The aquaculture sector in Ecuador, especially shrimp farming, is one of the country’s most dynamic economic activities. However, it also faces significant challenges: climate change, variations in water quality, safety risks, and pressure to reduce costs without sacrificing productivity. In this context, digital transformation is no longer an option but a necessity to achieve efficient, sustainable, and profitable production.
Connectivity as the basis of digitalization
In rural and coastal areas where many shrimp and fish farms operate, having a stable and secure internet network is key. At Adeatel, we provide reliable connectivity solutions and secure networks that enable:
- Monitor critical variables such as temperature, oxygen, and water salinity in real time.
- Remotely control pumps, automatic feeders and aeration systems.
- Maintain continuous communication between production areas, administrative offices and control centers.
A good network infrastructure is the backbone that makes any subsequent technological advancement possible.
Automation and energy efficiency: less consumption, more control
Optimizing energy consumption is one of the main challenges in aquaculture ponds. Pumps, aerators, and other equipment consume large amounts of electricity. At Adeatel, we implement critical and sustainable energy solutions that include:
- Intelligent monitoring of electricity consumption, detecting excesses or inefficiencies.
- Automation of turning equipment on and off at strategic times.
- Backup power systems (UPS, battery banks, or solar panels) to ensure operational continuity even during power outages.
These solutions help reduce energy consumption, extend equipment life, and prevent losses due to interruptions.
Security and traceability with intelligent video surveillance
Security in aquaculture facilities goes beyond preventing theft. It’s also about traceability of operations, protecting staff, and ensuring compliance with protocols. With our artificial intelligence (AI)-powered video surveillance solutions, shrimp farms can:
- Monitor remote areas in real time from any device.
- Detect intrusions, unusual movements or unauthorized access.
- Generate automatic alerts and cloud recordings with secure backup.
This not only reduces material losses, but also improves decision-making based on visual data and reliable records.
At Adeatel, we understand the unique needs of the Ecuadorian aquaculture sector. Our technological solutions are designed to support companies in the sector on their journey toward smarter, safer, and more efficient production.
Digital transformation isn’t the future of aquaculture, it’s its present. And we’re ready to be your strategic partner in this evolution.
