Sustainability in aquatic resource management is essential to balance the growing demand for seafood with the health of aquatic ecosystems. In aquaculture, sustainability involves practices such as efficient feed management, waste reduction, and resource optimization. For wild fisheries, it focuses on responsible harvesting, avoiding overfishing, and minimizing bycatch. Sustainable aquaculture techniques, such as integrated multi-trophic aquaculture (IMTA), promote biodiversity by cultivating multiple species in a symbiotic relationship. Additionally, advancements in technology, such as eco-friendly feed alternatives and renewable energy solutions, help reduce the environmental impact of aquaculture. By prioritizing sustainability, the aquaculture industry can continue to meet global seafood demand while preserving aquatic ecosystems for future generations.
