Industry Strategic Science and Technology Plans (ISPs) Platform
This project will involve an interdisciplinary team who will work for wider adoption of the technology in Luzon where most of the tilapia hatcheries are located. The dissemination of technology will be in collaboration with other SUCs and LGUs that will result in increased seed production in their respective areas which is highly needed for …
This project focuses on enhancing the food value chain for Tilapia in Region 3. Second to milkfish, tilapia is the most cultured freshwater fish in the country. Based on the 2019 Philippine Statistics Office (PSO) data, fresh tilapia production in the Philippines totaled 1,344,382.36 MT with Central Luzon contributing 644,113.05 MT or 47.91% to the …
The SKSU Agri-Aqua Technology Business Incubator will provide technical services to the incubatees for the promotion and commercialization of the developed technologies. The project will focus on halal goat production, mushroom production, and processing of fishery products.
Hot temperatures, particularly during El Nino episodes can lower fry production in hatcheries by reducing the frequency of spawning and egg production. To ensure year-round fry production, the program designed an aquashade to mitigate the effect of warm temperatures. The aquashade made from collapsible metal frames and greenhouse net which can block sunlight …
The Zeolite-silica nanocomposite (ZNC) is a novel material synthesized and fully characterized at the CLSU Nanotechnology R & D Facility. ZNC can be utilized as soil and water conditioner for aquaculture purposes. Because of its enhanced properties: 262 m2 /g (surface area), smooth surface morphology (SEM), diameter size 38.26±8.32 nm, and amorphous – it is …
It is accurate, faster, user-friendly and convenient diagnosis using the developed detection kit, compared to the time consuming and lesser user-friendly conventional diagnosis. Farmers themselves can now be fully equipped with reliable information as to the existence/occurrence of any pathogenic bacterial pathogen in their culture operation. With the developed immuno-assay diagnostic kit using nanotechnology, the …

The Central Luzon State University through the leadership of Dr. Emmanuel M. Vera Cruz developed the aquashade for the tilapia hatchery production in 2016. Shading the breeding area especially during the hot season was shown to reduce water temperature by as much as 40oC and enhance fry production by seven fold. Two designs of aquashade …
Among the various disease-causing pathogens, bacterial pathogens are the major cause of infections and disease problems in wild fish and fish reared in confined conditions. An important prerequisite for diagnosing and establishing proper treatment and preventive action against diseases is through disease detection. The Central Luzon State University through the leadership of Dr.Karl Marx A. …
The Central Luzon State University through the leadership of Dr. Juvy J. Monserate developed the Zeolite-silica Nanocomposite (ZNC) technology. The ZNC is a novel material synthesized and fully characterized at CLSU Nanotechnology R & D Facility. ZNC can be utilized as soil and water conditioner for aquaculture purposes. Because of its enhanced properties: 262 m2 …
The University of the Philippines through the leadership of Dr. Carmello del Castillo initiated the on-going project which started in the last quarter of 2020, it aimed to use medium-chain rich coconut oil and Mannan polysaccharide as bioactive feed additive to improve health and promote growth of seawater Nile Tilapia. Optimization of dose and blend …
