This five-day workshop shall provide hands-on practical training on all relevant aspects in relation to reproduction of European pikeperch (Sander lucioperca). Organized and hosted by Stefan Teerlinck (Inagro) and taught by skilled experts Daniel Żarski (Institute of Animal Reproduction and Food Research, PAS, Poland) and Uros Ljubobratović (Institute of Aquaculture and Environmental Safety MATE AKI, Hungary), supported by the experienced Inagro team (Edson, Laurens and Anne) this workshop will combine theoretical and practical classes from induction of reproduction to egg quality assessment until hatching of the larvae. Everything is well prepared by the experienced Inagro team making sure you will see and feel all steps, from injecting the fish to the larvae hatching the eggs. After this workshop, participants will be able to conduct, improve and standardize their own reproduction on farm level.
