• Increasing pressure on freshwater resources due to terrestrial feed ingredients for aquaculture production

  Terrestrial alternatives for fish meal and fish oil increase the water footprint and economic water productivity may be reduced due to alternative feed formulations, warns new study.

• Iowa State University Extension and Outreach publications

  These aquaculture publications are available as free downloads from the ISU Extension Online Store

• Fish In, Fish Out: Perception of Sustainability and Contribution to Public Health

  This article contributes to the ongoing debate regarding the sustainability of fishmeal and fish oil in aquaculture diets. It demonstrates why the “Fish In, Fish Out” metric, which is frequently used to show how many units of wild fish is needed to produce one unit of farmed fish, is not a valid tool for measuring the sustainability or efficiency of aquaculture production.
