Consideration of resources for sustainable management
1.Reduction of fish meal for feed
Conservative fish feed for aquaculture contains a lot of fish meal. Kurose Suisan engages to reduce usage of fish meal for feed to relieve pressure of natural resources. It is still necessary to add some amount of fish meal for feeding, but we are tackling to reduce the usage gradually to relieve the pressure further.
2.Full artificial seeding production
A majority of the farmed Yellowtail fish in Japan has grown up from wild caught juveniles. Kurose Suisan harvested Buri grown from artificial seedlings for the first time in 2009, and gradually increased the amount. Finally, we have been able to farm Buri completely from artificial seedlings since 2022. Kurose Suisan has been able to ship it stably since we developed the method to collect roe to secure fertilized eggs consistently.
