Nebojša Savić

Prof. Dr. Nebojša Savić serves as a full professor at the Faculty of Agriculture, University of Banja Luka, holding dual appointments in both the Department of Animal Husbandry and the Department of Fisheries, Beekeeping and Non-Conventional Animal Production. He was elected to the position of full professor in Fishing in January 2023 and in Animal Husbandry (specializing in animal breeding and nutrition) in September 2020, reflecting his dual expertise across these interconnected fields.

Dr. Savić's research spans aquaculture systems, fisheries science, and animal production with particular emphasis on salmonid species. His work investigates the complex relationships between environmental factors, nutritional inputs, and biological responses in fish production systems. He has made significant contributions to understanding rainbow trout farming dynamics, crayfish ecology, and the economic aspects of fisheries in Bosnia and Herzegovina. His research portfolio demonstrates a balanced approach integrating fundamental biological studies with practical applications for sustainable aquaculture development.

Analysis of his recent publication record (2020-2025) reveals several key trends: increasing focus on biosecurity measures in aquaculture, comprehensive assessments of fish welfare standards, detailed economic analyses of supply and demand dynamics in regional markets, and continued investigation of morphological characteristics in native freshwater species. His work consistently addresses both the biological and socioeconomic dimensions of fisheries and aquaculture development in the region.

Dr. Savić has authored several significant scholarly works including the textbooks 'Fish hatchery' (2022), 'Rainbow trout nutrition' (2020), and 'Rainbow trout farming, market and economics' (2018). He has participated in numerous international conferences across Europe and contributed to collaborative research projects addressing regional aquaculture challenges. His work has been instrumental in developing scientific foundations for sustainable fisheries management and aquaculture practices in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
