• Wittaya Aqua — Most aquaculture farms around the world use outdated paper- or spreadsheet-based production management systems to run their farm. This means that the data generated by farms is not being effectively used for benchmarking, forecasting and optimization. Although it is the standard in the agriculture, dairy and swine industries, data-driven decisionmaking has not yet become commonplace in aquaculture. Aquaculture is the fastest growing food sector in the world; as the industry continues to grow, farmers need tools to help them track, measure and optimize their operations.
