Thread: Aquaculture VS Permaculture...

    Exclamation Aquaculture VS Permaculture...

    Here's a bit of a read, not too long.

    My take..... Permaculture on the ocean is critical. I have heard about and then seen the damage aquaculture has done in Tasmania ( salmon farming )

    Similarly prawn farming...

    I don't have an answer, but this article has merit.

    Aquaculture seems to be one of those things that are great in theory, but……..feeding fish takes other fish stocks, pollution is a huge issue, but all that gets swept under the political rug

    And the tuna saga in SA quite some time ago now where imported pilchards/sardines were used to feed them and an introduced virus almost wiped out our own pilchard stocks.
    Unfortunately $ signs tend to mar any other research.
    One of the sad signs of our times is that we have demonized those who produce, subsidized those who refuse to produce and canonized those who complain.

    I wonder why he chose those two species to farm?
