(CHINA, 11/4/2017)
Processing plant Rushan Hope Well Foods Co. Ltd, located in Shandong province, China, has become the first facility handling oysters or scallops to earn Best Aquaculture Practices (BAP) certification.
The announcement was made by the Global Aquaculture Alliance (GAA) during the China Fisheries & Seafood Expo in Qingdao in early November.
The firm’s oysters and scallops are processed and sold to retail and foodservice outlets in China and around the world.
In addition to aquaculture feed, there are now 17 types of farmed seafood represented in the BAP program — Arctic char, barramundi, channel catfish, crawfish, golden pompano, hairy crab, mussels, oysters, pangasius, rainbow trout, salmon, sea bass, scallops, shrimp, steelhead trout, striped bass and tilapia.
Through the first three-quarters of 2017, there were a total of 1,737 BAP-certified facilities in 31 counties and six continents, including 392 processing plants, 1,072 farms, 173 hatcheries and 95 feed mills.
