GENETIC SELECTION PROGRAM

Ilknak has its own selected brood fish.

Ilknak has over 20 years of expertise in juvenile research and development. Since 2002, Genetics Selection Program is being implemented very successfully.

The program is based on the selection of families of known and recorded pedigree that combine desired traits and characteristics, i.e. growth rate, food conversion rate, color, fat content, filleting yield, shape, resistance to disease.
