The TecRede project aims to generate technologies that would, in a short period of time, the development of tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) cultivation in cage systems. The project chose the tambaqui to foment the development of cage fish farming since it is a fish native to Amapá, which has favorable domestic and international market demand, with production absorption capacity. The research network intends to determine the standardization of techniques and production systems based on Good Pr

River and may represent a methodological advance in the study of models of distribution of species of the ichthyofauna in the Eastern Amazon, in addition to assisting the management of this aquatic ecosystem and water resources, by public agencies. Parasitic diseases can be considered one of the factors that threatens fish populations in a natural environment, since parasites can actively act in the destruction of the communities of these animals, affecting the relative abundance of different

This project is a result of the demands made by the farmers from the Rio Capim Pole (the counties of Irituia, Concórdia do Pará, Mãe-do-Rio and São Domingos do Capim), which are involved in fish farming. This pole is characterized by the existence of group actions done by farmers and local institutions, which have the goal to strengthen the balance between family farming and environmental preservation (agroecology), the fish farming being part of this context as an expanding productive system. T ...

The project consists of studying the parasitic communities of fish species such as catfish and scales fish in the Amazon River system. The main points of analysis are the description of these parasitic communities, description of new species and checking whether the size of the host fish has an influence on the abundance of these parasites, their diversity, seasonal variation and their dispersion in the fish. The parasitic communities of different species of fish will be compared, as well as

This project proposes the adaptation and improvement of technologies for the intensive polyculture of tambaqui and shrimp in recirculation system and its integration with the production of vegetables in an ecological based system through the use of waste for the generation of biofertilizer and organic compounds. The project seek through technical-scientific experiments to adapt and develop technologies for the intensive cultivation of tambaqui and Amazon shrimp in a system of water recirculat

This project proposes to evaluate and adapt technologies to integrate the intensive cultivation of tambaqui in a recirculation system to produce vegetables through the use of residual waters technology and the use of effluents. The technology diffusion activities have the partnership of extension agents from PESCAP (Amapá Fisheries Agency) and RURAP (Amapá Rural Development Institute) and producers. As results, it is expected to: 1) Strengthen institutional relations between Embrapa Amapá an ...

The fish processing industry consumes a lot of water. This consumption depends on the species being processed, food processing techniques/methods and scale of operation. This project aims to study the water flow in fish industries and to determine the minimum consumption of water required for processing of the main salt-water and freshwater species that are industrialized in Brazil. The strategy is based on three pillars: conscious/rational use of water, better utilization of fish, and use of
