Comparing biofloc polyculture and IMTA production of Nile tilapia and Pacific white shrimp
To maximize production of both tilapia and shrimp in biofloc polyculture and IMTA production, the two species should be grown separately.

Can sustainable mariculture match agriculture’s output?
Global, sustainable mariculture production, developed on a massive, sustainable scale and using just a small fraction of the world’s oceanic areas, could eventually match the output of land-based agriculture production. Scale and international law considerations require the involvement of many stakeholders, including national governments and international organizations.

Seaweeds: Top mariculture crop, ecosystem service provider
Seaweed aquaculture represents approximately half of the world mariculture production, but since seaweed farming is mostly concentrated in Asian countries, there is a lack of appreciation for this resource in the Western world.
