AQUACULTURE CAN BE MORE SUSTAINABLE

摘要

When it comes to food production, aquaculture is a major success story. According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), it continues to grow faster than any other major food sector, and by 2030 is expected to provide 60% of the seafood that the human race consumes. The FAO further forecasts that fish farming's global output will reach log million tonnes within the next dozen years, representing a rise of 37% compared to current levels. Despite its Lofty status, aquaculture certainly isn't devoid of challenges; and if these were to be left unchecked, they would inevitably become limiting factors to the industry's long-term growth.
