AquaSearch SALT is all female material from 4 or 5 year old maturing brood stock. The strain is specifically selected for their superior growth rate, silvery exterior, saltwater tolerance and well pigmented muscle tissue.
This profile allows an efficient production of 3,5 kg or larger rainbow trout in the sea in less than three winters, without the risk of males maturing during the second winter.
The AquaSearch SALT product line is characterised by:
These features allow the advantage of flexible production cycle and planning with comfortable achievement of slaughter size before maturation becomes an issue. Low mortality in freshwater stage, as well as saltwater stage. Fast adaptation and resumption of feeding after saltwater transfer, with no emaciation of chronically IPN carriers. And last but not least cost effective production and high market value.
