Abstract
En tr It is necessary to develop sustainable methods for the conservation of natural resources and the production in accordance with environmental standards in aquaculture. Animal welfare and product supply suitable for food ethics is a major issue that is important today. One of the eco-friendly new production methods is biofloc technology. This technology is based on carbon and nitrogen balance in aquaculture systems and improves water quality. In this study, biofloc technology, which has been used effectively in aquaculture in recent years, has been compiled. Su ürünleri üretiminde doğal kaynakların korunması ve çevresel standartlara uygun yetiştiricilik yapılması için sürdürülebilir metotların geliştirilmesi bir gerekliliktir. Hayvan refahı ve gıda etiğine uygun ürün arzı, günümüzde önem gösterilen başlıca bir konudur. Çevre dostu yeni üretim metotlarından biri biyoyumak (biofloc) teknolojisidir. Bu teknoloji, su ürünleri yetiştiricilik sistemlerinde karbon ve azot dengesine dayanan ve su kalitesini artıran bir sistemdir. Bu çalışmada, su ürünleri yetiştiriciliğinde son yıllarda etkin bir biçimde kullanılmaya başlanan biyoyumak teknolojisinin yetiştiricilikte sunduğu faydalar derlenmiştir.Keywords
