Abstract

Aquaculture was established originally in regions where water resources were readily available but supplies are now becoming a limiting factor in some areas due to population increase, industrialization, environmental concerns and other factors. Several fish farms have had to convert from production to nature conservation or recreational areas. Other intensive fish farms are also having problems in the disposal of their effluents. Despite these difficulties, the need for fish as healthy food is increasing, and efforts are being made in many countries to increase the proportion of fish in the diet. However, given current circumstances, studies and trend analyses indicate that some conventional aquaculture systems need to evolve and adapt to changing social, economic and environmental conditions in many European countries.
