Continue the knowledge flow of pilot projects

The primary goal of the Baltic-IMTA project was to convert an existing network cage system in the Baltic Sea off Rostock (type Barth from GDR times) into an integrated multitrophic aquaculture system (IMTA) and to scientifically support the material properties and selection of more sustainable products. The pilot project was funded by the EMFF.
