Environmental Impact of Aquaculture
Environmental Impact of Aquaculture
Aquaculture, while offering a sustainable solution for seafood production, can have significant environmental impacts. These impacts include water pollution from excess nutrients and waste products, habitat destruction due to infrastructure, and the escape of non-native species into wild ecosystems. Additionally, over-reliance on fishmeal and fish oil in aquaculture feeds can affect wild fish populations. However, advancements in sustainable practices, such as integrated multi-trophic aquaculture (IMTA), efficient waste management systems, and alternative feed ingredients, are helping to mitigate these impacts. Promoting environmentally responsible aquaculture ensures the industry’s long-term viability and protection of aquatic ecosystems.
