Published in Cooperation with THE UNITED STATES AQUACULTURE
SOCIETY
The aquaculture industry continues to be one of the fastest
growing sectors of animal production in the world. As aquaculture
production continues to expand there is a continuous search for new
species to culture to meet the demands of new national and
international markets. Selecting species for aquaculture
development often poses an enormous challenge for decision makers
responsible for deciding which culture technologies to support with
public resources.
"Species and System Selection for Sustainable Aquaculture"
brings together contributions from international experts in
socioeconomics who draw on their experiences to make suggestions
for meeting the challenges of identifying potential species and
production systems for sustainable aquaculture. The emphasis of
this book is on the socioeconomic perspective and its contents are
divided into three sections: Principles, Practices, and
Species-Specific Public Policies for Sustainable Development. This
volume is the outgrowth of a workshop held by the Oceanic
Institute's Aquaculture Interchange Program with examples from
around the globe.
"Species and System Selection for Sustainable Aquaculture" will
be an important reference for all researchers, professionals,
economists, and policy makers involved in selecting appropriate
culture systems and species for the development of a sustainable
aquaculture industry.
