ASAIM addresses challenges to growth of marine fish farming in Southeast Asia
In its efforts to advance sustainable aquaculture practices and the use of soy-based feeds in Southeast Asia, the American Soybean Association International Marketing Program (USAIM) has identified several challenges.

Turning to the sea: Can seaweed help us raise more food more efficiently?
Discussion of aquaculture development should consider trophic levels. Seaweed culture, for example, could possibly double plant food production by farming less than 1 percent of the ocean’s surface.
