Until recently, light manipulation has only been used in year-round fry production of rainbow trout. Now light treatments have come to be regarded as a potential tool for improving the fish quality. As fish mature, their quality deteriorates. If it were possible to control the timing of maturation, more fish of an appropriate maturity status, i.e. good quality, could be produced. The goal was to study regulation of the maturation of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) using light treatments. The effects of light treatments on maturation and end-product quality were evaluated. The light treatments were conducted with underwater lamps within sea cages at the Rymättylä Fisheries Research Station. Based on the experimental data, a statistical model was created for annual timing and duration of light treatment to delay maturation.
