商品簡介
This book focuses on incorporating the elements of adaptability and sustainability in aquaculture for changing the course of its development towards the ecosystem approach.
The contents have been structured to justify the importance of forging synergies of aquaculture with other methods of seafood production for addressing the challenges and meeting the production targets. With the stabilization of capture fisheries, there is no alternative to aquaculture in seafood security, and this requires changing the course of production methods.
The book contains synthesis of information on current practices and the wisdom of capitalizing on gains from established practices, and identifies new areas for reforms in chartering the way forward. It suggests the need for new models of development that evolve in an innovation ecosystem for accelerating the merger of time-tested approaches with the modern knowledge deeply rooted in environmental compatibility. Written with a collective wisdom of distinguished authors from different parts of the world and including some topics that have not been covered in aquaculture books for reasons of their new-found significance are among the important hallmarks of this book.
Students and researchers will find this book a useful source of information and policy makers might want to read it for a possible paradigm shift.
