The Best Aquaculture Practices, BAP, program now has a two-star certified operation that farms and processes tilapia in Costa Rica.

The Terrapez processing plant, which is associated with Aquacorporación Internacional group under Rain Forest Aquaculture, was certified in August as BAP's first tilapia plant in Costa Rica.

Located in Cañas, Guanacaste, the state-of-the-art, purpose-built plant can process over 20,000 metric tons of fresh and frozen products annually.
