Applying Artificial Intelligence (AI) Techniques to Implement a Practical Smart Cage Aquaculture Management System

Abstract Purpose This paper presents our team’s results to establish an AIoT smart cage culture management system. Methods According to the built system, the farmed field information is transmitted to the data platform of Ocean Cloud, and all collected data and analysis results can be applied to the cage culture field after the bigdata analysis. Results This management system successfully integrates AI and IoT technologies and is applied in cage culture. Using underwater biological analysis images and AI feeding as examples, this paper explains how the system integrates AI and IoT into a feasible framework that can constantly acquire information about the health status of fish, survival rate of fish, as well as the feed residuals. Conclusion The results of our research enable the aquaculture operators or owners to efficiently reduce the feed residual, monitor the growth of fish, and increase fish survival rate, thereby increasing the feed conversion rate.

Abstract. Nugroho RA, Hardi EH, Sari YP, Aryani R, Rudianto. 2019. Growth performance and blood profiles of striped catfish (Pangasianodon hypophthalmus) fed leaves extract of Myrmecodia tuberosa. Nusantara Bioscience 11: 89-96. The application of plant extract in the aquaculture field is gaining momentum. This study aimed to determine the effects of M. tuberosa Jack leaves extract on the growth performance and blood profiles of striped catfish (Pangasianodon hypophthalmus). 400 fish with an initial average weight of 1.54 ± 0.02g were randomly divided into five groups and fed with different concentration of M. tuberosa Jack leaves extract (0.25, 0.5, 1, 2%) and control diet for 80 days. Growth performance, feed conversion rate, feed efficiency, survival rate, morphometric, and hematological profile of the fish were evaluated at the end of the trial. The results found that fish fed 0.5-1% concentration had significantly higher (P<0.05) growth, feed conversion rate, feed efficiency, morphometric value, survival, white blood cell, hemoglobin, neutrophil, lymphocyte, and monocyte than control. Meanwhile, supplementation of 2% MTE in the diet of fish reduced growth, feed utilization, viscerosomatic index, and morphometric values but increased red blood cell. All the supplemented diets decreased platelet of fish. The findings indicated that supplementation 0.5-1% of MTE is beneficial to the growth and blood profile of fish through the increment of growth indices, feed utilization, white blood cell, hemoglobin, neutrophil, lymphocyte, and survival rate of fish.

The study was conducted in order to find the astaxanthin content suitable for growth and color of Koi carp. The fish in the experiment with the length of 7.87 - 7.90cm and weight of 8.46–8.52g were set up in 4 treatments with 4 astaxanthin levels:0 mg (NT1), 55 mg (NT2), 65 mg (NT3), 75 mg /kg(NT4) food with 3 replicates. The results showed that environmental factors such as temperature, pH, N-NH3 and N-NO2 were within the suitable range for growth and color of Koi fish. Survival rate ranged from 46.67 to 66.67% (p> 0.05). Growth in length (15.26 - 15.55 cm) and weight (47.31 - 48.39 g) did not differ significantly between treatments (p> 0.05). Feed conversion ratio (FCR) between treatments was not different. The fish color index in NT3 was significantly higher than the others. Therefore, the content of 65 mg/ kg of food resulted in best color of Koi fish.

Fingerling sized fish seeds are always in great demand for any type of aquaculture operations. The paper highlights the results of a maiden study undertaken to popularise pond based cage culture for raising fingerling sized fish seed aimed at stocking quality fish fingerlings for augmenting fish production in the Garo Hills of Meghalaya. A farmer participatory study was undertaken for raising fry to fingerling sized fish seeds of 3 fish species viz., silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix), gonius (Labeo gonius) and common carp (Cyprinus carpio) in pond based cages during September-November 2011. Fry sized fishes of these species were reared in locally made bamboo-net cages (2 x 1.5 x 2 m) at different stocking densities. The primary objective was to increase the survival rate and observe the comparative growth rate of different species under varied stocking densities. A total of 18 cages were grouped under 3 stocking densities viz., 150, 250 and 300 fry m-3. Highest survival rate was observed at a stocking density of 150 fry m-3 for all the three species. Among the three species, silver carp demonstrated the highest survival rate at all the stocking densities. In terms of growth, better performance was observed with stocking density of 250 fry m-3 for all species.

