What are the pros and cons of aquaculture?
Aquaculture (farmed fish) can provide an economical, year-round supply of seafood that does not deplete the available stocks of wild fish. It is important, however to only buy farmed fish from operations that use antibiotic-free aquaculture feed, ensure that their fish remain contained within the aquaculture operation without escaping to other bodies of water, and protect water quality and the surrounding environment with good nutrient management systems.
