PerformFISH has developed a set of KPIs in consultation with 5 aquaculture Producers’ Associations from Croatia (CCE-CAA), France (SFAMN), Greece (FGM), Italy (API) and Spain (APROMAR), and who together represent 93% of EU sea bream and sea bass production. The KPI system includes 55 KPIs related to four overarching categories:
- 35 Technical Performance Indicators (T-KPI) for ranking biological performances of batches and technical efficiency.
- 14 Environmental Performance Indicators (ENV-KPI) to assess the impact of farming practices on the preservation of biodiversity and habitats, the use of natural resources, water, space and energy use.
- 9 Welfare Performance Indicators (W-KPI) to assess fish welfare at different life stages and in relation to different culture systems and husbandry practices.
- 2 Economic Performance Indicators (E-KPI) for estimating productivity and efficiency of aquafarms.
Addressing target audiences and expressing needs

- Other Actors who can help us fulfil our market potential
R&D, Technology and Innovation aspects
The benchmarking system is currently being tested by 20 Mediterranean Marine Fish Farming (MMFF) companies across 40 farm sites.
