Abstract
The used water use analysis of red tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus-mossambicus). The production from fishery farms was conducted in Sena districts, Phranakhon Si Ayutthaya province using water footprint concept which is a tool for sustainable water analysis and management. This research aimed to analyze amount of used water per product unit of red tilapia. The sample was 60 fishery farms during March, 2016 to January, 2017. The results showed
that the average water footprint of red tilapia production was 4,460.77 L/1 kg of red tilapia that consisted of 4,213.48 L/1 kg of red tilapia from direct water use in the process (blue water footprint) and 247.29 L/1 kg of red tilapia from waste water (gray water footprint) in fishery farms. Therefore, to decrease the amount of water footprint from red tilapia production should be focus on developing the efficiency water system to sustainably in fishery farms.
