Editorial Staff | Aquaculture Magazine Source: Aquaculture Health Committees / ANPLAC · Data 2016–2025 (2025 preliminary) · Own statistical analysis A decade of records allows us to trace, for the first time, the complete trajectory of Mexico's shrimp larval industry: a sector that grew 27.5%, remapped its geography, and set a historic production record in 2025 — with internal dynamics...
* By Aquaculture Magazine Editorial Team Can aquaculture waste become a valuable resource instead of an environmental problem? Biofloc Technology converts organic waste into nutrient-rich microbial biomass to enhance shrimp farming sustainability. This comprehensive review highlights that for large-scale production, utilizing high-density polyethylene (HDPE)-lined ponds with central drainage is ideal. Alongside aquamimicry, these closed systems drastically reduce water exchange, suppress pathogens,...
Regulatory outbreaks reach the aquaculture sector with the same logic as sanitary ones: no warning, a clearly identifiable causal agent, and a predictable propagation map. Five algorithmic governance regulations are landing on Latin American aquaculture operations at the same time.
* By Aquaculture Magazine Editorial Team In this discussion, Dr. Antonio Garza de Yta outlines Aquaculture 4.0 as the shift from fragmented farming to integrated, data-driven systems. By connecting infrastructure, data, and value chain integration, the industry can eliminate operational uncertainty, reveal unseen biological risks, and unlock large-scale structured finance. This framework provides an essential roadmap for scaling global aquaculture...
* By Ph.D. Stephen Newman As global aquaculture surpasses 100 million metric tons, the shift toward evolving production paradigms is no longer optional but essential for sustainability. This analysis explores how traditional methods are giving way to advanced technological frameworks, including precision genetic selection and automated husbandry. By redefining these core operational standards, the industry can ensure long-term ecological balance while...
