Is European Aquaculture Sustainable?
European aquaculture production has continued to increase rapidly during the past 15 years due to expansion in the marine sector in the European Union (EU) and European Free Trade Association (EFTA) countries, reports the European Environmental Agency....

Conflict Within the Global Shrimp Industry
As sea creatures go, shrimp are extraordinarily diverse. From tropical estuarine ecosystems to shallow shelves, continental slopes and deep seas as well as the open ocean, shrimp exist in almost all geographical locations around the world. Yet, in spite...

Carbon Sequestration Potential of Shellfish
As the global average temperature increases and CO2 within the ocean begins to reach saturation the ability of the ocean to absorb carbon will alter significantly, writes J. P. Hickey, School of Natural and Built Environs, University of South...

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...

Nodavirus: an Emerging Threat to Freshwater Prawn Farming
Freshwater prawn farms are under increasing threat from pathogens due to poor husbandry and environmental management, says this report by Biju Sam Kamalam, J., Saravanan, S and Ajith Stalin, J.L., Network Aquaculture Centres for Asia-Pacific (NACA).

Resuscitating the Baltic Sea Out of Anoxia
Anoxic or "dead" zones have become markedly distinct in the Baltic Sea over the years. The continuous formation of these oxygen-deprived areas is proving to be more and more detrimental to aquatic organisms, writes Rachel Ralte, reporting for TheFish...

Scottish Aquaculture - A Sustainable Future
Carrying and assimilative capacity of the environment is fundamental to the extent to which aquaculture can develop sustainably, writes Mark James, FRM Ltd, in a CEFAS Shellfish News publication.

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...

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.

Pacific Oyster Aquaculture Protocol for the UK
An FIFG funded study on behalf of Seafish investigating issues surrounding Pacific oyster cultivation and ways of mitigating potential impacts on Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) has recently been completed, writes Martin Syvret, Aquafish Solutions...

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...

Species Protection and Conservation
Fish farming can contribute to the protection and restoration of endangered fish populations living in the wild through the efficient provision of juveniles for release or stocking, says a report in the Consensus Towards Sustainable Aquaculture in Europe...

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...

Sustainable Feed Resources
