Business trip report, Germany, Regenda

From September 29 to October 2, 2025, a four-day excursion was held for first-year students of the follow-up master's program as part of the courses "Salmonid Fish Farming" and "Pond Aquaculture." A total of 16 different facilities, farms, organizations, and locations in the Czech Republic and Bavaria were visited. These included various types of operations, primarily fish hatcheries, flow-through and recirculation farms breeding fry and/or marketable salmonids and sturgeons, research organizations, cage farms, pond farms, water structures, fish processing plants, fish and fish products, etc. The program also included tasting fish specialties.

The excursion was made possible thanks to financial support from the Sumava Fish Jewels project, BYCZ01-020 Living Jewels Beneath the Water Surface of Šumava, and teaching resources from ÚAOV and VÚRH. Thank you for your support!
