Understanding Carbon Footprint in Sustainable Land-Based Marine Aquaculture
In aquaculture, it is crucial to understand and mitigate the carbon footprint for sustainable production. As demand for seafood increases, various production techniques compete for an eco-friendly status. This review examines the carbon footprint of various land-based marine aquaculture systems, highlighting their environmental impact.
Editorial: Environment-microbe-host interactions in aquaculture ecosystems
More importantly, the persistent presence of two probiotic species starting from the egg stage and the big change in microbial diversity on the weaning stage were detected by Almeida et al., suggesting that larval and weaning stages are two sensitive time windows for fish microbiome modulation, which may have long-lasting effect on the later life stages.
Organic Aquaculture Regulation, Production, and Marketing: Current Status, Issues, and Future Prospects—A Systematic Review
he aquaculture industry will be crucial in helping the world’s food supply and keep up with the demand. Aquaculture, like agriculture, must expand and develop sustainably in all the countries to keep up with the rising demand for food. To this end, the aquaculture industry has forged new scientific and technological frontiers in pursuit of long-term food security.
Current Challenges of Vaccination in Fish Health Management
About a 4% decline in fish production was recorded in 2020 in comparison to 2018 in inland aquaculture sectors. In 2014, about 10% of aquatic cultured animals were lost (costing global annual losses > USD 10 billion) due to infectious diseases. Contagious diseases generate several stresses, including oxidative stress in fishes that hampers their reproduction, growth, and production value.
Why the future of fish farming lies on dry land
FISH ARE A vital source of protein and other nutrients for humans, as well as an important part of the ocean's ecology. But overfishing has become a crisis. It is estimated that 90 percent of the world's fisheries are being fished either at or over their capacity, while some species have been driven to extinction. Can an innovative farming method , which grows fish on dry land, solve the problem?
Design and development of an IoT-based intelligent water quality management system for aquaculture.
Water quality is generally known to directly affect the health and growth rate of aquatic organisms and determines the success of any aquaculture fish production. However, water quality problems are difficult to detect early in aquaculture production facilities, largely because it requires a high level of technical understanding of the physio-chemical properties of water.
