely. Not only do I think it’s realistic, I think it’s absolutely essential. We have fallen behind in the face of massive market demand. Only this week the salmon

market for China has been opened up. But there’s no point in having markets if you can’t supply them, and that’s the challenge facing our producers. They don’t have enough raw material. With this strategy we’re determined as an organisation to play a more hands-on role, as we’ve done before in opening up those new productive sites. That’s what we have continued to do. We will look at additional sites similar to Galway, and in consultation with the local communities. Can you say anything more about the salmon farm proposal for Galway Bay? We have made our licence application. It is being considered by the Department, by the Minister and by his advisors. That process is on-going and we look forward to a positive development in the not too distant future.

Sustainability the anchor stopping coastal communities from crashing Commission threat of a Europan performance comparison, but now, starting with the easiest and most obvious targets, licences are finally being processed. However, IFA will keep a vigilant eye on the regulators to ensure that it does not all come to a shuddering halt yet again once the first obstacles are met.

Richie Flynn, IFA Aquaculture After many years of hard campaigning by IFA Aquaculture to get successive governments to do their job on the issue of licences, there is, finally, movement on processing the huge backlog. On behalf of an industry which felt abandoned, IFA’s consistent, hard hitting but always justified criticism of successive ministers and senior policy makers has been successful. ndustry leaders were rightly sick of the endless meetings, submissions and presentations to TDs, state agencies, civil servants and the endless excuses fired back at us to justify inaction. In the face of rapidly rising unemployment, and in contrast to the fine statements of intent in countless strategies and plans, the reality was that dealing with a system so laden with inertia saw the Irish industry become the laughing stock of international aquaculture, the investment community and the food export sector.

It may have taken a High Court judge to point out the Department’s incompetence as well as the European

The resulting public consultative process for aquaculture has, like similar processes in terrestrial planning and infrastructure come a long way, largely through the influence of EU legislation and, unfortunately, also as a reaction to clearly dishonest dealings in the past. Local communities and those whose livelihoods depend on clear and transparent decision making are recognised stakeholders today in the consultation process along with project developers and elected representatives. The flip side is the emergence of groups of professional system abusers who describe themselves as stakeholders when they have no mandate to represent anyone, are not answerable to the public or regulatory authorities, who do not live or work in a local area or rear their families there. The aquaculture industry will have to put up with these darlings of the media and politicians who do not want to stand up for cashstrapped young local families. What the industry can do is assert its position as a real stakeholder, and what better way than by going to the root of sustainability – the buzzword for all development today – and putting serious thought into the state in which we will leave this industry and our environment for the next generation to manage and make a living from. In Dublin during May 2013, then President of the EU Fisheries Council and Minister for the Marine, Simon Coveney, along with the IFA President, IFA Aquaculture and the Federation of European Aquaculture Producers witnessed the signing of a document in

Dublin entitled ‘Streaming Sustainability’ which outlined the commitments by the aquaculture sector to ensuring that the industry and its environment can be handed on to successive generations. It is worth re-stating the five core principles of sustainability to which the European aquaculture sector has signed up to:

CLEAN WATER RESOURCES The bedrock of our industry is clean water, which we will protect, use respectfully and enhance at every opportunity by minimising impacts on the quality of the resource and by increasing efficiency of use through new technologies and improved management.

A HEALTHY ENVIRONMENT We must pass on both a healthy business and a healthy environment to the next generation, since one will not work without the other; each decision taken must be tempered by striking the right balance between these two driving forces.

A SCIENCE-BASED PROFESSION Our future depends on the promotion and application of science of the highest standard, encouraging sustainable innovation and communicating best practice so as to harness the production potential of European waters and make optimal use of the resources required. We pledge to make our knowledge and experience available to the next generation.

PARTNERING FOR SUSTAINABILITY We commit to open and transparent partnerships with policy-makers, decision-takers and aquaculture stakeholder to establish the

Aquaculture & Seafood Ireland

foundations and responsibilities for sustainability in all aspects of the aquaculture value-chain.

RESPECT

FOR THE

CONSUMER

Sustaining and improving consumer confidence in European aquaculture will be furthered by establishing the highest standards for high quality, healthy products, secured by robust control and traceability systems. Each of these points, either in groups or individually, will inform the work of each of our members every day but it is rare to see them written down so clearly and to identify the links between them. Yet, by committing to these principles, the industry is going further than, say, a department or state agency does in writing up a fiveyear plan or an election manifesto. It is putting to the forefront of our mind the young men and women who want to work with the sea and with seafood, who see a career path for them outside of seasonal minimum wage jobs on offer in other sectors

such as tourism and who otherwise would be considering ripping up their roots in local communities and heading for Canada, Australia or

elsewhere to repeat the cycle of misery imposed by the mistakes and shortsightedness of previous government policies.

Sea-Fisheries Protection Authority – playing a vital role in Ireland’s seafood industry WHO ARE WE? The Sea-Fisheries Protection Authority (SFPA) is the official agency responsible for implementing food safety legislation in Ireland’s seafood sector.

WHY DOES OUR JOB MATTER TO YOU? Aquaculture is assuming an increasingly larger role in supplying seafood, and there is every indication that it will soon surpass wild production. Irish aquaculture has immense potential to participate in world markets, and SFPA oversight of this industry will be a necessary part of underpinning its expansion. All food producers are subject to

official control, and aquaculture producers are no different. International trade in food is based upon a reciprocated trust in the control systems in place in individual countries. The trade of fishery products within the EU is possible only with the approval issued and other underlying official control systems provided by the SFPA. The export of fishery products to countries outside of the EU generally requires health certificates to be issued by the SFPA. Since its inception the SFPA has also negotiated trade agreements to facilitate the acceptance of Irish seafood in Russia, Japan and China, as well as reducing the bureaucratic requirements for trade into the USA. This market access has only been possible due to the acceptance of world-class production standards by producers and the control systems operated by SFPA.

COMPANIES? Overall, we believe that Irish seafood businesses recognise the need to ensure that necessary systems are in place to protect public health and to maintain the good reputation of Irish seafood. Our role is to ensure that food safety requirements are complied with, and we work to achieve this via the provision of information to support compliance and then verification of compliance through

inspections, auditing, monitoring and sampling. We always try to answer questions from individual producers, and we meet aquaculture industry representatives at fora such as our own Consultative Committee and the Molluscan Shellfish Safety Committee. We try also to work through issues in order to reach the shared goal of a thriving compliant industry.

In aquaculture, this includes primary producers such as shellfish or finfish farmers as well as the processors of that seafood.

WHAT IS MICROBIOLOGICAL CLASSIFICATION? Microbiological classification of production areas is a requirement of EU food legislation. Each shellfish production area within the EU has to be given an official classification - A, B or C. This

work creates a direct interface between the SFPA and shellfish producers. The microbial load of coastal waters is a reflection of various factors, most notably run-off from land. Microbiological classification is designed to be a reflection of the general status of coastal waters and can limit the markets into which shellfish may be sold. The current microbiological classification system is based upon general indicator bacteria whose levels might reasonably be assumed to indicate overall water quality.

WHAT SORT OF CHANGES ARE COMING DOWN THE TRACKS? Recent audits of various EU Member States by the EU Commission have resulted in various outcomes including an active review of the criteria by which shellfish areas are awarded the highest ‘A’ status. In general terms there would appear to be some willingness towards formalising an allowance in

legislation for Class A status to be retained despite occasional moderately elevated results. The details of a particular proposal are not yet finalized, but some change in this area is likely.

