Aquaculture techniques: a production forecasting model for aquaculture systems. Research technical completion report, A-063-IDA Item Info

Computer implementation of the mathematical models of quantitative relationships in aquaculture systems is a dynamic process which provides a conceptual framework for understanding systems behavior. These models can provide useful information on variable significance to systems functioning, thereby directing research resources into areas which will most benefit further understanding of the system. Furthermore, as aquaculture systems research progresses, the composite model can be modified to incorporate new technology. Modeling, therefore, is a cyclic process -- a means for understanding the system, for evaluating the system, and for using the model to incorporate the new technology. This computer-implemented mathematical model addresses one of the significant limitations of aquaculture systems management, namely, production forecasting, by providing a method of using current technology to predict Allowable Growth Rate (AGR). The use of the model in aquaculture operations could aid production forecasting, resulting in more efficient water usage and profitable aquaculture systems operations.