The sustainability of the shrimp aquaculture depends largely on disease control and the health status of shrimp. Probiotics, which make shrimps healthier and more resistant to pathogens, are promising countermeasure for shrimp diseases. In this study, the effects of the marine purple non-sulfur photosynthetic bacterium (PNSB) Rhodovulum sulfidophilum on Marsupenaeus japonicus (kuruma shrimp) growth and survival were examined in 177 m2 aquaria (140 tons of water) for 70 days. The shrimp received feed containing 0.01 % fresh weight (106 colony forming unit/g) of R. sulfidophilum cells. The survival rate significantly improved (P < 0.001) (R. sulfidophilum-fed = 81.9 %; control = 71.5 %), the feed conversion rate improved (R. sulfidophilum-fed = 1.83; control = 2.11), and there was no difference in the shrimp average body weight. The approximate bacterial cell cost was $0.003 to $0.005 per 1 kg feed, indicating that the R. sulfidophilum approach is economically feasible and a promising candidate for probiotic bacteria in shrimp aquaculture.

AbstractThe aim of the study was to assess the effect of fermented dried soybean (FSBM) and/or fermented rapeseed meal (FRSM) in diets for weaned piglets on production results, nutrient digestibility, gastrointestinal tract histology, and the composition of the gut microbiota. Piglets in the control group received standard diets with soybean meal. Animals in all experimental groups received diets in which a portion of the soybean meal was replaced: in group FR—8% FRSM; in group FR/FS—6% FRSM and 2% FSBM; in group FS/FR—2% FRSM and 6% FSBM and in group FS—8% FSBM. The use of 8% FRSM or 6% FRSM and 2% FSBM in the piglet diets had a positive effect on average daily gains. Piglets from the FR and FR/FS groups had the highest feed conversion rate. Group FS/FR and FS piglets had significantly lower mortality and lower incidence of diarrhoea. Piglets fed a diet with the fermented components, in particular with 8% FRSM or 6% FRSM and 2% FSBM, exhibited a positive effect on the microbiological composition and histology of intestines, which resulted in improved nutrient digestibility coefficients (ATTD and AID).

Abstract Background The development and utilization of probiotics had many environmental benefits for replacing antibiotics in animal production. Bacteria in the intestinal mucosa have better adhesion to the host intestinal epithelial cells compared to bacteria in the intestinal contents. In this study, lactic acid bacteria were isolated from the intestinal mucosa of broiler chickens and investigated as the substitution to antibiotic in broiler production. Results In addition to acid resistance, high temperature resistance, antimicrobial sensitivity tests, and intestinal epithelial cell adhesion, Enterococcus faecium PNC01 (E. faecium PNC01) was showed to be non-cytotoxic to epithelial cells. Draft genome sequence of E. faecium PNC01 predicted that it synthesized bacteriocin to perform probiotic functions and bacteriocin activity assay showed it inhibited Salmonella typhimurium from invading intestinal epithelial cells. Diet supplemented with E. faecium PNC01 increased the ileal villus height and crypt depth in broiler chickens, reduced the relative length of the cecum at day 21, and reduced the relative length of jejunum and ileum at day 42. Diet supplemented with E. faecium PNC01 increased the relative abundance of Firmicutes and Lactobacillus, decreased the relative abundance of Bacteroides in the cecal microbiota. Conclusion E. faecium PNC01 replaced antibiotics to reduce the feed conversion rate. Furthermore, E. faecium PNC01 improved intestinal morphology and altered the composition of microbiota in the cecum to reduce feed conversion rate. Thus, it can be used as an alternative for antibiotics in broiler production to avoid the adverse impact of antibiotics by altering the gut microbiota. Graphic Abstract
