Much of the solution to the world’s food insecurity can be found in fish. Fish are more efficient at converting feed to protein than any other animal. No other animal can be raised at a density even approaching that of fish. Unlike raising chicken, pigs and cows, no efforts need be undertaken to provision wild fish with water.
Listen to this unique podcast and learn the answers to questions such as:
- Besides fish, what products are produced by Israeli aquaculture? What end markets do these products serve?
- How are Israeli companies making use of ammonia discharge from aquaculture to grow crops?
- How capital intensive is land-based aquaculture?
- Do fish raised in land-based aquaculture realize that they are not being raised in a natural environment? If so, does this realization affect their behavior?
- Are the fish raised in Israeli aquaculture genetically modified?
- How does using solar power reduce electricity requirements and evaporation?
- What role do regulators play in aquaculture?
Among the Israeli aquaculture companies discussed were Aquatech Fisheries, Pure Blue Fish, and AquaMaof.
