FISH PRODUCTION PROCESS 2 years S Factors Affecting FCR SYMPTOMS OF THE PROBLEM N IT C D=d 1+d 2+d 3+d 4 Vary of FCR from Cage to Cage Use of Insufficient Quality of Feed Malnutrition M SYMPTOMS Why FCR ? FCR Value High Mortality and Cannibalism Insufficient Area of Land Space 70% of total production cost is feed cost. Insufficient Area of Marine Space OBJECTIVE Cages Copyright © Department of Industrial Engineering/Yaşar University (2013 -2014) R(R 1, R 2, R 3) Ø Improving production efficiency in fish production, Ø Improving FCR • Current FCR ≈ 2, 4 – 2, 7 • Target FCR = 1, 99 IP IW
