Trappeto Fish-Farm (Mariculture)

The "mariculture" is that branch of the "acquacoltura" allows to grow up the fish directly in the natural habitat.

The farm systems are constituted of floating or submersible cages and they are maded in various tipologies, a few can resist in the storms better and can be used in protect marine areas, like bays and fjords, instead the off-shore cages are installed far from the coast. The submersible system allow the cage immersion until the right depth reducing the wave impact agains the installation. The most important benefits are the safety of the building and the fish stress-removal, the removing out of the nets, of extraneous organisms like kelps.

The farm system is composed of:
- FACTORY
- OFFSHORE CAGES
The factory is a building where the main operations of work are maded,  for a good result. Inside the building you can find different working-areas: - the zone where the fish is manufactured and the cashing zone, where the fish is stored, packaged and iced in particular plastic-boxes, the equipment-warehouse, the nourishment-store and all the uphold- framework - the veterinaries office and the administrative and managerial offices.

The off-shore cages system are composed of a net, firmly fastened at an hexagonal massive structure, with different floataging-levels: one for the normal fishing actions and one for the upkeeping-actions and maintenance.

In the higher part there is the food-distribution controlled by a computer, that stock the ideal food-measure for the fishes, following a settled food-program determined by the number of fishes into the box, the temperature of waters and the size of the fish. When forecast expect bad-weather and therefore wavy-sea, the air is removed, by an electronic system, so the cage goes partially under-water for a good reaction at the waves.
