Catching the Ethical Fish: No Strings Attached
The idea of ethical food is promoted in almost every modern supermarket, but when it comes to producing, catching and eating fish, deciding what ethical means isn't as easy as it seems, writes Adam Anson, reporting for TheFishSite.

Harmonising Nature and Technology with Aquaponics
Born from the abstract philosophy of ecocentric ideals, aquaponics has emerged at the very frontier of agricultural technology. Yet, many years after the modern concept was first realised it has yet to receive the commercial recognition that might unlock...

Raising the Developing World with Aquaculture
In this age of economic recession and ever worsening third world food crisis, it is increasingly important that developing countries find profitable industries for their sustained independence. As a source of both food and finance, it is not difficult...

Integrating Fisheries into Coastal Area Management
Marine and large lake fisheries depend on the coastal area in many different ways. A fishery’s success is based upon continuing stocks of fish, which require healthy habitats for their own food supplies and life cycles, reports the Food and Agriculture...

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...

Amazon Produces 200,000 Tonnes of Fishery Products a Year
The Amazon answers to 20 per cent of Brazilian fishery production and generates a turnover of around US$ 199 million. Besides, aquaculture is an important source of employment, income and food, says Chico Araújo, of Agência Amazônia, published by the...

Production Methods for the Common Carp
Statistical data indicate that common carp production may have come close to its limit. However, common carp will remain an important species in those areas where it is produced traditionally. The FAO Fisheries and Aquaculture Department explains how...

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.
