Global Food Systems need urgent Reform Integrated mangrove aquaculture offers a viable solution for degraded intertidal zones in the tropics: Multiple species of shrimp, crab, filter-feeding fish and bivalve mollusks are naturally raised in ponds which have been restored with mangroves. The mangroves provide shelter and food for aquatic species to thrive, creating a regenerative food production system that does not depend on any external inputs such as feed or fertilizers. This unique food system does not only supply local people and global markets with healthy, high-quality seafood, but captures carbon, raises biodiversity and increases the resilience of coastal communities! Blueyou’s continuous efforts and leadership in promoting and scaling-up integrated mangrove farming systems across Asia have been recognized by the Food Planet Prize – where Blueyou made it to the longlist of applicants for this year’s prize!

This is a great example of taking circular economy to the next level. Aquaculture by-products hold great prospects not just for the industry itself but also for the aquafeed industry as a component in insect meal increasing feeds performance, nutritional values and sustainability. Kudos for Patagonia King Salmon and Natpro Chile for promoting this important initiative. Hoping to see more initiatives like this and bureaucrats also in the #EU and elsewhere in the world pushing forward this subject. IPIFF (International Platform of Insects for Food and Feed) European Commission European Aquaculture Society Global Salmon Initiative #aquaculture #aquafeed #salmon #insectmeal #circulareconomy #sustainability
Here's yet another "seastainable" milestone in forward farming our Patagonian Kings! Our increased sustainability efforts are coming full circle in our collaboration with sister company Natpro Chile. Together, we developed a unique salmon feed in which insect meal plays a prominent role. And not just any insect meal; our advanced aquaculture's organic by-products are a key ingredient for Natpro Chile's black soldier fly larvae. The larvae are subsequently processed into highly nutritious insect meal, which in turn feeds our salmon. A royally circular diet for our regal Kings! #PatagoniaKingSalmon #Natpro #sustainablefishfarm #forwardfarmed #aquaculture #chile #fishfeed Miguel Angel Leiva Hans Den Bieman Eduardo Waldron Ernesto Cobo Oberpaur

#Viewpoint by John Mosig: From what’s being witnessed across the world, there can be no denying, that right now we’re facing a defining moment in that progress. It presents the #aquaculture industry with a great opportunity to become a serious contributor of animal-based protein in these challenging times. For its ecological impact, real or perceived, aquaculture has long been branded a pariah by #environmental activists. In striving for its own survival, the industry could well become the hero of the global step into a food-secure future, and remove that stigma. #fishfarming #fisheriesmanagement #seafoodindustry #animalbasedprotein #foodsecurity #sustainability

𝐅𝐞𝐝𝐬 𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐩𝐞𝐝𝐨 𝐁.𝐂. 𝐬𝐚𝐥𝐦𝐨𝐧 𝐟𝐚𝐫𝐦𝐬 🐟 "Ottawa's decision to ban open net-pen salmon farming in BC by 2029 is a reckless move that endangers thousands of jobs and exacerbates food insecurity" say prominent Indigenous and Aquaculture industry voices. Ottawa’s fisheries minister Diane Lebouthillier punched the torpedos-away button with her announcement Wednesday that Canada will ban open net-pen salmon aquaculture in BC coastal waters by June 30, 2029. Canadian Aquaculture Industry Alliance cited a report that estimated the removal of current BC salmon farms could double the cost of retail salmon in Canada. “The objective is irresponsible because it threatens 5,000 highly paid and skilled jobs in coastal British Columbia (the youngest agri-food workforce in Canada and 500 of these jobs held by Indigenous people) during a time of economic stagnation. These jobs were considered ‘essential’ to Canada only a few years ago. Nobody has proposed any plan to build a large-scale new system in BC and big land-based aquaculture systems in Nova Scotia and Florida have to date been big money losers. Columnist John Ivison of National Post had this to say on X (formerly Twitter): “Death of another resource industry: the decision to force the West Coast salmon fishing industry to take its pens out of the water will kill it. The return on investment does not justify spending the billions needed to build on-land facilities.” And he also wrote: “The reality is that the decision . . . is a death sentence for an industry that employs thousands of people, sustains a number of impoverished First Nations communities and generates more than $1 billion in revenues as British Columbia’s largest agricultural export earner.” 🔗https://ow.ly/uIR150SCwUw #foodsecurity #fishhealthandwelfare #innovation #aquaculture #fishfarmer #sustainability #fishfarm #hatchery #funding #sustainableaquaculture #trout #salmonfarms #research #networking #salmonfarm #aquaculturist #salmon #sustainablefood #sustainable #fishfarmers #fishery #farmer #seafood #finfish Resource Works BC Salmon Farmers Association Indigenous Resource Network Canadian Aquaculture Industry Alliance

