Evaluation of Puberty Onset in Salmon Breeders
Evaluation of Puberty Onset in Salmon Breeders
We conduct assessments using high-quality ultrasound imaging to detect the onset of puberty in breeders of various salmon species.
By applying advanced techniques, we establish qualitative and quantitative parameters to identify early maturity development in males and females.
Benefits
Early Maturity Identification
Detects puberty in salmon early.
Reduction of Production Losses
Minimizes losses in the production process.
Resource Optimization
Efficient use of resources and management of breeders.
Better Planning of the Production Cycle
Enables efficient adjustments to the production cycle.

How We Do It
Before using ultrasound to assess puberty onset in salmon breeders, we developed correlations between qualitative and quantitative ultrasound parameters to evaluate puberty in different fish species.
However, these methods are often invasive, costly, and slow, making them impractical for widespread use.
We built these correlations from a large volume of data and situations, which allowed us to establish detailed procedures for sampling and data analysis.
Preparation
