Abstract :
Aquaculture can significantly lower the environmental impacts compared to producing the same amount of protein on land and also has the potential to meet growth in protein demand. Aquaculture is the farming of any saltwater or freshwater aquatic organism from aquatic plant and crustacean to mollusc and fish. And it´s already big business. According to the FAO, aquaculture continues to be the world´s fastest growing animal food-producing sector and is set to overtake wild capture fisheries as a source of fish.
