This study investigates the understanding and implementation of circular economy practices among aquaculture producers in Italy, focusing on their preferences, challenges, and perceived opportunities. This research offers insights to guide future...
-
This review examines the role of probiotics in inland aquaculture, which accounts for 62.6% of farmed aquatic animals worldwide. As global aquaculture faces challenges such as environmental degradation, algal blooms, and the high cost of quality...
-
Feed formulations low in fish meal and fish oil can decrease feed intake and nutrient digestibility. Dietary application of lecithins could improve growth performance and nutrient digestibility; however, knowledge about specific lecithins and their...
-
This research article presents a systematic literature review on the current state-of-the-art artificial intelligence (AI) methodologies used in aquaculture applications. As the demand for seafood continues to grow, the aquaculture industry faces...
-
The potential of large-scale seaweed cultivation to contribute to achieving ambitious EU-wide objectives, such as food security, energy independence, carbon neutrality and ecosystems restoration, is widely recognised. However, there is a lack of...
-
Filamentous fungi have potential as an alternative protein source for use in aquafeeds due to their high protein content and bioactive components. This article presents the results of an study conducted to explore how the protein-rich fungus called...
-
Paecilomyces variotii (a filamentous fungus), is a promising novel protein source in fish feeds due to its high nutritional value. Also, P. variotii has Microbial-Associated Molecular Patterns (MAMPs) such as glucans and nucleic acids that could...
-
Host density is a key driver in parasite population dynamics, and often the number of parasites increases rapidly with host density. In the context of Norwegian salmonid farming, this mechanism has led to a disparity between the desire to increase...
-
Among the challenges of the aquaculture sector, the present study tries to focus on the necessary modernisation and innovation of the Hungarian sector education by strategically outlining the possibility of a niche secondary-level fisheries PILOT...
-
A variety of new feed ingredients are emerging in the aquaculture feed sector. While the technological readiness of these options varies across and within the new ingredient classes, it remains important to consider them in terms of the overall feed...
-
Sea lice are a major health hazard for farmed Atlantic salmon in Europe, and their impact is felt globally. Given the breadth of ongoing research in sea lice dispersal and population modelling, and focus on research-led adaptive management, the...
-
Sustainability of aquaculture, an important component of the blue economy, relies in part on ensuring assessment of environmental impact and interactions relating to sea lice dispersing from open pen salmon and trout farms. This document reviews...
-
This article explores innovative approaches to managing fish diseases in aquaculture. It highlights the use of advanced tools such as IoT sensors, artificial intelligence, and machine learning for early detection and control of pathogens. These...
-
Seaweed is a promising source of biomass for the future, and there are significant efforts to increase seaweed aquaculture production in Europe. However, the lack of commonly accepted safety assessment frameworks is a significant barrier to upscaling...
-
The Aquaculture industry is a sector that faces difficulties in maintaining a high-quality production of food in a sustainable way due to the technological limitations of the commercial tools and the lack of integration of systems and sensors that...
-
The Maritime Spatial Planning process is data intensive, having to draw upon the best available data coming from many different sources. There are, therefore, multiple challenges in managing spatial data for inclusion in Marine Plans. These...
-
The objective of this perspective paper is to present and discuss how systemic innovations can deliver a step change in the way food is produced in Europe.
-
Utilising novel ingredients in aquafeeds is necessary for the continued expansion and intensification of aquaculture production. In this review, the processing of microalgae utilised as aquafeed ingredient, the health promoting compounds in...
-
This article aims to identify the current status and challenges relating to the management of farmed aquatic genetic resources (AqGR) and to make recommendations for its improvement. It highlights the lack of information on the genetic status of many...
