Abstract

The issue is widely appreciated: rapidly growing populations in Asia increase the gap between supply and demand for fish, thereby threatening national food security in many countries. Furthermore, it is generally accepted that aquaculture has the greatest potential to bridge this gap as capture fisheries, though still the major fish source in most countries, are static or or in decline due to over-fishing and environmental degradation. It is generally agreed also that aquaculture should be both socially and environmentally sustainable.
