As global demand for seafood continues to grow, the fishing industry is under intense pressure to enforce responsible fishing practices to avoid over-exploitation and damage to marine ecosystems. Aquaculture is the fastest growing food production system in the world, and already more than half of the fish consumed globally comes from aquaculture operations.
