Brazil is the fourth largest producer of tilapia in the world and in the coming years it will be the leader in the agribusiness of fish produced in continental waters, having mainly the use of natural water resources available in neotropical lakes and reservoirs that total approximately five thousand hectares available for the aquaculture sector. The potential environmental externalities …
Aquaculture is an activity that stands out in providing protein to a growing population. In this scenario, the estimated by 2030, 62% of the fish consumed worldwide will come from aquaculture, especially the Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) produced in cages in lakes and reservoirs, which only in the state of São Paulo is a 90% of fish farmers tilapia production. However, the lack of …
Currently, there is a growing trend towards sustainable food production, especially in aquatic environments where multiple uses present must be considered, so that water quality is preserved. In this context, all actors involved in the aquaculture activity should jointly define and implement environmentally responsible codes of conduct and practices aimed at optimizing the use of water re…

This project aims to develop a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) prototype with Technology Readiness Level (TRL) 5. An environmental monitoring system will be developed to support aquaculture production units, utilizing low-cost limnological and meteorological sensors capable of transmitting data via the Internet of Things (IoT) using the ESP32 microcontroller. The MVP will perform real-time m…
Numerous operational factors can impact the management of aquaculture businesses. Notably, the barriers to using technologies that promote more agile processes in the fish value chain are significant. Thus, applying mathematical models for predicting harvests has become one of the main approaches to assist managers in their financial operations and governance of their enterprises. In this…
The rapid expansion of aquaculture has raised concerns about environmental and economic externalities. The definition of modern methodologies for managing and measuring environmental externalities and potential ecosystem services from aquaculture enterprises are the main demands of managers and investors who have increasingly sought to implement Environmental, Social and Corporate Governa…
The environmental and economic externalities resulting from the rapid growth of aquaculture activity have raised concerns not only among consumers who are increasingly seeking ecologically correct foods, but have also attracted the attention of businesspeople, managers and investors in the aquaculture sector who demand new sources of sustainable monetization for your business. In this con…
Brazil is among the main tilapia producers in the world. Reliable information about the quality of the product, its nutritional properties and the certification of fish origin can facilitate the expansion of the national and international tilapia market. In this context, the aim of the present project is to develop an innovative protocol to identify the main bioprocesses and attributes of…

This research integrates economic and environmental data to assess the contributions of aquaculture practiced in lakes and neotropical reservoirs. The primary objective is to estimate economic impacts and identify key linkages that support sustainable development in these regions. The study applies an Economic Valuation Methodology, enhanced by researchers from the United States, to analy…
There is a growing concern in the consumer market about animal welfare. In response to these concerns, there has been increased pressure on the aquaculture industry to improve fish welfare. In aquaculture, especially in fish farms, daily handling can compromise welfare. Thus, the aim of this project is to create an animal welfare protocol for Brazilian tilapia based on the Welfare Quality…
