In situ fatty acid production supports shrimp yields in diets lacking fish oil and fishmeal
Type: Journal Article
Using capture fishery‐derived fish oil and fishmeal in aquafeeds is unsustainable. This study mimicked semi‐intensive shrimp ponds, including primary producers, in mesocosm tanks. Fatty acid mass balances were computed to ...
Does aquaculture add resilience to the global food system?
Type: Journal Article
Aquaculture is the fastest growing food sector and continues to expand alongside terrestrial crop and livestock production. Using portfolio theory as a conceptual framework, the authors explore how current interconnections ...
The magnitude of global marine species diversity
