Relatório do estágio supervisionado realizado no centro de aquicultura da Unesp (Caunesp)

Abstract

Aquaculture is the best way to produce animal protein, from the point of view environmental and economic. With the modernization of cultivation techniques, increased research in the area of nutrition and the introduction of new species of great potential productive, fish production in Brazil has shown great growth in the last years. The purpose of this report is to report on the practices and knowledge acquired during the Supervised Curricular Internship at the Centro Aquaculture Center located at Universidade Estadual Paulista (Caunesp) - Jaboticabal campus - SP. The aquaculture center is a complementary unit of the University, with the mission of integrating professors from different units working in the to generate and disseminate knowledge regarding production, food and nutrition, biology and health of aquatic organisms with potential for aquaculture. The internship was carried out between January 10 and March 10, 2018, totaling 391 hours. During the internship practical activities were carried out determined according to the daily needs of the place, oriented, organized and supervised by Prof. Dr. João Batista Kochenborger Fernandes (supervisor of internship) and Dr. Cleber Fernando Menegaso Mansano. Among the activities that developed are animal feeding, biometrics, rations, laboratory analysis and monitoring of the three projects, namely: 1) Use of double-beam X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) for modeling the growth of the main body components in pacu (Piaractus mesopotamicus); 2) Evaluation of pacus (Piaractus mesopotamicus) responses subjected to different protein intakes and definition of optimal intake biological and economic protein; 3) Estimation of ideal amino acid ratio essential oils (AAE) for tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) in the final growth phase using the deletion method. Extracurricular activities like this are essential for the education of the student, as they develop their theoretical and practical, helping with professional training.