Aquaculture practices complement wild capture fishery, to enhance livelihood and food security. Hower, in order to be more successful, aquaculture challenges including inadequate water supply (for arid regions) and limited availability of fish feed, should be addressed. In this upcoming book, various authors explored topics of sustainable feed ingredients and additives for aquaculture farming with an emphasis on Africa and Asia. I hope you are excited and looking forward to the release of this book, edited by Gabriel Ndakalimwe Naftal (Ph.D), @Kenneth Prudence Abasubng, Dr. Victoria Ndinelago Erasmus and @Manaj Tukaram Kamble If you are interested in the book, you can place your order by following the link: https://lnkd.in/dDFT68hN #Aquaculture #Sustainability #BooksByNamibians

One of the biggest challenges in aquaculture is the management of sea lice, a parasite that negatively affects fish health and significantly reduces productivity. The best way for farms to reduce reliance on chemical interventions, contribute to healthier fish populations and adopt more sustainable farming practices is to place fish cages deeper in the water where sea lice populations are lower. The harsh conditions of deep water environments - strong currents, exposure to salt water and extreme weather fluctuations - require equipment that can withstand these stresses without compromising performance. Our Marine Zippers are designed for these conditions. 🔗 To learn more about how our Marine Zippers are helping to revolutionise sea lice management and drive global aquaculture innovation, visit 🔽 https://lnkd.in/dv2nCjNm . #Aquaculture #MarineZippers #SustainableAquaculture #InnovationinAquaculture #SeaLiceManagement #BuraschiItalia

In this picture, we’re dressing tilapia, preparing them for sale as part of a sustainable aquaculture initiative. Tilapia farming plays a crucial role in providing affordable protein while promoting responsible water use and resource management. As someone passionate about zero hunger and climate action, this process is more than just fish preparation—it's about ensuring food security while maintaining environmental balance. Aquaculture, when managed sustainably, can be a game-changer for communities and ecosystems alike. 🌱 #Aquaculture #SustainableFarming #FoodSecurity #Tilapia #ZeroHunger #ClimateAction #ResponsibleFisheries #NaturalResourcesManagement

Another step forward for BubbleTubing® in the UK #aquaculture market where the technology is being used to help maintain healthy water conditions for salmon to thrive, particularly in summer months. While salmon are tolerant of water temperature changes, it is the tiny organisms that thrive in warmer waters that bring challenges to the health and survival of salmon and other fish. Challenges exasperated by warming temperatures can include increased levels of jellyfish and sea lice, as well as lower dissolved oxygen levels, as warmer waters carry less oxygen. Forming a consistent curtain of micro bubbles, Bubble Curtains can be used in many ways to protect infrastructure or aquatic life by wrapping the tubing around an area, or for environmental improvements such as oxygenising water bodies (rivers, reservoirs, marinas etc). It's great to share another success story with you on our partner's achievements in aquaculture. https://lnkd.in/ekKg8hCu #bubblecurtains #bubblebarriers #jellyfish #salmon #fishfarming #aeration
