Previous: SELMUS-738777 (SME Instr. 2, BG). In the market, 5.500 m2 harvesting
ReSHEALience-760824 (NMBP). Study of the real durability under micro-cracked State in aggresive env.
It’s proving to be a very good tool.
Rationale: Make use of this resilient, durable and affordable infrastructurefor open water farming and towards
other BG sectors.
8 modules (long-termproposal), 5 countries, 3 EU-basins
Core demonstration activity
Specific objectives-related activities
A A long-line produces ≈ 12 kg/m2: modules up to 50 kg/m2. This has a major impact in the areas currently exploited with long-line + unexploited areas.
B Reduction of operational costs using the modules may imply ↑ profit for farmers between 10% and 25% depending on the region.
C The modules will end with loss of harvest due to predatory. This will activate investments for some high-value shellfish products in Mediterranean.
D Increase of the open waters farming in North+Baltic sea, boosting productivity + reducing eutrophication. ↑ social awareness as environm measure.
E Modules will activate new business models: Cooperative share for micro-business, agro-tourism, sea-gardens or blue restaurants of fresh shellfish.
F Increase of the number of farmers using standardized, CE-marked tool with for shellfish farming.
G Increase of production + quality will imply a higher access of society to sustainable protein-rich food from EU with affordable prices+locally farmed.
H Faster progress of blue economy (mainly ocean energy, desalinization and aquaponics), thanks to the learning in versatile modules for open waters.
I Increase of maritime surveillance and removal of obstacles for navigation (long-lines), which distribution is not always planned.
