Fisheries data and the state of our fish stocks
Fish is healthy, we know. But what about the health of our fish stocks?

Useful infographics on the status of important fish stocks for Belgian fisheries.
Useful infographics on the status of important fish stocks for Belgian fisheries.
ILVO and VLIZ publish for the first time a series of summary infographics on fish stocks relevant for the Belgian fishing fleet.
Status of the fish stocks
Where do Belgian commercial fishermen fish? What species do they catch and how much? What is the state of fish stocks in those places, and how exactly is that calculated? When can we speak of a sustainably fished stock?
There, the biological state of the various fish stocks is determined by means of a number of complex calculations.A science-based recommendation is thus formulated on the basis of these fish stock estimates.

Ray, Fish of the Year 2021
Ray, Fish of the Year 2021
Rye will be "fish of the year 2021" in Flanders. VLAM is setting up a promotional campaign around this fish species, with remarkably many nuances and facts. Again, ILVO determined the sustainability of the "fish of the year".
Evaluation of food quality throughout the vegetable processing chain
This project works on innovative regeneration techniques for prepared vegetables while maintaining quality in important health care settings. "Regeneration" means reheating and preparing prepared and cooled (or frozen) vegetables for tasty consumption in the best possible way.
Evaluation of food quality throughout the vegetable processing chain
Monitoring product quality of fruits and vegetables throughout the chain using hyperspectral measurements
Monitoring product quality of fruits and vegetables throughout the chain using hyperspectral measurements
Carrying out an objective hyperspectral measurement of the quality of leeks during cultivation, transport and storage, and linking this back to field data and storage parameters: that is the aim of the VLAIO project 'SpectroFood'.
Inventory and validation of quality control procedures for the extraction of nucleic acids used for diagnosis
Main research questionEach plant health lab uses different DNA and RNA extraction methods for its diagnostic tests, depending on organism, purpose of the test, but also matrix for example. The market for commercial kits also continues to grow rapidly.

Flemish farmers satisfied with the quality of their soils, more than half willing to apply no-till cultivation
Flemish farmers satisfied with the quality of their soils, more than half willing to apply no-till cultivation
These are some of the preliminary findings from a widely distributed survey conducted as part of European project SoildiverAgro.
Variation in raw and cooked ham quality of pigs in Flanders: insight into the contribution of genetics and the potential of a minimal invasive measurement technique
Main research questionThe aim of this project was to get insight in the meat quality variation of sire and sow lines that currently form the genetic basis of our Flemish fattening pigs. The unique aspect of this project was that the meat quality was determined on both fresh meat and high-quality cooked ham.