HOW DO WE GO ABOUT CLASSIFYING SHELLFISH AREAS? Based on data obtained from a microbiological sampling programme the SFPA annually classifies shellfish production areas for the commercial harvesting of bivalve shellfish. SFPA officers take monthly samples from all production areas, and the bacterial (micro) load in each sample is analysed. The annual classification process employed in Ireland entails the review of Micro results from a three year dataset obtained from some 147 sample locations around the coast. This classification process is undertaken together with input from the Marine Institute, BIM and the shellfish industry, in accordance with an agreed Code of Practice which is available at www.sfpa.ie. On the basis of this monitoring each area is then classified into one of three categories which determine the level of treatment required before consumption. These categories and associated acceptable treatment are set out in Table 1 below.

Mussel harvesting

A key problem that classification is designed to address is the potential for waterborne Norovirus to accumulate in shellfish. Scientific understanding of these viruses is rapidly developing, including reliable methods for counting them in shellfish. No official limit for these viruses in shellfish currently exists â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and equally, no role for their assessment in assigning microbiological classification exists at present. In 2011 the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) published their view on food-borne viruses in general â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and then in 2012 EFSA published their views on the specific matter of Norovisues in oysters. That latter view saw merit in establishing acceptable limits; however it did not extend as far as recommending a value. This area continues to progress slowly towards a legal limit

being put in place above which oysters might not be allowed on the market for direct human consumption. SFPA devotes much of its available resources to trying to ensure the practicality of such technical legislation.

DETAIL ON THE FINFISH MONITORING BRIEF For finfish aquaculture the SFPA is responsible for verifying the food safety requirements at primary production (farming), slaughter and subsequent processing. In an effort to maximize efficiency for both state agencies and finfish producers, we have incorporated the inspection work we had performed on fish farms into a general wide-ranging inspection performed by Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine. SFPA role is limited to the follow-up of any non-

compliances detected by those visits, or by analysis by the Marine Institute under the National Residue Monitoring Programme. Following on from primary production, SFPA remains the lead agency for approval of slaughter facilitates and processing facilitates and export certification consignments going outside the EU.

Irish Seafood – becoming a Global Seafood Player Ian Mannix Ireland’s seafood industry has the potential to achieve €1 billion in sales by 2020, and support up to 3,000 new jobs, a BIM-organised industry conference at Dublin’s Irish Management Institute has learned. pening the conference, ‘Irish Seafood – Becoming a Global Player’, Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine, Simon Coveney, declared that “following expansion into new markets and engaging in a range of new value-adding activities, the ambition is for

Ireland to be a global player in the seafood industry by 2020”. “The Irish seafood sector is currently worth €822 million to the economy, it employs approximately 11,000 people and it’s showing phenomenal growth on the export market

with sales up 18% on 2011 to €493 million in 2012. The scale of the opportunity for the industry is truly enormous,” he revealed.

increased seafood consumption, the demand for seafood is expected to be an additional 42 million tonnes by 2030”, he said.

Minister Coveney added that despite declining demand and prices in traditional markets such as the UK, Germany, Spain, and France due to the economic downturn, opportunities were evident in emerging markets such as China.

FUTURE OPPORTUNITIES

“With the global population forecast to top eight billion by 2025 and with China’s growing middle class driving

Food Futurist Christophe Pelletier pointed out that “even a very small share of the Chinese market would offer a significant boost to the Irish industry”. “If every Chinese person was to eat 100 grams of Irish seafood just once a year, that would equal 150,000 tonnes a year. And in the coming years, seafood consumption per capita per year in China is expected to rise from 26 kg today to 36 kg in 2020. Just a 1% share of that market would be greater than 500,000 tons a year,” Mr Pelletier noted. Despite this, he cautioned Irish firms against writing off traditional markets in their search for opportunities in Asia and elsewhere. “You must keep and protect traditional markets, optimise your customer base and work with customers on innovating new products,” he advised.

Gorjan Nikolik, Food and Agribusiness Researcher with Rabobank International pointed out that Ireland currently has significant unused production potential. “With major production resources available, there is

Aquaculture & Seafood Ireland

an opportunity for Ireland to become a global player in the aquaculture industry. Economies of scale can be achieved very quickly in this business, even without a large domestic market in place,” he explained.

“This in turn will motivate investments from the large meat companies. We foresee that the investment potential arising from Chinese companies looking to secure supply for their domestic markets is another major opportunity. Seafood will be in demand long after meat demand is satisfied in China,” he said.

Revealing that funding for the aquaculture industry is available also outside Ireland, Mr Nikolik emphasised that venture capital “is attracted to innovative sectors outside of the high-tech industry since the dotcom collapse of a number of years ago. And other potential investors include the aquaculture sector and the meat industry”.

According to BIM CEO Jason Whooley the Irish industry’s ability to exploit these opportunities was dependent on “building scale and increasing collaboration”. “Appropriate scale will enable a company, or a group of companies, working collaboratively to invest in marketing, research and skills, all of which provide access to new markets and improve company performance. In

turn, this will result in the sector delivering much needed jobs and exports,” Mr Whooley said. “BIM’s goal is to assist with the development of one or two entities with a turnover in excess of €50 million in each of the key seafood categories – shellfish, pelagic, salmon and whitefish. These entities will in turn be supported by a range of innovative, smaller seafood companies”. He added that greater collaboration within the sector and the establishment of appropriate joint venture operations and partnerships “will play a key role in the achievement of this goal”. “BIM’s ‘Collective Route to Market Scheme’, which was launched in January 2013, is aimed at promoting such

collaboration by offering seafood companies grant-aid assistance and expert advice to work collectively to reduce duplication costs, boost profitability and increase competitiveness on export markets,” he revealed. According to Mr Whooley this scheme will deliver €400,000 in funding the industry and it is anticipated that between four and six Seafood Collectives will apply for financial and business development support under the scheme this year. “These projects go beyond the scope of any single company, and will improve the environment for investment and assist the industry to emerge onto the global stage by capitalising on opportunities in new markets,” he concluded.

Dingle Bay Seaweed and Irish Atlantic Seaweed helping to develop a new industry for Ireland David Millard There is a lot of interest currently in Ireland in the potential value of seaweeds, and the question often asked of us in BIM is: how do I build a successful seaweed business? Access to resources is often highlighted as a bar to development - a common theme across many sectors. lobally, seaweeds have been valued at 11 billion US dollars per annum, and kelp forests are four times more productive per square metre than any intensively-farmed crop on land.

World-wide in 2012, over 19 million tonnes of seaweed were harvested with 95% cultivated, and 5% from wild resources. This ratio is reversed in Europe with 99.9% of seaweeds coming from wild resources, and only 0.1% cultivated. These figures are similar in Ireland where over 30,000 tonnes are harvested from wild resources, with less than 50 tonnes cultivated.

of the aquaculture industry particularly farming seaweeds - as offering opportunities for future growth and development. In 2009 DBS secured a three-year trial licence to farm different native seaweed species on an 18 hectare site in Ventry Harbour, Co. Kerry. This is

the largest site ever to be granted a licence for seaweed cultivation in Ireland, but it’s still very small in comparison to other locations, especially in the Asia Pacific region. Working closely with BIM to secure the licence, DBS began to develop the business by first deploying 220m subsurface longline seeded with material supplied under contract by Freddie O’Mahony of Cartron Point Shellfish (CPS) who operates a hatchery in Gearhies, near Bantry, Co. Cork. CPS also has a second hatchery in Co. Clare which is run by Freddie’s business partner, Iarflaith Connellan.

Farming seaweeds in Ireland has been undertaken by various bodies over the last ten years, with Bord Iascaigh Mhara having a keen interest throughout and funding several technical trials of various species as part of a number of EU projects. Dingle Bay Seaweed (DBS) is the business partnership of Paul Flannery of Dingle, Co. Kerry and Mike Murphy of Castletownbere, Co. Cork. Both men came ashore having spent the previous 20 years owning and operating various fishing vessel. They saw the potential

permission for the construction of a large scale processing facility. Globally, the uses of seaweeds include feed, cosmetics, fertilizers and the industrial extraction of gums and chemicals. The main species grown by aquaculture are Porphyra, Laminaria, Undaria and Kappaphycus sp. for food, human and animal, with the industrial utilisation of seaweed mostly centered on the extraction of marine hydrocolloids and to a much lesser extent, certain fine biochemicals.

