The third installment of Fish 2.0, taking place this November, will feature numerous aquaculture-related businesses at various stages of development. The competition’s founder dishes on what the judges will be seeing on stage. 

Farmed jade perch – similar to other cultured fish species – is only rich in omega-3 fatty acids if its diet consists of these nutrients in high amounts. How does it compare to the wild fish? 

Con la producción de camarón cultivado habiendo cambiado en gran medida hacia el extranjero, las tecnologías RAS ofrecen soluciones potenciales para el crecimiento de la producción en los Estados Unidos. La industria está preparada para el crecimiento, gracias a los 

La abundancia de fitoplancton suele ser alta en estanques acuícolas debido a las altas concentraciones de nutrientes de los fertilizantes o aportes de alimentos. 

With farmed shrimp production having largely shifted overseas, RAS technologies offer potential solutions for growing production in the United States. The industry is poised for growth, thanks to entrepreneurs who believe in its potential. 

Science tells us that domesticated livestock and fowl cannot begin to address our world’s near-term protein needs, and that farming fish is our best option. Getting more public support is critical to the success of aquaculture and our planet. 

Phytoplankton has several important effects on water quality, including removing ammonia nitrogen from water and absorbing nutrients from the water for its growth. Abundance of blue-green algae tends to increase as nutrient inputs in aquafeeds or fertilizers increase. 

Chambo Fisheries, one of the world’s largest tilapia biofloc tank farms and the largest in Africa, has developed its own, on-farm production of specialized feeds and procedures to optimize feed applications and feeding rates. 

El cultivo de tilapia en Bangladesh se ha desarrollado considerablemente desde 1999, basada en la cepa de Tilapia Cultivada Genéticamente Mejorada (GIFT) de la tilapia del Nilo (Oreochromis niloticus) introducida de Malasia y en el importante trabajo de investigación del 

Combinando la dinámica de fluidos geofísicos y la biología marina, la tecnología visionaria de Brian Von Herzen pronto será probada frente a la costa de Massachusetts antes de exportarla al Océano Índico. 

Stocking the best quality shrimp postlarvae, healthy and free of pathogens, is a critical management step with significant effects on the production and profitability of a shrimp farm. 

Ocean "hot spots," UCSB researchers have determined, provide enough space to produce 15 billion metric tons of finfish annually, more than 100 times the current global seafood consumption. 

As global demand for food rises, the focus on water resources will intensify. In Berlin, a four-year research project is demonstrating the feasibility of aquaponics, which can drastically cut water inputs. 

Chambo Fisheries, the world’s largest tilapia biofloc tank farm and the largest tank farm in Africa, has a multi-cohort, sequential, continuous production schedule. 

La industria de piscicultura marina de Sudáfrica quebró a muchos inversionistas, pero las experiencias operacionales ayudaron a la productividad en sistemas de acuacultura intensiva, especialmente los sistemas RAS terrestres. El momento de invertir es ahora. 

La acuacultura podría ser una alternativa sostenible a la pesca del atún, pero lograr una producción a escala comercial ha resultado un reto. 

Africa offers innumerable opportunities and a raft of challenges for developing a modernized aquaculture industry. Investors are interested, and pursuing with cautious optimism. 

What is the future that Africa wants? Views on how to grow aquaculture on the continent vary widely, but no one disputes the notion that food security, food safety, income generation and job creation all stand to benefit. 

Now is the time for investment in efficiency improvements, better genetics, health management and more competition and innovation in the feed sector. Let's not perpetuate the myth that just a little more investment in some technical solutions will solve the
