 Land-based RAS systems are complex, fragile, and brimming with potential. There are millions of things that can (and often do) go wrong. At ReelData.AI, we want to ensure that you never have to think about feeding your fish. With our autonomous behavioural feeding system, we can ensure that your fish are perfectly fed, all the time, without the labour intensity of manually checking fish appetite.

 In our presentation, our CEO will walk through Autonomous Behavioural Feeding (ABF) and how it drastically changes land-based aquaculture’s profitability, consistency, and sustainability. While profitability will be mentioned, it will be spoken about in a more educational tone, as we want to explain how ABF reduces wasted feed and increases the rate at which the fish reach full maturity.

ABF is derived from a type of tech that is not new to aquaculture, pellet detection. Pellet detection tells farmers how hungry their fish are, but it doesn’t fix the problem. ABF, on the other hand, works with an AI algorithm to l earn how the fish’s appetite changes and integrates with the farms feeding system to automatically adjust feed rates significantly more often than even the most diligent farmer could handle in one day.

 With Autonomous Behavioural Feeding, you receive a m ultitude of benefits. From the financial benefits of reducing how much feed you waste, to the water quality improvement that comes from consistent feeding (versus over and underfeeding).

Let us introduce and educate the Aquaculture 2022 audience on the vast range of benefits that ABF can bring to an industry already brimming with potential!
