In Brazil, a group led by researchers from São Paulo State University (UNESP) in Jaboticabal, in collaboration with the Brazilian Agricultural Research Corporation (EMBRAPA), has developed an artificial intelligence (AI) tool to assess the stress levels of tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum), the most widely produced native fish in Brazil. The study is published in the journal Aquaculture.



Summary

Brazilian researchers created an AI tool to measure stress levels in tambaqui, Brazil’s most popular native farmed fish. Developed by São Paulo State University (UNESP) in partnership with EMBRAPA, the AI system offers a non-invasive method for quickly evaluating fish welfare in aquaculture. The tool analyzes specific physical characteristics to determine stress, potentially leading to improved farming practices and healthier fish populations. The findings are published in the journal Aquaculture, marking a significant advancement in animal welfare within Brazilian aquaculture.
