The R&D program included testing of 6 different technical solutions,
developing a formulated diet fulfilling nutritional requirements,
developing various automated solutions (feeding robot, harvesting
robot, selection robot, remote desktop solutions, and image
processing program), developing biological protocols, and conducting
culinary tests and market studies. As a result, Norwegian Lobster
Farm has managed to close the production cycle from egg to platesize
solely based on a formulated diet, demonstrating commercial
harvests and market success both in terms of product quality and
high farm gate prices.
