Less fish and money losses
In a fish farm of 5,000 m2 and 4 meters deep 2,000 kilos of fish are placed in juvenile state. Six months later can be collected 30,000 kilos approximately of alive adult fish with the price of 1.50 USD per kilo. Product losses calculated are about 40% in number of animals usually due to preventable diseases that can be avoided if water quality is controlled.
Real-time monitoring at the fish farm could help to cut down the number of animals lost between 40% and 50%. That supposes collecting between 38,000 and 40,000 kilos instead of 30,000 with the same number of juvenile fish. The difference of turnover for each farm would be at least 12,000 USD every 6 months.
