Another success for Aquaculture without Frontiers

by Roel Schoenmaker, Senior Account Manager, VIV Worldwide

With great pleasure I look back at VIV Asia 2019, the largest international trade show from Feed to Food in Asia that took place last March 13-15th in Bangkok, Thailand.


This booming exhibition - which reaches its visitor public far beyond South East Asia - provides a major platform offering opportunities to professionals in the animal protein industry. This includes aquaculture. Specifically, the production of fish and shrimp.
 


For fish farmers, the Aquatic Pavilion at VIV Asia and, in general, the show floor already displays all innovations in the field of pharmaceuticals and feed ingredients and additives for fish and shrimp production.

My plans for the future editions of VIV Asia are set to create additional space for displaying fish farming equipment such as aerators, nets, rubber ponds, recirculation systems, filters and pumps and more. All for building and managing modern aquaculture farms.

My personal journey in the field of aquaculture has only been a little over three years. In this relatively short period, I have already seen entrepreneurs with great passion for creating sustainable innovations for this world.

Their enthusiasm strengthens my commitment to bring the aquaculture sector further within VIV. It is satisfying to see what was already achieved in 2019 at VIV Asia with the third edition of Aquatic Asia.

The conference ‘Aquatic Asia 2019’ was organised on the second day of VIV Asia thanks to a synergetic cooperation between VIV worldwide, International Aquafeed and Fish Farming Technology magazine and Progressus.

Presenting a one-day conference programme featuring international experts in shrimp-farming nutrition and technology addressing quality, safety, the environment and new technologies. This event brought ten speakers - from academia and industry - together with a highly interested audience of over one hundred people to discuss the science, technology and commercial aspects of shrimp farming. The speakers presented a wide range of developments in this rapidly growing field.
