CERER-Pisciculture is a non-profit organisation involved in applied research, education and information dissemination in aquaculture. Specialized in farming and biology of freshwater fishes, we actively support new developments in aquaculture. Our researches focus on production systems (e.g. aquaponics, biofloc) and species diversification for consumption and restocking.
- AQUA 2024 Copenhaguen
CERER attended the annual conference of the EAS (European Aquaculture Society) to present its work on the environmental footprint of aquaponics production: ‘Environmental sustainability assessment of two contrasted pilot aquaponics productions (tilapia vs pikeperch) by life cycle assessment’. - Aquaponics at school
3rd year of aquaponics practicing at ARH, a secondary school located in Huy (Belgium). In partnership with CERER, science teachers are training our young aquaponists, aged 12 to 18. Given the success of this edition, a new session will be launched in 2024-2025. - POLYRAS: in 2024, CERER is developing a new aquaponic facility
This system, set up in a greenhouse, will support the development of new production models based on polyculture and the integration of seasonal variations in aquaponics. - Aquaponics : research report released (Aqualoci project, french version)
Setting up of a pilot indoor aquaponic system and monitoring the performance of two production models (tilapia and pike-perch) provided 5-year research results giving an agronomic, water, energy and economic assessment of this production system. - Walloon aquaculture facing climate change: let’s innovate!
