Singapore’s first trout farm, which aims to eventually produce up to 3,000 tonnes of rainbow trout a year, has begun operations. Located in Neo Tiew Crescent in Lim Chu Kang, the 1.6ha land-based, high-tech facility will initially produce 1,200 tonnes of the fish a year, said Blue Aqua International, the shrimp aquaculture technology company behind the new farm, on June 4. It aims to ramp up production to 3,000 tonnes per year in 2028, group executive chairman and founder Farshad Shishehchian told The Straits Times. Singapore’s seafood production in 2025 was 3,800 tonnes. The farm could contribute towards the Republic’s revised goal of producing 30 per cent of its local protein needs – a category that comprises both eggs and seafood – by 2035, said the company.   https://www.straitstimes.com/singapore/environment/singapores-first-trout-farm-starts-operating-targets-3000-tonnes-a-year?ref=top-story (ICE SINGAPORE)
