Marine finfish aquaculture involves the farming of fish species that live in saltwater environments. Popular marine species include salmon, sea bass, and tuna. This sector of aquaculture has grown significantly to meet the rising demand for seafood. Marine finfish farming occurs in open-ocean pens or land-based systems that mimic ocean conditions. The key challenges in this industry include controlling diseases, managing water quality, and minimizing the environmental impact of waste products. Technological advancements, including closed-loop systems and improved feed, are enhancing sustainability and helping reduce the industry's carbon footprint. Innovations in genetic selection also contribute to more robust fish stocks.
