Abstract

Much has been said about sustainability and sustainable aquaculture. A buzzword that is interesting to funding agencies, the topic is huge and the agenda for action overwhelming that one more foray into it is perhaps tolerable. Sustainable aquaculture in this story is discussed vis-a-vis the loss of mangroves associated with the rapid increase in production of cultured shrimp in some developing countries in Asia. At first consideration, mangrove conversion and aquaculture seemed innocuous enough. In Indonesia, brackishw ater aquaculture has been practiced since 1400; China much earlier.
