Advantages of biofloc technology

·      Eco-friendly culture system.

·      It reduces environmental impact.

·      Improves land and water use efficiency

·      Limited or zero water exchange

·      Higher productivity (It enhances survival rate, growth performance, feed conversion in the culture systems of fish).

·      Higher biosecurity.

·      Reduces water pollution and the risk of introduction and spread of pathogens

·      Cost-effective feed production.

·      It reduces utilization of protein rich feed and cost of standard feed.

·      It reduces the pressure on capture fisheries ie., use of cheaper food fish and trash fish for fish feed formulation.