Both increased cultivation and improved processing of Irish seaweeds is also progressing, and although will never match figures seen elsewhere, there are exciting developments and opportunities for Irish companies ahead. Hopefully Dingle Bay Seaweed and Irish Atlantic Seaweed will prove one route to a successful and profitable seaweed business.

CPS has been working in the seaweed industry supplying seaweed material for on-growing since 2003 – a service which continues to operate today. Initial trials proved successful, and over the next few years more and more longlines were deployed, achieving onsite yields of up to 10kg wet weight of product per linear metre of deployment. In 2012 DBS applied for and were successful in attaining a full ten year licence for the 18 hectare site, and in 2012 they deployed over 12,000m of seeded string, most of which has now been harvested. 2013 saw DBS up-scaling their processing facilities, developing a lowenergy, low-cost drying system which preserves the seaweeds and maintains its nutritional values. This allows the seaweeds to be further processed into a range of shelf-stable products aimed currently at the animal feed market. Meanwhile, a partnership with Irish Atlantic Seaweed (www.irishatlanticseaweed.com) has brought onboard the expertise of Liz O’Leary, who has worked with many of the leading seafood processors. A product range under the Atlantic+ lable was recently launched, and there is also on line shopping presence. This is the first stage in the development of further added-value seaweed products as DBS have secured planning

Ireland’s land-based aquaculture Benen Dallaghan Irish seafood is internationally renowned for its quality and flavour, and has a growing a reputation which readily translates to high market demand. Against this backdrop however, the scale, value and economic benefit of land based aquaculture in Ireland often goes unnoticed. and based aquaculture is geographically widespread and diverse in nature, spanning both freshand seawater production facilities using a variety of technologies ranging from open pond culture to hightech recirculation systems. This industry provides much needed employment and essential raw material for our expanding marine aquaculture sector, and subsequently ensures employment creation in coastal areas. The overall monetary value of land based aquaculture is €7.9 million (2012) with an estimated employment figure of 90 (full time). However, these figures mask the true value of this vital sector.

Most land based aquaculture in Ireland is currently conducted using fresh water with the cultivation of species such as trout (brown and rainbow), char, salmon (smolts) and perch occurring in several counties. In the past, turbot (sea water), eels (on-grown in fresh water) and even sea horses have been produced in land based units with varying degrees of success. Cod (to fry in sea water) are grown in land based facilities for transfer to sea rearing sites. Cod farming is an emerging industry in Ireland, and it is

interesting to note that numerous aquaculture licences for trout and salmon facilitate fishery conservation and restocking programs on many Irish river systems. On the shellfish side, urchin, abalone and oyster spat are grown at land based facilities using sea water. Urchin are hatched at two sites in Cork with juveniles being transferred for ongrowing at sea. There are two abalone facilities in counties Cork and Galway, and demand is high for this superb product. Oyster spat grown in counties Clare, Sligo and Galway provide raw material to the Irish oyster industry. Another site for spat production is presently under construction in Kerry. Freshwater trout are the main species by value grown to harvest size in land based units, and are the main focus of activity in Cork, Wicklow and Kilkenny with a combined value of €1.78 million in 2012. As for fresh water trout, product branding and diversification into filleting, smoking and roe production has allowed this sector to grow successfully. There is also a relationship with the marine aquaculture sector for this species. Trout are reared in fresh water on land facilities

and transferred to finishing sites at sea. Char are produced in Galway only with 40 tonnes grown in 2012. Salmon smolts are reared in counties Donegal, Galway, Mayo, Cork, Tipperary and on the Carlow-Wexford border with production highest in Donegal. Forty-six (full time) people are currently employed in smolt production. Levels of salmon smolt growing are directly related to the degree of marine salmon aquaculture activity around the coast. Ireland supplies the majority of its own smolts to its indigineous salmon industry. However, from time to time Ireland also exports high quality smolt to other countries such as Scotland. The Irish smolt industry is worth €5.6 million (2012) (representing circa 1% of Norway smolt

production). This figure is set to increase in the future. Perch production can be found in counties Roscommon and Tipperary with an encouraging production of 35 tonnes so far in 2013 (year to date figure, August 2013). Footnotes:1. Many marine aquaculture businesses have shore based activity associated with their operations where they carry out tasks such as depuration and packaging. The economic value of this kind of processing, while considerable, is not reflected in the above figures. 2. Inter tidal growing of oysters and other species (on trestles for example) is not classified as ‘land based’ for the purposes of this article.

OCEANFEED™ SWINE

a number of feed formulas. It also provides a number of additional benefits.

FUNCTIONAL FEED Historically, seaweeds are known to have a high polysaccharide, iodine and mineral content. However, they also contain a number of bioactive compounds including structural/storage polysaccharides, amino acids and proteins, pigments, lipids and polyphenols. Studies have shown that these compounds have a wide range of biological activities including antiviral, antimicrobial, antifungal, mitogenic, anti-inflammatory, anti-adhesion, ACE-inhibitory, antioxidant and anti-cancer activity. The high levels of these bioactive compounds in OceanFeed™ can reduce disease, stimulate growth and enhance performance in both land and marine animals.

OCEANFEED™ SALMON Aquaculture is now the fastest growing sector of food production, growing at nearly 9% per annum and producing over 50% of all seafood for human consumption. Salmon is considered a healthy food, high in polyunsaturated Omega-3 fatty acids which reduce significantly the risk of cardiovascular disease. A 60-week OceanFeed™ trial

with Atlantic salmon has shown that the seaweed blend is a highly effective replacement for the mineral and vitamin premixes and other added synthetic ingredients and colorants in feed. The trial, which compared the performance of OceanFeed™-fed salmon to a group on a reference diet, found an improved weight gain (2.7%); 3.3% lower FCR; improved pigmentation and taste; and a 40% reduction in sea lice infestation. OceanFeed™ was included in the fish diet at 15%. Subsequent analysis also revealed a 25 % increase in the level of the omega-3 fatty acids in the OceanFeed™ salmon compared to the reference group demonstrating the potential positive impact of OceanFeed™ on human health.

Global pork production has increased by over 400% over the past four decades (FAO, 2011), and the current practice of intensive pig farming is susceptible to many diseases. As antibiotics are now banned in several countries, natural and sustainable alternatives are highly sought-after. Seaweed is one answer to this problem. For example, seaweed-derived bioactive molecules such as Laminarin and Fucoidan, present in Laminaria digitata, have been shown to have a potent anti-microbial action in piglets. Seaweed extract supplementation has previously been shown to reduce enterobacteria, bifidobacteria and lactobacilli populations in the caecum and colon of the weaned pig. Ocean Harvest Technology has investigated the partial replacement of mineral and vitamin pre-mixes with OceanFeed™ Swine in a preliminarily trial and also in a large follow-up commercial trial. For the preliminary Irish trial, OceanFeed™ Swine was included in the feed at 0.5 %, 2 %, and 5 %, and results were compared to those from a reference diet using a total of 240 pigs over a four-month period as the animals developed from weaners to 100kg pigs. Results obtained

from this trial showed that the OceanFeed™-fed group had improvements in weight gain (pigs fed with 0.5% OceanFeed™ were 5.5 kg heavier on average at the end of the trial) and a lower feed conversion efficiency (average 0.06) at only a 0.5% OceanFeed™ inclusion. OceanFeed™ also significantly improved taste and texture of the meat, improved gut flora and generally improved the overall health of the animal. The subsequent commercial trial took place on a large Canadian pig farm that produces over 10,000 animals per annum. This large trial also provided excellent results, with an immediate and notable improvement in working conditions due to a reduction in ammonia. In agreement with the previous trial, higher weight gain as well as shorter production cycles and lower mortality were reported. However, the most remarkable finding from the commercial trial was that inclusion of OceanFeed™ in the diet reduced the overall antibiotic usage by a remarkable 50% when compared to the reference diet. In 2013, Ocean Harvest Technology received an additional report from an independent Canadian pig farmer who conducted an 8week trial that compared the effects of feeding a diet with or without OceanFeed™ to pigs at a 1% inclusion. Again, the results of this trial were extremely positive as the OceanFeed™-fed pigs, showed an overall 1.51% reduction in mortality, faster growth and a $1.57 reduction in the total cost of feed per pig over the 8week period.

