Book Description

Excerpt from Joint Legislative Commission on Seafood and Aquaculture: Report to the 1991 General Assembly of North Carolina, 1992 Session In addition to the topics described above, three specific issues were referred to the Joint Legislative Commission following the 1991 Legislative Session.

The study may include, requiring licenses, license fees, implementation and collection of fees, and use of proceeds of fees. The second issue, which resulted from a recommendation of this Joint Legislative Commission, relates to the organizational structure of the Marine Fisheries Commission. Recommendations on both of these issues must be made to the 1992 General Assembly (regular Session). Finally, a third topic for study, House Bill 1032, introduced by Representative Robert Grady, concerns transferring the authority to grant shellfish leases from the Marine Fisheries Commission to the Secretary of the Department of Environment, Health, and Natural Resources.

Cleaner Fish Biology and Aquaculture Applications


Book Description

Cleaner fish are increasingly being deployed in aquaculture as a means of biological control of parasitic sea lice, and consequently the farming of wrasse and lumpfish, the main cleaner fish species in current use in salmon farming, is now one of the fastest expanding aquaculture sectors with over 40 hatcheries in Norway alone. Cleaner Fish Biology and Aquaculture Applications reviews and presents new knowledge on the biology of the utilised cleaner fish species, and provides protocols in cleaner fish rearing, deployment, health and welfare. The latest knowledge is presented on specialist technical areas such as cleaner fish nutrition, genetics, health, immunology and vaccinology, welfare, transport and fisheries. Specific chapters detail cleaner fish developments in the main salmon-producing countries. Contributions from over 60 leading researchers and producers give an exciting mix of information and debate. The book comprehensively addresses the questions of sustainability of cleaner fish use in aquaculture, bottlenecks to the optimum production of cleaner fish, and improvements and best practice in on-farm deployment methods, for optimum survival and enhanced welfare of cleaner fish. Some of the key features of this important book: Provides a comprehensive review of the latest globally-available information on the use of cleaner fish under one cover Highlights and addresses the main issues in the farming of cleaner fish, and provides guidance on how to improve growth and survival Identifies issues in the farm application of cleaner fish and provides details on how to address these issues Written by a team of internationally-recognised experts in cleaner fish biology, culture and deployment Cleaner Fish Biology and Aquaculture Applications is an essential purchase for hatchery managers, salmonid producers, fish farm operatives, researchers, regulators, students and enthusiasts working with, and interested in, cleaner fish. Personnel within companies supplying equipment and services to the aquaculture industry, and libraries in all universities and research establishments where biological sciences and aquaculture are studied and taught should have copies of this landmark publication. 5m Books




Aquacultural Development


Book Description

In this volume, an international group of contributors explores the newly emerging aquaculture industry. Focusing on the social and environmental dimensions of aquacultural development in both industrialized and nonindustrialized nations, they examine issues of social equity, user-group conflict, environmental impacts of production, and the mediating role of the state. They also discuss aquaculture's role in development activity-especially in sustainable development, where it can enhance community viability, coherence, and solidarity. Asserting the need for careful planning and recognizing impending political and moral choices, the contributors assess the decisionmaking process for public authorities and development agencies and consider the social consequences of these decisions. Policymakers responsible for promoting and managing this growing industry will find this volume invaluable as they begin to research and design appropriate institutional structures. In addition, scholars interested in the overall adoption and diffusion of new technologies will find here a rich source of information about a system that shares attributes with but also differs significantly from agricultural and fisheries production systems.
