Application
As well as the type of fish being farmed, it is the feed coefficient, the so-called "fish in – fish out" ratio, that determines the required quantity and appropriate composition of feed. To ensure on-time availability and optimal feed composition, reliable stock level monitoring is necessary. The feed stocks, from production to delivery and distribution, are visualised and reliably managed. Automatic ordering processes are triggered by VEGA Inventory System.