OCEANFEED™, C-PET, EQUINE AND SHRIMP Like all OceanFeed™ formulas, the C-Pet, Equine and Shrimp products are prepared and blended using a

unique process that ensures the integrity of the bioactive ingredients in the final feed. For instance, it is known that bioactive sulphated polysaccharides and other seaweed-derived bioactive compounds can protect shrimp from White Spot Syndrome Virus and assist in the control of chronic diseases. In addition to Shrimp, Ocean Harvest Technology also offers functional seaweed blends that are specially formulated for both pets and horses. These products, called OceanFeed™ C-Pet and OceanFeed™ Equine offer similar benefits to the other OceanFeed™ products including improved gut health and immunity. For example, OceanFeed™ Equine is high in structural carbohydrates which slow down intestinal transit and is also high in iodine and minerals which together result in increased nutrient absorption, energy levels and

an improved shiny coat on the horse.

IMPLICATIONS Overall, the data so far has demonstrated that the significant levels of polysaccharides, fibre, protein, pigments, minerals and additional bioactive components in OceanFeed™ are extremely beneficial for a large number of animals in aqua- and agriculture, with a large proportion of the benefits arising through improvements in gut health and enhanced immunity. The fact that OceanFeed™ is a 100% natural and sustainable ingredient that can also replace chemical additives in a manner that is cost-neutral, highlights the potentially pivotal role of seaweed in our ability to continually produce safe, sustainable, high quality products. *Dr Simon Faulkner is a Research Scientist with Ocean Harvest Technology

INTERVIEW Meadbh Seoighe, Aquaculture & Seafood Development Executive at Údarás na Gaeltachta talks to Aquaculture Ireland about Údarás na Gaeltachta and its development role in relation to the Aquaculture and Seafood Sector

AI: Where does the seafood and aquaculture sector sit in Údarás na Gaeltachta’s enterprise development strategy? MS: The Gaeltacht coastline stretches over 2,500km along the Western Seaboard, taking in counties Donegal, Mayo, Galway, Kerry and Waterford. Together with the six Gaeltacht islands, almost 25% of the Irish coastline is in the Gaeltacht. The coastal positioning of the Gaeltacht places it in a natural

position to develop marinerelated enterprises – aquaculture, fish and seaweed processing, as well as food, tourism and energyrelated projects. Our role is to support the creation of strong innovative enterprises which have the capacity to contribute to job creation in the Gaeltacht. Marine-based enterprises are important in terms of wealth-creation and employment generation and most especially because businesses that rely on a local natural resource like the sea are more likely to remain in the region.

AI: What kind of specific supports can you provide? MS: It depends on the project. Generally, most aquaculture and fish processing supports are determined by the European Fisheries Fund , soon to become the European

Maritime Fisheries Fund (EMFF). Údarás has specific schemes which we, in conjunction with BIM, offer annually to aquaculture and fish processing businesses in the Gaeltacht. We work closely with BIM in terms of assessing and administering these funds. Projects that are focused on Research and Development or Feasibility Studies are particularly encouraged in addition to training programmes for employees. For added value projects, that aren’t governed by the EMFF, there are supports available for employment, capital investment and training. In general, Údarás assesses a particular business plan and can then offer support if the project is deemed eligible. Levels of financial assistance are negotiable, depending on location, skill levels and employment potential.

AI: Where do you see the potential for growth in this sector? MS: We continue to see innovation and process improvement across all enterprises involved in seafood processing. This

becomes important as costs increase and processers compete with companies based in lower cost economies. We see a continued drive towards efficiencies and towards creating added value products, and companies focusing their efforts on differentiating themselves from their competitors. The seaweed sector has a lot of development potential, from growing the seaweed to producing high-value end products. This is an area where the Gaeltacht, and indeed the country as a whole, has potential to excel and we want to support anyone who wishes to develop a business in this sector. We will continue to support our client-base in undertaking new developments and by supporting enterprises which are involved in the sub-supply and servicing of the marine-based sectors.

The Aquaculture & Fisheries Development Centre, UCC contributing to Ireland’s marine sector through increased research and collaboration Dr Maria O’Mahoney and Dr Sarah Culloty outline how the research-active AFDC is playing a key role in the future development of aquaculture and fisheries in Ireland and internationally. esearch to support the enhancement of Ireland’s position in a global seafood market is of fundamental importance in securing the long-term viability of the sector. Within University College Cork, the Aquaculture and Fisheries Development Centre’s main goal is to support, stimulate and promote the development of aquaculture and fisheries, thereby enabling both to achieve their full socio-economic potential by utilising sustainable natural resources. In doing so, the AFDC has developed a significant track record in applied research and conservation issues of importance to the sector. Our main strategy is to carry out research that helps to support the position of primary producers in contributing to the ‘smart’ and ‘green’ vision for industry growth as outlined in Food Harvest 2020.

RESEARCH FUNDING In recent years the AFDC has secured over €10m in research funding from both national and European Union (EU) funding programmes to cover four broad thematic areas: • Aquaculture Research (Prof. Gavin Burnell) • Molecular Genetics of Aquatic Animals (Prof. Tom Cross) • Shellfish Health (Dr Sarah Culloty) • Marine Mammals and Fisheries research (Dr Emer Rogan) The AFDC research portfolio includes over thirty-five independent projects carried out in recent years together with industry and research partners at both national and international level. The centre hosts two highly prestigious Beaufort Marine Research Awards for the ‘Ecosystem Approach to Fisheries Management’ and ‘Fish Population Genetics’ – both of which are funded by the Marine Institute under the National Development Plan Marine Research SubProgramme 2007-2014. The main objectives of these awards are to build national research capacity in particular strategic areas and to get a greater understanding of the key challenges which the sector will

Aquaculture & Seafood Ireland

face into the future. These include: climate change; fish stock depletion; quantitative fish stock assessment; and minimising the environmental impact of fisheries and aquaculture activities. Also aligned within the NDP Marine Research Sub-Programme is the EIRCOD project which provides the technical R&D to support a national initiative to establish cod farming in Ireland.

SHELLFISH Researchers from the Shellfish Health group are currently collaborating on six EU projects which investigate the key diseases impacting shellfish within the EU. Research on herpes virus in the Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas is determining if the virus can persist outside the oyster in the wider environment. Development of resistance to the virus is yet another focus. Other aspects of this work involves researching the parasite Bonamia ostreae in the native oyster Ostrea edulis, and investigating the potential impacts of climate change on a range of shellfish species in the Irish Sea – including how aquaculture and fisheries might be impacted in the future in this area. On a regional scale, Prof. Gavin Burnell acts as the scientific advisor to the Valentia Harbour Scallop Recovery Project. Prof. Burnell and PhD student, Daryl Gunning, recently secured an Irish Research Council Employment-based Postgraduate Scholarship with the Daithí O’Murchú Marine Research Station, Bantry, to assess the potential benefits of adding a fourth trophic level (detritivores) to Integrated Multi-Trophic Aquaculture systems. In addition, this project will focus on developing aquaponics into a marine model – ‘maraponics’.

