Choosing the right aquaculture technology

Special care needs to be taken when moving fish in order to minimise their stress levels and thus prevent unnecessary deaths.

Taking tilapia cold tolerance ranges into account shows how just a few degrees can make for a worry-free season.

With government assistance, many rural small-scale fish farmers could turn their operations into viable enterprises.

Fish species that are adapted for rivers generally perform better under aquaculture’s challenging conditions. Why aquaculture is stressful for fish

The aquaculture industry is unique among animal agriculture industries in that there is a near-equal amount of wild-harvested and farmed seafood

Most fish do not reproduce readily under captive conditions because environmental conditions necessary for reproduction are not well understood.

Companies such as AquaBounty Technologies create fertilized salmon eggs with growth-enhancing DNA from other fish species.

Model developed that allows fisheries to net enough to meet rising consumer demand while ensuring adequate income and replenishment of natural stocks.

Companies from around the world lead the charge. Here are five ways firms are working to clean up fish farming.

Wild seafood is disappearing rapidly, and many consumers have turned to farmed fish as a way to help reverse the trend.

The world's appetite for fish is steadily growing. Finfish and shellfish currently make up one-sixth of the animal protein people consume globally.

Aquacultural output, growing at 11 percent a year over the past decade, is the fastest growing sector of the world food economy.

Researchers in Lebanon fed Nile tilapia special fish pellets laced with cannabis oil in an effort to reduce stress and lower mortality rates, reports Metro.

Of the $8 billion worth of farmed tilapia produced each year, around $1 billion is lost to streptococcosis, according to the USDA Agricultural Research Service

A new study suggests that farmed Atlantic salmon diets should contain four times the levels of niacin and twice the levels of vitamin B-6 compared

Aquaculture is the fastest growing food-producing industry and is currently playing a major role in global protein production.
