Polar and Atlantic Cod Share Habitat, not Diet
Despite Atlantic cod and haddock extending further into Arctic waters, a new study reveals there is little competition for food between the invaders and native polar cod. However, it is uncertain whether climate change will increase competition between...

Pesticides' Impact on Catfish Blood/Tissue Oxidative Stress Level
This study aims to investigate the impact of commonly used pesticides (deltamethrin) on the blood and tissue oxidative stress level in catfish; in addition to the protective effect of alpha-tocopherol on deltamethrin induced oxidative stress, write Kamal...

FAO 2012 Global Shrimp, Shellfish & Mollusc Outlook
Shrimp supply squeeze from bad weather and production problems keep prices high but new season will bring relief. No crisis for imported shellfish and canned molluscs in European markets, according to the FAO Global Food Outloook.

Climate Warming May Enhance Polar Cod Survival
Researchers have demonstrated that hatching in polar cod can begin as early as January in Arctic seas that receive large freshwater input, compared to April-July in seas with little freshwater input. Since early hatching leads to higher survival rates,...

Monitoring the Quality of Salmon
Good quality and improved quality control are important for salmon producers. Effective measurement methods that investigate how light scatters through the flesh of the fish can be of great help.

Illinois Asian Carp Problem Highlighted
Asian carp, that large, invasive fish known for leaping out of a river into boats when startled, now make up more than 60 percent of the total fish biomass in one of Illinois' major river systems, a research team led by Southern Illinois University Carbondale...

“Healthy” Farmed Cod Undergo Extensive Pathological Changes
Doctoral research carried out by Mona Gjessing from the Norwegian School of Veterinary Science shows that pathological changes in cod differ from those found in diseased salmon, and cod that appear clinically healthy can nevertheless be affected by extensive...

Nile Perch Production – April 2012
While Nile perch popularity in the German market was enhanced by Naturland certification, the US will probably face strong competition from Australian barramundi.

Waste of Processed Product at Retail and Consumption Level
Roughly one-third of the edible parts of food produced for human consumption, gets lost or wasted globally, which is about 1.3 billion ton per year. Food is wasted throughout the food supply chain, from initial agricultural production down to final household...