FISHERIES Through the Fisheries research group, the AFDC has been awarded several Marine Institute-funded projects to investigate the dynamics of a number of commercial fisheries of interest, including the black scabbardfish (Aphanopus carbo), and the Dublin Bay prawn (Nephrops norvegicus). Research has focussed on improving

management practises and modelling fisheries dynamics. These projects draw on the ethos of a ‘holistic approach to fisheries management’ which aims to take into account the uncertainty involved in a species removal at one level of the ecosystem and how this will offset the “balance” at another level. Inherent in this approach to fisheries management is the complexity involved in managing for multispecies removal in capture fisheries. Ultimately, this will lead to more robust fisheries policies and a more economicallysound industry in the future.

AQUACULTURE SUPPORTS NEEDED Seafood currently accounts for over 20% of the global requirement for animal protein. And although capture fisheries have remained relatively static in recent years, evidence suggests that several major commercial fisheries are in decline. Global aquaculture, by contrast, is the fastest growing animal food production sector. However, production in Ireland and Europe is static so supports need to be put in place to allow the industry to respond to current consumer demands. One particular project, Euroshell (EU FP7 funded), specifically aims to bridge the gap between science and industry to support the European marine mollusc production sector. As demand for sustainably produced seafood products from both wild and cultured sources continues to grow, the AFDC hopes to evolve to support industry in meeting these demands.

Specialist Service Provision â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the story of how one company evolved Ian Armstrong was talking to a highly experienced Safety Manager yesterday who started to work for a salmon farming company after many years of driving by on his way to another job. He told me how wonderful it was to work in such a fascinating and rapidly developing industry, and that he had had simply no idea that such opportunities existed in his local community. We moved on to discuss the opportunity for specialist service providers to assist with the sustainable farming of the oceans in the years to come. The judicious use of technology has allowed humans to develop many industries, and fish farming is no different. And yet the basic tenet of customer service remains as important today as it always has been. It is all about people.

So how do service companies evolve? Well, let me tell you the story about Aquatic Concept Group by way of one example. I first encountered the founder, Elvin Bugge, at Aqua Nor 1995 when I was searching for a sustainable solution for low level Listeria contamination at my salmon processing factory. Elvin is an industrial chemist who bought into a chemical purchasing franchise in Norway in 1986. Because Aco Kjemi was based in Trondheim he quickly became acquainted with the salmon processing factories located on Froya and Hitra. Appreciating the challenges of cleaning salmon oil in a cold environment he developed and launched an improved range of cleaning detergents. With this success came the demand to improve the means of dispensing these specialist detergents. Hygiene Teknikk was formed to design, fabricate, install and service the centralised cleaning systems based on the needs of the

hygiene operators. This company has now evolved to collaborative hygiene design work with leading manufacturers such as Baader and Marel. Food safety and biosecurity are similar. Aqua Pharma was created to sell one of the leading disinfectants in the Norwegian market, Aqua Des. All disinfectants used to clean aquaculture facilities in Norway are approved by the Norwegian Medicines Agency who validate the correct dose strength and duration. This means that the fish farmer, health biologist or veterinarian can rely on independent verification for dispensing their chosen disinfectant. In 2009 due to the success of this approach we (by this time I had joined Aquatic and become responsible for international development) were asked by Solvay if we could become their development partners to launch Paramove, their Hydrogen Peroxidebased treatment for marine ectoparasites.

Using the expertise within Aqua Pharma and Hygiene Teknikk we have successfully used Paramove in the majority of the salmon farming countries. Earlier this year it obtained its Marketing Authorisation from the Irish Medicines Board for use in Ireland. The photograph provides an interesting context. It was taken in 2009 when I was on board a modern wellboat undertaking a pilot project in Norway to treat salmon. The site vessel in the distance is heading to install full enclosure tarpaulins onto these 157m cages. The operational leader of that operation joined Aqua Pharma in 2012, and he is rapidly developing new and interesting technology by working in collaboration with other specialists. By working together as a team of different specialists with common Aquatic purpose we have proven to our salmon farming customers that we can successfully support their on-going development.

Aquaculture UK continues to grow David Mack quaculture UK is the premier aquaculture exhibition and conference event in the UK and Ireland. Since bookings opened in early March, more than 80% of exhibitor space has already been taken up for the 2014 show – a hugely positive indicator of the high level of confidence in this event.

Having listened carefully to exhibitor and visitor feedback, the organisers are determined that Aquaculture UK 2014 will prove to be a memorable and worthwhile experience for visitors and exhibitors alike. A 60m by 30m rigid marquee is being erected to house exhibitors, and an adjacent outdoor display will provide ample room for visitors to comfortably move around and view the wide variety of equipment and vessels on display. While over 100 companies exhibited and 1,000 delegates attended Aquaculture UK 2012, organisers are confident that these figures will be exceeded in 2014. The growing international standing of the event is borne out also by the fact that 26 nationalities attended in 2012. A scientific conference is being organised alongside the main exhibition in

Pancrease Disease - light at the end of the tunnel, a success story for Ireland’s salmon industry Dr Marian McLoughlin MVB PhD MRCVS. RCVS Specialist in Fish Health & Production ancreas Disease (PD) of Atlantic salmon has been a major constraint on the farmed salmon sector from the earliest days of fish farming in Ireland. For many years the cause was unknown but, by close collaboration between the fledgling industry and veterinary scientists, and after many hours of data collection, sampling and testing, the salmon pancreas disease virus (SPDV) was eventually isolated in 1993 at DARD’s Veterinary Laboratory in Belfast. It was shown to cause PD, and early experiments also demonstrated that vaccination could reduce infection and disease in salmon populations already infected.

As PD was seen as mainly an Irish problem and as fish viral vaccines were in their infancy it proved very difficult to procure further funding for more research. However, despite the small market value at the time, a large animal vaccine company agreed to take on vaccine development, and much of the early vaccine trials were carried out in Ireland, thanks to the cooperation of many Irish salmon producers. PD re-emerged as a serious threat to the Irish and European salmon industry in 20034, when the number of cases recorded in Scotland and Norway increased dramatically.

Aquaculture & Seafood Ireland

HOLISTIC

APPROACH

Vaccine development had to be fasttracked to assist in controlling this potentially bankrupting disease. The first licensed PD vaccine in Europe was introduced to the Irish industry in 2009. Between 2003 and 2008 the average PD-related mortality in Ireland was 15.2%. Since then 55-65% of the total smolt input in Ireland has been PD-vaccinated in freshwater, and by 2012 PD mortality was down to 0.1-4%, the lowest recorded level in twelve years. This is the result of an holistic approach to infectious and parasitic disease control: fallowing; all-in-all-out single generation stocking; vaccination; synchronised lice treatments; improved smolt size and quality at sea transfer; optimising nutrition and environmental factors; and, importantly, reducing stress – the major trigger for clinical disease. During vaccination it is important to adhere to best practice by ensuring that all fish are vaccinated correctly, and that 100% of the population are treated. Herd immunity is very important in reducing the amount of virus shed by infected populations. This means too that all sites in a catchment area should be vaccinated. If PD losses are significantly reduced there may be a temptation to stop vaccination. This

would be short-sighted however as the PD virus is resident in the marine environment and will reemerge to cause disease in unprotected fish.

ROOM FOR COMPLACENCY

As a resu lt of the pioneering work by the Irish industry, a PD Tri-Nation Forum was set up in Galway in 2004 involving industry, scientists and policy makers from Ireland, Scotland and Norway to advance our knowledge of PD and to control it. This ensures that knowledge gaps are filled and excellent applied research completed to help inform decision making and reduce the risk and impact of PD. A paper published recently by the National Veterinary Institute in Norway has reported reduced PD outbreaks, shorter disease outbreaks, reduced overall mortality and a reduced number of discards at harvest. PD is coming under control and there appears to be light at the end of the tunnel. Nevertheless, complacency must not be allowed to set in. Viruses never go away you know!

