La acuicultura se enfrenta en la actualidad a un reto importante; suplir la creciente demanda de productos marinos de calidad, aliviando a su vez la presión que las flotas pesqueras ejercen sobre los caladeros. El propósito de esta guía es promover el desarrollo sostenible de la acuicultura mediterránea proporcionando directrices básicas para la correcta selección y gestión de emplazamientos de acuicultura.

Over the past decade, there has been growing concern among international stakeholders, particularly in Mediterranean countries, about aquaculture product quality, knowledge management, interaction with the environment, technology and systems, fish health and welfare, management of biological lifecycles and sustainable feed production within the aquaculture sector. This publication is a result of a constructive debate among stakeholders.

L’aquaculture fait face actuellement à un défi majeur: comment alléger la pression sur les stocks de poisson causée par la pêche commerciale tout répondant à une demande croissante pour les produits de la mer par des méthodes durables. L’intention de ce guide est de promouvoir le développement durable de l’aquaculture en Méditerranée et dans ce but il développe des lignes directrices pour de meilleures pratiques en matière de sélection et de gestion des sites.

Aquaculture is currently facing a significant challenge: how to alleviate the pressure on fish stocks exerted by commercial fishing and yet meet the increasing demand for sea products in a sustainable way.

This report examines economic and policy issues related to wild and farmed salmon in North America. These issues have received a great deal of attention in recent years, reflecting the environmental, economic and cultural importance of salmon to Americans – and the fact that salmon issues span many important policy debates ranging from environmental protection to trade policy.

Aquaculture currently faces a significant challenge: how to fulfill the expectation of alleviating the pressure that fishing fleets exercise on fish populations without leading to environmental problems. It is particularly expected to develop widely in the near future in the Mediterranean’s European, Southern and Eastern countries.
