Blueprint for a Sustainable British Columbian Watershed
If the abundance of wild salmon indicates the health of British Columbia's watershed, then the latest research does not bode well. However, a new report looks set to reverse the damage done, bringing new life to industries and ecosystems alike, writes...

Sea Lice: a Parasite of Fish and Farmers Alike
By comparison with the vast sums of money involved in high-tech salmon farming the battle against parasites might seem like small fry, yet sea lice continue to elude modern eradication methods. Adam Anson, reporting for TheFishSite, finds out where the...

The Global Spread of Infectious Salmon Anaemia
As a second wave of Infectious Salmon Anaemia washes up on Scottish shores, the industry holds its breath. Only time will tell what gets upturned in its wake, but on a global scale the severity of the problem is already showing its true face, writes Adam...

Production Methods for Atlantic Salmon
Rapid increases in production have led to falling prices, which in turn have put increasing pressures on producers to limit costs. The Food and Agriculture Organisation of the United Nations explains how the different systems of production work.

Organic Aquaculture: What's in a Label?
Increasing consumer awareness to unsustainable aquaculture practices have made the prospect of organic aquaculture both environmentally and economically fruitful, but strict standards make this goal difficult to achieve. As the US considers by-passing...
