A recent study conducted by aquaculture breeding company GenoMar compares the performance of their premium tilapia line - GenoMar 1000 - against a common commercial strain, highlighting potential benefits for the Brazilian tilapia industry.
 



GenoMar's premium genetic tilapia line - GenoMar 1000 - and a market leading local strain were compared in both pond and cage production systems under commercial conditions in Brazil, during a recent study. The results showed that GenoMar 1000 is superior for growth, survival, and uniformity, growing approximately 30 percent faster than the local strain during the test. With economic analysis suggesting a 31-36 percent annual increase in profits, the results demonstrate GenoMar 1000’s potential to enhance productivity, profitability, and sustainability in the Brazilian tilapia industry.
