This paper introduces Mangrove Capital; a programme conceived by Wetlands International and partner organisations, that aims to bring the values of mangroves to the fore and provide the knowledge and tools necessary for the improved management of mangrove forests. The project will enable governments, private sector organisations and local communities in Indonesia to manage mangroves, so that ...
There are two main ways to obtain feed for fish farming in Ghana: locally produced feed and imported feed. However, fish feeds locally produced are in bad quality as most of them are not extruded. Imported feed is appropriately 30% more expensive than locally produced. So importation is not a quick fix. On average the costs for Tilapia farming in Ghana consist of 70% of the feed cost. Therefore, ...
Governance is defined as a process allowing actors to contextualise the regulatory system and, as a result, to transform sustainable development (SD) into an instrument of action. It will be all the easier for actors to familiarise themselves with SD and its implementation measures if these measures are similar to their representation on SD and its consequences on their activity and social life. ...
In order to support healthy aquaculture, we developed assays to assess immune functions and their susceptibility to environmental conditions or toxicants. Flow cytometry allowed the rapid and quantitative analysis of oyster and lobster cell subpopulations and their functions (phagocytosis, peroxide production, natural killer cell-like activity and apoptosis). We demonstrated experimentally that ...
Fish feed pellet is an important guarantee to promote aquaculture development towards the direction of high efficiency, energy-saving, high yield, and environmental protection. It can promote the healthy and rapid growth of fish and provide consumers with high-quality pollution-free commercial fish. The fish feed pellet machine widely used in aquaculture, grain feed processing plants, livestock ...
US aquaculture is one of the fastest growing segments of US agriculture; however, as aquaculture expands, a number of environmental, regulatory, and socioeconomic concerns threaten to constrain further development of the industry. This presents unique challenges to the Sea Grant network. Although Sea Grant encourages the commercial development of aquaculture, it must work with local communities ...
The advantages and disadvantages of culturing fish. Experts develop practical recommendations for decision-makers, scientists and producers for a sustainable development of Mediterranean aquaculture. Human demand for fish is growing steadily. With fisheries decreasing worldwide, aquaculture is becoming an important socio-economic alternative and a source of proteins and healthy oils. ...
How much floor space is needed for organic fertilizer manufacturing equipment? How much is the price of professional organic fertilizer machine? These are the problems to be considered in the early stage of processing manure organic fertilizer. With the rapid development of aquaculture and the comprehensive development and utilization of crop straw, organic fertilizer machine has become the main ...
It has been another busy year for Fusion Marine with the international fish farming sector ordering fish containment pens and a wide range of other specialist aquaculture systems from their diverse range. It has been an important year in other ways too with Fusion Marine moving its administration office from Barcaldine to new modern facilities at Malin House at the European Science Park in ...
In virtue of mature processing technology and unique advantages in fish farming, extruded floating and sinking fish feed has become the most ideal fish feed in modern aquaculture industry. With the further development of fish farming industry, extruded fish feeds have obtained more and more wide applications in virtue of unique advantages including high nutrient, good palatability, strong ...
Is sustainable aquaculture possible? Aquaculture is facing a new era of expansion in Europe. What are the environmental implications of this, and how can the sector expand sustainably? This Future Brief from Science for Environment Policy presents an overview of research into aquaculture’s impacts, and considers how it could develop in harmony with environmental goals. The EU’s Blue ...
The planet’s current population (7.8 billion) is expected to grow more than 25 percent over the next 30 years to an estimated 9.8 billion people. So we need to start thinking today about how we’re going to feed ourselves in a sustainable manner. Oceans will play a key role in this effort, especially through aquaculture, which now accounts for more than 50 percent of the seafood ...
Although June 1 marked the first day of hurricane season in the North Atlantic, 2020 is the sixth straight year in which a named storm arrived early. Tropical Storm Arthur formed on May 16 just north of the Bahamas and passed close to the Carolinas before turning offshore. It was followed by Tropical Storm Bertha on May 27, which made landfall near Charleston before moving up towards Charlotte. ...
Diatom algae are known to play an important role as primary producers in many diverse ecosystems, including artificial aquaculture ponds where they also aid in maintaining water quality by consuming excess nutrients. But factors influencing their growth are still poorly understood. In the present study the effect of micronutrients, N:P ratio and silica concentration on benthic diatom Synedra ...
Shrimp aquaculture is now establishing itself as an important aquaculture industry in coastal Bangladesh. However, the benefit of this industry is concentrated to only the interests of a specific group of people who contribute a significant amount of foreign earnings to the nation, while the present development process is posing a challenge to the coastal sustainability, as well as the industry ...
When recirculating aquaculture systems were first developed and deployed at commercial fish farms in the 1990s, each one was custom-built and designed specifically for a certain site, species and production level, among other factors. Engineers would come in and plan the system from scratch. Based on the scale of the operation, it could take up to 2-3 years for a new system to get designed and ...

Can you believe that there are still five weeks to go in 2020? The worst year in recent memory has also seemed like one of the longest. Even the most optimistic among us have taken to X-ing out days on the calendar like jailbirds marking time from their prison cells. Simply put, 2021 can’t get here fast enough. The good news is that we’re in the midst of Thanksgiving season here in ...

“New species, processes and products contributing to increased production and improved sustainability in emerging low trophic, and existing low and high trophic aquaculture value chains in the Atlantic” AquaVitae aims to increase aquaculture production in and around the Atlantic Ocean by developing new species, processes and products. The focus of the project is placed on low trophic ...
Good news has been hard to come by the last few months amid the COVID-19 pandemic, but the United States aquaculture industry received some two weeks ago. On May 7 the White House issued an executive order aimed at “removing outdated and unnecessarily burdensome regulations” that have long hampered aquaculture efforts in the U.S. The executive order comes just two months after the ...
