Alaska's aquaculture industry is small. It consists of around 82 authorized aquaculture facilities and another 24 are in the process of being authorized. The economic value of this sector is around 1.5 million dollars and is made up of production of oysters, seaweed and mussels in state waters, which is developed mainly in the southeastern and central-southern regions (Prince William Sound, the peninsula of Kenai and Kodiak). Fish aquaculture is not allowed in the state.
The negotiations to reach a new Global Treaty of the Oceans (implementation of UNCLOS on biodiversity beyond national jurisdiction, also known as "BBNJ"), which celebrate their last and fifth round at the UN headquarters in New York, are heading his second week without making any notable progress.

Never have fishermen and shellfish collectors been paid so much for the products of the sea that they sell in the 61 fish markets of Galicia. From January to this Friday, the 250 species were quoted at an average of 3.27 euros per kilo, 9% more than in the same period last year, but it does not compensate for a 10% drop in volume because turnover fell by 2 ,5 %.

BioMar Group and Síldarvinnslan signed an understanding agreement to build a modern feed manufacturing plant with the highest production technology. In this way, BioMar will become the only global food company on the Icelandic market. The great ambition of the pact is the construction of a facility that will achieve net zero in its operation.
The commercial agreement constitutes an opportunity to use the by-products derived from the Sildarvinnslans fishing operations taking advantage of BioMar R&D's portfolio and knowledge in the use of new ingredients.
A team of scientists have designed an automatic pond aerator that's powered by photovoltaic panels - giving shrimp farmers in remote areas access to sustainable energy.
The traditional aerators used in shrimp farming require a substantial power source – without it, shrimp production isn’t as effective or efficient. To help address this issue, the Community Empowerment Real Work Lecture (KKN PM) team from the Institut Teknologi Sepuluh Nopember (ITS) created a photovoltaic-based aerator to strengthen the farmers’ production efficiency.
As aquaculture grows, producers and feed firms are constantly looking for sustainable ingredients.
In April this year, a new study concluded that krill meal is a beneficial functional ingredient in feed for whiteleg shrimp (Penaeus vannamei). Conducted by the Central Institute of Brackishwater Aquaculture (ICAR) in India and Norwegian krill supplier Aker BioMarine, an eight-week feeding trial using the krill meal product QRILL™ Aqua found that 4.6% of krill in whiteleg shrimp diets leads to higher body weight and greater survival.
