Definitions
Define in this program the terms traceability, breadth (amount of information provided by the system), quality, procedure and verification.
Normative
Include official protocols.
Responsible
Those responsible people for this activity are all the participants in the production chain, who support traceable information through data records.
Procedures
Describe the methodology for the identification of each of the batches corresponding to production; likewise, record the data on fish movements, feeding, sampling, harvests, inputs used, etc.
Control
A database must be created to record the production information.
The basic records would be:
• Records of water quality.
