Leukemia-like diseases known as disseminated neoplasia (DN) were reported in many bivalve species in the twentieth century even though the contagious nature of some of these cancers was not established until 2015. DN has been recently reported to be contagious in seven species of the American, Asian, and European coasts. […]

Acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (AHPND), a relatively new farmed penaeid shrimp bacterial disease originally known as early mortality syndrome (EMS) has been causing havoc in the shrimp industry. The shrimp production in AHPND affected regions has dropped to ~60%, and the disease has caused a global loss of USD 43 […]

Although aquaculture’s current contribution to GHG emissions from food production is small, there is high likelihood of aquaculture expanding, given the human health benefits, and increasing social preferences for seafood. Therefore, it is critical to identify pathways to advance the growth of climate-friendly practices. Doing so provides an opportunity to […]

In aquaculture, feed becomes a significant factor in the structure of production costs and can reach more than 70% of the total cost incurred. Therefore, it becomes an essential factor for cultivators in Indonesia to adjust the target harvest to feed needs. Design and conceptual model that can be implemented […]

Common problems in aquaculture occur by naturally present opportunistic bacteria that may become pathogenic when the host immune system is weakened by environmental stress. The selective establishment of beneficial microbiota in the gut is crucial for the stable production of healthy fish larvae.  The microbial colonization of the fish gut […]

In the food-energy-water (FEW) nexus, livestock has a dominant place. It is generally considered as water, energy and land intensive. Aquaculture could provide additional animal protein and contribute to meeting the food demand. This study assesses the sustainability of aquaculture using the indicators water footprint (WF), energy footprint (EF) and […]

Vannamei shrimp production with super-intensive technology is the future orientation of aquaculture systems with the concept of low volume high density, that is by not requiring a large area, so it was easily controlled, but has high productivity. Therefore, shrimp production with a super intensive system can be successful and […]

Aquaculture production has risen over the last decades, and it is expected to continue to grow which means the proportional increment amount of waste. ‘Circular economy’ has been defined as “an economic system that replaces the ‘end-of-life’ concept with reducing, alternatively reusing, recycling, and recovering materials in production, distribution and […]

The Mekong Delta of Vietnam has the greatest potential for shrimp aquaculture, an activity that plays a vital role in rural development and helps approximately one million fish farmers to achieve a sustainable livelihood. However, shrimp farms in the Mekong Delta are being affected by various diseases which seriously constrain […]
