An assessment for aquaculture development in South Africa identified nine freshwater areas and eight marine areas, representing all nine provinces. These areas will be studied to provide guidance for government to enable responsible, integrated and streamlined decision-making. 

Countries seeking offshore aquaculture development must comply with requirements to prevent and control pollution. LOS articles grant coastal states the right to construct aquaculture facilities within their exclusive economic zones and ban others from construction there. 

The 18-month Maribe project has uncovered some promising ideas for promoting growth and jobs within the blue economy. Aquaculture, fingered as one of five key areas for growth, could benefit from collaboration with renewable energies. 

La decisión de cosechar implica la consideración de diversos factores, incluyendo los precios de mercado, la necesidad de los clientes, la biomasa y la condición de los animales, y otros. Varios pasos están involucrados, la mayoría dirigidos a mantener la máxima calidad de los animales cuando son cosechados, sacrificados, tratados y transportados a la planta, y procesados y empacados. 

Arab States have substantial natural resources to increase aquaculture production. Several types of systems are readily adaptable and can be implemented relatively quickly.  

The Ideal Fish “urban fish farm” in Connecticut is producing branzino, or European sea bass, using RAS technology. Learn about this project from the company that designed and supported it: Pentair Aquatic Eco-Systems. 

Collaborative research in Florida is developing technologies for rearing marine fish in low-cost, low-salinity recirculating systems. Spawning and larval production studies have led to the mass production of juveniles. 

The main reason for recent declines in blue mussel yields in the Netherlands was lower availability of mussel seed. Mild winters have increased the number of predators, which can decimate mussel stocks. 

This study compared production performance and tissue fatty acid composition of California Yellowtail fed diets containing various saturated lipids. 

Sheepshead are robust, adaptable, omnivorous fish that are cheap to feed and can be grown in ponds, cages, tanks or raceways in saltwater or fresh­water. 

The Atlantic Cod Genomics and Broodstock Development Project has expanded the gene-related resources for the species in Canada. 

Studies show that dietary arachidonic acid improves fish survival and growth if offered together with suitable levels of the other essential fatty acids. 

Asian sea bass (Lates calcarifer) feeding strategies and diets must be developed for slow-growth (winter) and fast-growth (summer) seasons.  

The Asian sea bass (Lates calcarifer) is known by various common names in different parts of its range, including “barramundi” in much of Asia. 

Study results can enhance the ecological value of the marine aquaculture carbon sink and create a “decarbonization space” for sustainable development. 

To better monitor IUU fishing, watchdogs are turning to tracking devices, satellites and even artificial intelligence. 

Tesco has announced plans to recycle and reuse discarded plastic waste from coastal areas into their fresh fish packaging. 

NOAA Sea Grant will support projects to remove and recycle marine debris, improve fishing net technology and develop community partnerships.
