About us
The tilapia you eat in Taiwan, most are from Sheng-Diao Aquatic Technology! With the experience of nearly 20 years, Huang Cheng-Xian breeds about 50 million fish fry every year, which not only supply Taiwan fish farms but also exported to China, Thailand, Malaysia and other countries.
Sheng-Diao Aquatic Technology of Taiwan, SDAT was established in 1978, and in foot of Dawu Mountain, Xinpi, Pingtung County. The two major items for business are
(1) Selection of high quality tilapia strains: Taiwan tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) and Taiwan red tilapia (Oreochromis spp.) brooder stock and commercial fish production
(2) Planning systematic rearing facilities, design, R&D.
In 2012, we built "SD tilapia" strains. The male ratio of SD tilapia is up to 95%.
There is no use of male hormone or other drugs. In addition, SD tilapia is large size, fast-growing, heavy fillet, low feed conversion rates, and excellent resistance to disease, etc., better than rest strains.
In 2011, we stationed and cooperated with Taiwan Fisheries Research Institute, Council of Agriculture to explore for tilapia genetic breeding techniques.
We also got technology transfer of Taiwan red tilapia TsR and marine tilapia strains from Taiwan Fisheries Research Institute to develop new varieties.
