Ecosystem-based aquaculture focuses on integrating aquaculture practices with the surrounding environment to ensure sustainability and minimize negative impacts. By taking into account the health and integrity of ecosystems, this approach promotes responsible farming methods that prioritize biodiversity and ecosystem services. It advocates for the use of natural processes and materials to support aquaculture operations, creating a more harmonious relationship between farming activities and marine or freshwater environments. Implementing ecosystem-based practices can reduce pollution, enhance water quality, and preserve vital habitats. By addressing key factors such as climate change, resource management, and species interactions, Ecosystem-Based Aquaculture paves the way for a more sustainable future in aquaculture that benefits both producers and the ecosystems in which they operate.