TMC COMMERCIAL leading the way in recirculation technology here is no doubt that when it comes to the successful production or holding of aquatic organisms good water quality is paramount. Traditional flow-through systems which rely on an external water source are always susceptible to temperature and dissolved oxygen fluctuation. These systems are also prone to parasites and harmful algal blooms which can threaten the health of aquatic animals.

Recirculation technology has been around for a number of years, and is now widely accepted as the way forward to ensuring optimum water quality, particularly during the hatchery stage of production. Water re-use generally means reduced pumping costs, and better control of temperature and organic loading. A complete recirculating system incorporating synthetic sea salt also means that culture facilities can be set up in any location, with no concern for the inconsistent quality of the external water source. The concept behind TMC Commercialâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s recirculating systems is based on systematically filtering the water using a series of mechanical, physical, biological and

chemical processes before delivering each tank with an independent supply of clean, UV treated water. TMC Commercialâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s complete systems can be installed within a few hours and will achieve excellent levels of cosmetic acceptance. Fully customised systems and filtration components are also available.

Aquaculture & Seafood Ireland

Triskell Seafood Ltd.: Providing a complete service to the Aquaculture Sector riginally set up in the ‘90s, Triskell Seafood was established by French native Marie-Aude Danguy to sell Irish shellfish in France. By listening to the needs of her customers and suppliers and by constantly adapting to change in the Industry, Marie-Aude has developed her business to provide a complete service to the aquaculture sector. With great knowledge and understanding of the aquaculture market, combined with expertise in logistics and import/export, Triskell Seafood delivers a reliable and efficient service to an ever-growing number of suppliers and clients throughout Europe.

Maintaining its primary activity, Triskell Seafood trades live shellfish - mainly clams, winkles and Gigas and flat oysters in Ireland, UK, France, Holland, Spain, Portugal and Italy. Having consolidated connections with a strong core of suppliers and customers, Triskell Seafood chooses the right product for the right customer (from high-end quality to competitively-priced produce) to meet their specific requirements. “We are particularly proud of our commitment to quality service and our supplier and customer focus. And even though we work at a European level, we are delighted to meet with our contacts to be able to deliver a customised personal service,” Marie-Aude Danguy tells Aquaculture & Seafood Ireland. In order to satisfy the increasing demands from Irish growers looking for oyster seed, Triskell Seafood also supplies

Aquaculture & Seafood Ireland

Gigas seed from reliable hatcheries and nurseries. “Depending on the growers’ requirements, we can supply disease-free status seed or, for example, French triploids in early Spring,” explains MarieAude. To complete its service to shellfish farmers, Triskell Seafood also supplies the complete range of specialised aquaculture equipment for the Irish and UK Industry. To furthermore improve on quality and competitive pricing, Triskell Seafood is now manufacturing some of this equipment in Ireland. Marie-Aude: “As aquaculture activities are far greater on the continent, most manufacturers are based overseas. Originally, all equipment was imported from France and Spain, but with the sector growing in Ireland, it became obvious that we needed to work with Irish manufacturers. We are particularly pleased with the success of one of our new products, stainless steel hooks, which meet the exact demands of our customers while helping to provide jobs in Ireland”. Taking on board the queries and challenges faced by the farmers, Triskell Seafood is happy to recommend the latest technologies available and/or investigate how to solve particular problems and overcome obstacles. Triskell Seafood has evolved to become a major link between Irish growers and certain French producers who are interested in establishing operations in Ireland.

Depending on the individuals’ circumstances and needs, Triskell Seafood can organise the complete sale of a business or partnership where shellfish farmers may be sub-contracted to on-grow product for their French associates. This has proved to be very successful, and is a win-win situation for all parties. “Despite the ongoing challenges in our business such as oyster mortalities, licensing restrictions and delays the Irish Aquaculture industry has come a long way and has proven its ability to

Marie-Aude Danguy

produce top quality products that are in high demand. It is an industry that continues to attract interest and investment from abroad. When dealing with live products every year is different, and Triskell Seafood will continue to adapt, react and expand its services to the industry,” Marie-Aude concludes.

Bord Bia discovering huge market potential in Asia for quality Irish seafood he Irish seafood industry has been very successful in growing its export business into the Chinese market in the last number of years. China is currently the 13th most important export market for the sector in value terms - generating export sales of €7.7m in 2012 compared to just €2.87m in 2011 - a 169% increase in value terms in that period.

Export sales to Hong Kong in the same period grew by 59% in value terms to reach €2.57m. And although total seafood exports to Japan were down 17% in 2012 (due predominently to a drop in mackerel sales as Irish processors diverted exports to other more lucrative markets such as Nigeria), Irish exports of premium shellfish to this market still showed very strong growth (383% in value terms compared to 2011) to reach sales of €1.8m. South Korea continues to be a very important market for Irish whelks - a market which grew by 12.5% in value terms in 2012 and generated export sales of €8.6m. South Korea is now the 11th most important market globally for Irish seafood exports followed by China in 13th position, Japan in 16th place and Hong Kong in 23rd position.

Aquaculture & Seafood Ireland

Notable successes have been secured with specialised seafood importers and distributors around China, Japan and Hong Kong. These are now sourcing a range of seafood from Irish companies – a trend reflected in the latest export figures which show that by the end of 2012, exports of shellfish to China had increased by 133% in value terms to reach €1.8m, and exports to Hong Kong had increased by 93% compared to 2011 to reach €2.6m.

AMBITIOUS

PLANS

Bord Bia has ambitious plans to further grow the share of Irish seafood into Asia and has a number of programmes in place to assist Irish seafood processors in identifying, profiling and targeting new customers willing to pay a premium for quality seafood. Bord Bia is working closely with these companies in targeting potential new customers in China, and will be encouraging them to visit the Ireland Stand and participate in a programme of one-to-one meetings with the Irish exhibitors. In addition, through the Bord Bia Fellowship Programme, Irish seafood companies have had an opportunity for a dedicated sales and marketing

resource based in the China market during the last number of years.

BORD BIA CHINA Through its trade development programme, Bord Bia China has been very successful in encouraging Chinese and Japanese customers to visit Ireland to meet with Irish seafood processors on a one-to-one basis. These itineraries have been very effective in generating new business for the sector as it provides Irish companies with the opportunity to demonstrate their facilities, and also allow time for product sampling. To date, Bord Bia has welcomed six customers to Ireland from Asia on customised itineraries and has plans to host an additional seven or eight in September as part of its sustainabilty conference ‘Our Food Our Future, Sustainability: The Bottom Line’. Consumption of aquatic products in Chia, at 16.5 million metric tons (compared to 7.56 million MT in 2000), represents 30% of the country’s total aquatic output, and at a growth rate of 5.71% is

growing significantly faster than overall output of aquatic products. Rising incomes in China and increased spending on dining out by Chinese consumers will further drive the pace of seafood consumption. Data shows rural consumers eating 5.36kg a year in 2011, compared to just 3.82kg in 2000. By contrast, the country’s urbanites were eating 14.62kg in 2011 compared to an average 10.34kg in 2010. In urban areas the percentage of seafood consumed outside the home rose from 14.70% to 21.49% between 2000 and 2011. In overall volume terms Chinese ate 3 million MT in 2011 outside the home, compared to 1.15 million MT in 2000, an average per-annum growth rate of 9%. Consumption at home amounted to 13.62 million MT, a significant jump on 7.83 million MT in 2000. Seafood prices have also been growing faster than China’s official consumer price index (CPI) and at an average annual rise of 5% between 2000 and 2011 have certainly outpaced price growth in other key food items counted in the CPI, such as vegetables and pork.

Marine Institute Continues to Support the Aquaculture Industry he Marine Institute continued to work successfully with the aquaculture industry, government departments and agencies, as well as research partners during 2012 carrying out monitoring, research and advice programmes in support of the finfish and shellfish sectors.

