Aquaculture and Mariculture
- Extensive and Intensive Aquaculture [1]
- Extensive aquaculture does not require the addition of feed. Examples of this include
- Intensive aquaculture requires the addition of feed. Examples of this include
Types of aquaculture
- 1/4 bivalves [2]
- 1/4 seaweed and algae [2]
- Largely produced for chemicals [2]
- 1/2 fish [2]
- salmon
- largest market value produced [2]
- shrimp
- salmon
Potential Mitigation of Over-fishing
- Collection of juvenile from wild or incubating in a hatchery
- Rate of replenishment needs to be sustainable for the ecosystem that the juveniles are collected from [3]
- Urban aquaculture [4]
- Has led to poverty reduction for those who perform aquaculture in Bangladesh [5]
Impacts on Coral
- Current common fishing practice in Indo-Pacific if dropping cyanide in water to stun fish- having disastrous effects on coral [3]
- Coral reefs are used to provide an ecosystem for aquaculture farming. [6]
- Aquaculture on Costal Reefs and Related Problems
Problems
Pollution
- Increased pollution along coast from concentration of aquacultures [3]
GMO Salmon
- AquaBoutny Technologies has created a GMO salmon that grows twice as fast as normal salmon and twice as large [7]
- regulation issues
- fear of its escape into the wild
