Feeding technology – Akvasmart Feed System is standard Your Aquaculture Technology and Service Partner

Feeding technology – Camera systems are standard Your Aquaculture Technology and Service Partner

FCR improvements with feeding cameras • You can only see 0,2 - 7% of the cage volume (underwater) • Feeding cameras hang at 5- 10m below fish eating area – looking straight upwards for sinking uneaten pellets • Prevents overfeeding (wasting feed and polluting the site) • Prevents underfeeding (lost growth) Your Aquaculture Technology and Service Partner 12 24.09.2016

Mort removal system • Improved fish health and bio- security • Fast and efficient mort removal every day • Reduced risk of predator attacks (sharks, seals) • Protects the environment (closed bottom option) • Accurate inventory records for full production control using Fishtalk Your Aquaculture Technology and Service Partner 13 24.09.2016

Iran’s great opportunity • Iran has the most freshwater resources and cage farming coastline in all of the Niksa / AKVA’s first farm Middle East • Qeshm Island will Qeshm Island likely be the aquaculture hub Your Aquaculture Technology and Service Partner

Iran has a unique position in the Middle East • 80 million people – highly educated and motivated workforce – No. 3 in the world for educating engineers – Potential for more than 100.000 jobs from aquaculture industry • High quality manufacturing facilities - Relatively low cost levels – Feed barges, work boats, cages, nets and moorings will be built in Iran sooner or later, but this will depend on market volume, quality, certification and production costs • World’s largest producer of trout (140.000 tons/year – land based) – Aquaculture already a known industry in Iran ready for expansion!

Land Based Projects (Focus on RAS) Your Aquaculture Technology and Service Partner

Why land based? It all starts on land: • Broodstock • Hatchery • Nursery • Pre-ongrowing Your Aquaculture Technology and Service Partner

Growing for market? Cage farming Fry system Land based Your Aquaculture Technology and Service Partner

Going for modern technology? Your Aquaculture Technology and Service Partner

Why RAS ? • Optimal water temperature • Optimal oxygen saturation • Stable water parameters • Bio-secure system Arctic Char cross breed Your Aquaculture Technology and Service Partner

Modern technology today Your Aquaculture Technology and Service Partner

Heavy trend towards recirculation  Production of fish for on-growing in cages  Production of market size fish in RAS  More fish by using less water Your Aquaculture Technology and Service Partner

Why is land based so important? • A good start is halfway to success! • Grow big fish when they are small:  Small fish have high growth rates compared to large fish  Small fish are more sensitive than large fish  Large amount of small fish is always needed  The production planning depends on supply of small fish Your Aquaculture Technology and Service Partner

RAS status in Norway «In 2016 more than 50% of the 220 smolt systems will use RAS technology in one way or another to produce the total of 310 mill. smolt per year» Your Aquaculture Technology and Service Partner

RAS is increasing in the world • Large new projects – Norway – Finland – Scotland – Canada – The Middle East …..They are all in for RAS Your Aquaculture Technology and Service Partner