MONITORING Monitoring programmes conducted by Marine Institute scientists include: National Shellfish Biotoxin Monitoring Programme This programme—monitoring for the presence of naturally occurring phytoplankton toxins in shellfish and the analysis of seawater for the presence of toxin-producing phytoplankton—is designed to detect toxicity in shellfish growing areas before harvesting, thereby providing the necessary information to restrict the placement of toxic shellfish onto the market. 2012 marked the first full year in which chemical analyses were exclusively used in carrying out the National Biotoxin Monitoring Programme. These new analytical tests cover a wider range of regulated marine toxins and facilitate faster sample turnaround times. Very high concentrations of the shellfish toxin Azaspiracid were recorded in farmed shellfish during the summer months in 2012 leading to extensive and protracted closure of sites in the southwest.

Shellfish Microbiology The Marine Institute is the National Reference Laboratory (NRL) in Ireland for monitoring the bacteriological and viral contamination of bivalve shellfish. Bivalve filter-feeding shellfish can accumulate human pathogenic bacteria and viruses from sewage contaminated waters. Such shellfish represent a potential public health risk when consumed raw or only lightly cooked. The Institute coordinates the activities of national laboratories responsible for viral and bacteriological analyses of bivalve molluscs and works closely with the competent authorities (Sea-Fisheries Protection Authority and the Food Safety Authority of Ireland) and the shellfish industry to ensure that Irish shellfish are produced to the highest microbial standards and to prevent the occurrence of illness. National Residues Control Programme (Seafood Component) The Marine Institute has implemented the National Residues Monitoring Programme for aquaculture – as part of the overall national residues programme – for over thirteen years. This is carried out on behalf of the Sea Fisheries Protection Authority (SFPA), which is the responsible organisation for residue controls on farmed finfish. In 2012, in excess of 759 tests for 1,596 substance

determinations were carried out on 169 samples of farmed finfish for a range of residues, including banned and unauthorised substances, various authorised veterinary treatments, and environmental contaminants. For the seventh year running, no non-compliant results were reported from the national monitoring programme for farmed finfish in 2012, continuing the welcome trend demonstrating an absence of residues over the last seven years.

National Sea Lice Monitoring Programme Regular inspection of sea lice levels on all fish farms in Ireland are carried out by the Marine Institute in accordance with the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine's Sea Lice Monitoring Protocol (2000) and Strategy (2008). All stocks of fish are inspected by Marine Institute Inspectors on 14 occasions throughout the year. Lice levels are measured against treatment trigger levels set out in the protocol. Where sea lice levels are higher than defined treatment trigger farms are instructed to treat to reduce levels. During 2012, 254 sea lice inspections were carried out on 23 active salmonid (salmon and trout) rearing sites. Monthly reports on the monitoring results were circulated to interested parties and all the 2012 data is published in the annual report. Fish Health Inspections and monitoring of movements of fish and shellfish stocks as required

under the EU Fish Health Directive. In 2012, over 3,000 finfish (primarily Salmon, but also carp, rainbow trout, Arctic char, pike and other coarse fish) were tested for pathogens either under health surveillance programmes following the submission of diagnostic samples to the laboratory, or as a result of screening tests carried out for the aquaculture industry. Ireland remains free of listed finfish diseases. 9,000 molluscs and crustaceans were tested for the presence of disease, primarily focused on surveillance of the herpes virus (OsHV-1 µvar) in Pacific oysters. The virus was detected in a further three bays, bringing the total of positive bays in Ireland to 26. The entire coastline, with the exception of eight bays, is considered free from Bonamia ostreae. A robust, accredited quality system (ISO 17025) underpins the delivery of many of these programmes.

RESEARCH The MI carry out applied research (national and EU funding) in support of the delivery of monitoring programmes and to inform and direct future regulatory requirements. A number of multi-annual projects, with national and international research partners, were ongoing or nearing completion during 2012: • GilPat and AquaPlan— addressing fish health issues relating to the Irish finfish aquaculture sector. • Prevent Escape (www.preventescape.eu) — quantifying the level and impact of escapes from

Aquaculture & Seafood Ireland

Fisheries Protection Authority (SFPA); the Department of Environment, Community and Local Government; the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA); National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS); and industry and research partners. The Institute provides scientific advice in support of the aquaculture industry, as follows: farmed finfish sites, and to develop strategies for their reduction. • Bivalife (www.bivalife.eu) — providing knowledge related to pathogens infecting oysters and mussels and developing practical approaches for the control of infectious diseases affecting these animals. • ASTOX II—providing further answers regarding the toxicology of this shellfish toxin. A research cruise along the southern and western coasts in August for the first time used molecular methods to map the distribution of the causative species Azadinium spinosum in coastal waters. • ASIMUTH (www.asimuth.eu)

—developing forecasting products using physical models, satellite and in situ data to provide early warning of blooms to allow fish and shellfish farmers to modify their culture and harvesting strategies in order to reduce potential losses. • A range of other projects, at MSc and PhD level, in shellfish microbiology, marine chemistry and fish health.

THE UNSEEN ENEMY Chris Mitchell and Rob Sinnot of Pharmaq Ltd nyone with a background in the Life Sciences will at sometime have come across Aflatoxin, a metabolite produced by the Aspergillus genus of moulds which has been well documented as the cause of fatal poisoning in both farm animals and humans following ingestion of contaminated food, with peanuts and maize the most common route of uptake.

Perhaps less widely known is the abundance and variety of similar so-called Mycotoxins and their often less dramatic, but nevertheless detrimental, effects on organisms that have ingested them. Animal nutritionists understand well the toxic actions of these fungal metabolites - some examples of which are included in the table below. Mycotoxin

Toxic activity

Aflatoxin B1

Carcinogenic / immunosuppressive

Ochratoxin A

Carcinogenic / nephrotoxic / immunosuppressive

Fumonasin B1

Carcinogenic / neurotoxic

Zearalenone

Estrogenic

Trichothecenes

dermatoxic

T-2 toxins

Immuno-suppressive

Whilst much of the research to date has focussed on the impact on farm animals by mycotoxins they have ingested in their feed, some interesting and illuminating studies have emerged over the last decade into the effects that these toxins can have on cultured fish exposed to contaminated feed. By way of example Hooft et al (2010) demonstrated a significant reduction in appetite, weight gain and feed conversion efficiency in rainbow trout exposed to DON (deoxynivalenol, a trichothecene mycotoxin found in wheat, barley oats and maize). Presenting these results at the International Symposium on Fish Nutrition in Molde, Norway, in 2012, Hooft concluded that rainbow trout are highly sensitive to DON - even at levels as low as 1 ppm. So how can fish farmers defend their stocks against the stealth threat posed by mycotoxin contaminants in feed? PHARMAQ UK recently entered into an arrangement with an exciting and innovative French company, Olmix, which has developed a novel and naturally-derived additive that can be applied to feeds as a protection against unwanted contaminants. Olmix’s unique solution to this problem has been developed by combining specific extracts of seaweeds with Montmorillonite clay (Amedéite®) sourced locally to their premises in Brittany. The innovative combination of algal extracts and this fine clay creates a product that is extremely effective in the adsorption of mycotoxins.

