Responsibility
Hatcheries produce Korean rockfish seedlings in indoor tanks for sorting and grading. The fish grow well at relatively low water temperatures in net cages.
Intelligence
The experiences of tilapia farmers combined with effective quality control programs implemented by government have improved production in Mexico, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru and other Latin American countries.
Aquafeeds
Production goals may call for specialized diets to meet market or other demands. An evaluation of feed management strategies can optimize culture conditions and maintain efficiency.
Responsibility
Molluscan seed production in China encompasses 32 species. The seeds of most clams are collected from natural sources in farming areas.
Responsibility
Industrial aquaculture parks that employ hyperintensive culture technology are a promising alternative for further land-based seafood production. They offer wide siting options, efficient land and water resource use, and high-density, high-yield production output. In Project Raceways, a five-nation consortium is developing protocols for the culture of several highly valuable species of marine fish in raceway systems.
Responsibility
Floating raceways can be put in ponds, reservoirs, or sheltered waters as small-scale production systems for fingerlings or short-term nursery environments.
