Sustainable Aquaculture Innovation : Reports
Research on sustainable fish farming, seaweed cultivation, and IMTA (Integrated Multi-Trophic Aquaculture). IMTA co-cultures species at different trophic levels so waste from one feeds another. Bay of Fundy trials show 46-50% kelp/mussel growth enhancement near salmon cages. China's Sanggou Bay produces 84,500t kelp, 535t finfish, and 15,000t scallops annually from integrated systems. Yellow Sea IMTA demonstrations achieved 57.85% higher economic benefit and 131.1% higher comprehensive benefit versus monoculture, with 10% lower labor costs. Brazilian small-scale IMTA (mussels + scallops + seaweed) shows payback periods under 4.24 years on just 0.4 hectares.