Known as MTX+, this product already has a ten-year track record in terrestrial livestock production where demand continues to grow. By adsorbing mycotoxins in the intestine MTX+ significantly lowers the availability of these molecules for absorption into the animal. Intestinal integrity is thus preserved, and immunosuppression, a hallmark of mycotoxin toxicity, is avoided. Its application to aquaculture was heralded in 2011 in a trial on farm-raised tilapia in Viet Nam. As well as a modest improvement in FCR, fish that had MTX+ added to their diet showed an 8.5% improvement in daily weight gain over the control group. Early days indeed, but with 25% of global crops estimated to be currently affected by mycotoxins and increasing pressure to include more grain-derived material in fish diets, greater attention will have to be focussed on the raised potential for microbial contamination by mycotoxin-producing organisms in fish diets. This is a challenge not only because these molecules are quite difficult to detect, but also because they are also robust and can persist as contaminants even if the source mould has been removed. In addition, it has been suggested that because mycotoxin production by moulds is often a defence mechanism, the very interventions which are applied to limit mould infestation of grains in storage (heat, humidity reduction and some fungicides) can actually encourage the production of these metabolites! Through the inclusion of a naturally-derived and formulated mycotoxin binder such as MTX+ into the feed of fish, especially during their early life history, health managers can at least be sure that they are giving the stocks under their care the best start, free of these pernicious stealth toxins. For further information on how MTX+ might contribute to your stock health management strategy please contact Chris Mitchell on +44 (0) 7769 330540 or chris.mitchell@pharmaq.no

Loughs Agency Marine Monitoring Barry Fox The Loughs Agency operates an extensive programme of marine monitoring to inform the sustainable management of shellfish resources in Lough Foyle and Carlingford Lough. The data collected has many uses and has been utilised by other agencies, academia, environmental and fisheries consultants and the public. he Agency has been intensively monitoring the environmental conditions in the sea loughs since 2004 using in-situ instrumentation procured under funding from the INTERREG IIIa Programme. Every 15 minutes these systems record water temperature; salinity; dissolved oxygen; turbidity and fluorescence. This information complements analytical sampling programmes and contributes towards the construction of ecosystem models of the sea loughs to aid in the sustainable management of shellfish aquaculture and fisheries.

Dredge

The Agency also conducts annual oyster stock assessments in Lough Foyle where the native oyster fishery is recognised as one of the last remaining wild fisheries in Europe. Landings have varied over the last 25 years and a boom-and-bust production cycle is evident in these trends. This is likely to be attributable to heavy fishing pressure, variability in spawning and spatfall success and lack of management. An independent scientific assessment of the fishery by CEFAS in 2006 and 2007 concluded that the fishery was suffering from

Camera sled

overfishing and would benefit from regulation. Regulation was introduced in 2008 and has resulted in a considerable reduction in fishing effort. The number of fishing vessels has reduced from over 100 vessels fishing up to 7 days a week prior to regulation to less than 60 in recent years. Fishing is now limited to the period September 19 - March 31 between 06:00 and 18:00 on weekdays only. The results of the annual stock assessment show an increasing trend in the proportion of larger oysters in the stock and a more normal population structure compared to immediately pre-regulation. Spawning stock biomass is gradually improving as is overall stock biomass, and spawning has been successful in 2010 and 2011. The Agency now hopes to implement some of the recommendations for habitat improvement and reinstatement works

suggested by CEFAS and the authors of the annual stock assessments. The Agency is the lead partner on the INTERREG IVA IBIS Project which links aquatic resource management in Northern Ireland, Scotland and Ireland, and is providing seventy years of applied research on marine and freshwater topics. The results of this research will help inform the management and development of these resources into the future. The Agency compiles annual status reports for Lough Foyle and Carlingford Lough which detail all our monitoring work and also provides a review of any statutory monitoring programmes that may be of particular interest to stakeholders. These Status Reports are available on the Agencyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s website www.loughs-agency.org

Fusion Marine’s new Ortac system to revolutionise oyster cultivation in Ireland Based on the West coast of Scotland, Fusion Marine Ltd has a global reputation as a leading supplier of equipment for the aquaculture sector, with a particular focus on robust and versatile fish farm pens renowned for their quality and design excellence. anufactured from tough polyethylene and available in a variety of different formats and specifications, the Fusion Marine range of fish farm pens (Aquaflex, Oceanflex and Triton) have been utilised successfully in some of the world’s harshest marine environments, and are widely used by the salmon farming industries in Scotland and Ireland.

In an exciting new development, Fusion Marine is continuing this proud

tradition of serving the aquaculture sector through the supply of the innovative Ortac Oyster Farming System which has the potential to bring immense benefits to Irish shellfish farmers. Developed by Jersey-based shellfish farmer Tony Legg, Ortac dramatically reduces labour costs compared to conventional oyster bags and trestles. Already in use with great success in the Channel Islands, Fusion Marine is now bringing the system to Ireland after being appointed supplier

and support company. Ortac is purposely-moulded and built in two halves that clip together onto a simple trestle to make a single unit whose re-usable and stackable design makes them particularly easy to transport and store. Ortac was designed to enable oyster farmers to grow both Pacific (Crassostrea gigas) and European Native (Ostrea

edulis) oysters inter-tidally. It features a unique forced upwelling flow system that mirrors low farming densities but within a small container that improves growth rates without compromising shell quality. This forced up-welling flow system means that the Ortacs don't require as much manual handling as the more conventional methods because the units are always moving. Ortac has the potential to combine different parts of the aquaculture industry within Integrated Multi-Trophic Aquaculture (IMTA) systems to achieve a greater natural balance in the management of water areas. “We believe that Ortac has the potential to revolutionise the way in which oysters are cultivated in Ireland,” says Rhuaraidh Edwards, development engineer for Fusion Marine. Oyster farmers keen to learn more about Ortac should contact Rhuaraidh Edwards at Fusion Marine, details at www.fusionmarine.com

Is recirculation the way forward for Ireland’s freshwater fin fish sector? Joe Higgins, Technical & Sales Director with Veolia Water Ireland, a subsidiary of Veolia Water, a leading global specialist provider of technological solutions in water treatment, outlines the advantages of their Recirculating Aquaculture system (RAS®) key goal of the aquaculture industry in Ireland for the future is to to ensure an ample supply of juvenile fish (smolts) by constructing larger hatcheries within limited footprints.

However, one of the major issues with the construction of larger plants is the availability of freshwater resources. On a pro-rata basis each fish requires the same amount of water to develop albeit in a large or small system and in many cases the water supply and physical footprint is the limiting factor for expansion. In an expanding industry therefore one of the challenges will be to exploit the existing freshwater resources effectively with limited space. In order to meet this challenge Veolia Water has developed the Recirculating Aquaculture System (RAS®) to recycle water in aquaculture facilities. The RAS® process reduces water consumption by up to 99% compared with traditional

hatcheries, and also permits a higher stocking density. As a result, the RAS process has been successfully installed in numerous facilities worldwide. In Ireland salmon and trout breeding plants are based mainly on ‘flow-through systems’ in which water is used only once. In such systems the water is abstracted, treated to a very limited extent, and has a retention time of approximately one hour. As abstracted water quality can vary dramatically, operational stability can be difficult to sustain. Variation in abstracted water quality can also have a negative effect on the ability of fry to grow. In the RAS process the water quality is stabilised and consistent thereby allowing high quality fry to thrive before being transferred to marine fish farms. Client feedback indicates that fry is of a superior quality when bred in the

RAS process. In the RAS process a moving biomass is in continual circulation, which prohibits the enrichment of unwanted material. The RAS solution enables the reuse of process water in fish-breeding facilities and gives an extended dwell time for the stable production of temperature with minimal input of energy. With regard to external threats such as sea lice, it is far more beneficial for the fry to spend less time in the seacages and more time in the RAS onshore facilities. Veolias’ goal in the design of the RAS process was to increase the weight limit for fry by a kilo and allow the growth of fish to be enhanced in a sheltered and controlled environment. The RAS process has been proven to increase both the quantity and weight of the fish in the system.

Veolias’ sustainable RAS solution is designed to increase productivity and profitability whilst providing a reduced environmental impact by reducing both Carbon and Water footprint of aquaculture facilities. RAS reduces water consumption in Aquaculture industry, while removing organic matter, ammonium, Nitrogen, suspended solids, CO2 and harmful bacteria/virus and simultaneously optimising pH and alkalinity, thereby allowing a wide variety of species to thrive including cold water, tropical, fresh and salt water. Productivity increases of up to 30% have been documented and attributed to the RAS system, in addition to a decrease in fish mortality by 50% whilst increasing fish density by up to a factor of 500.
