Podcasts about Aquaculture

In this episode from 2018 I talked about how few things on my property give me more enjoyment than my various garden ponds.  There is something peaceful about moving water and fish.  The bonus is if we want fish tacos tonight and didn't take any out of the freezer, with 4 bread balls and 5 minutes I can have us 4 nice pan fish for cooking. Aquaculture is function stacking in the best way.  You get a beautiful piece of landscaping, wildlife habitat and free food as a bonus. Join Me Today to Discuss… Why bother with aquaculture in the … Continue reading →

Episode Summary Queen conch have long been a cultural, ecological, and economic cornerstone throughout the Caribbean, but decades of overfishing, habitat degradation, and climate impacts have caused populations to decline dramatically. In this episode, Becky Holt and Dr. Megan Davis of the Florida Atlantic University Queen Conch Lab share how their team is working to reverse that trend through restoration aquaculture, community partnerships, and an innovative network of mobile hatcheries deployed throughout the Caribbean. The conversation explores how the Queen Conch Lab evolved from a single collaborative project in Puerto Rico into a growing regional initiative with mobile labs operating across multiple Caribbean nations. Becky and Megan discuss everything from the biology of queen conch and their role in maintaining healthy seagrass ecosystems to the logistics of raising larvae, training local communities, and building long-term conservation programs. They also reflect on winning the 2025 Responsible Seafood Summit Innovation Award and their vision of establishing a queen conch farm in every Caribbean country. Featured Guests Dr. Megan Davis - Research Professor and Director, Florida Atlantic University Queen Conch Lab Becky Holt - Assistant Director, Florida Atlantic University Queen Conch Lab Key Topics Covered Why queen conch are critical to Caribbean ecosystems and coastal communities How conch help maintain healthy seagrass beds and biodiversity The development of mobile queen conch hatcheries Community-based restoration and local workforce training The lifecycle and aquaculture process of queen conch “Conch ranching” and nursery release strategies Educational outreach through the “Conch in the Classroom” program Challenges facing queen conch populations, including climate change and overfishing The Queen Conch Lab's 2025 Responsible Seafood Summit Innovation Award win The future potential for commercial queen conch aquaculture Key Takeaways Queen conch play a major ecological role by naturally grazing and cleaning seagrass habitats. Successful restoration efforts depend heavily on local partnerships and community involvement. Mobile hatcheries allow restoration projects to operate in remote Caribbean regions without major infrastructure needs. Queen conch restoration creates both conservation benefits and economic opportunities for local communities. Education and hands-on engagement are helping inspire the next generation of ocean stewards throughout the Caribbean. The Queen Conch Lab's long-term vision is to establish restoration-focused conch farming initiatives throughout the Caribbean region.

Scientists started talking about clam gardens in the 90s – but nations along the west coast built and maintained these beaches for thousands of years before. Rosanna speaks with Skye Augustine about the clam garden restoration that is reconnecting community to this traditional way of harvesting. Also on the show – Timothy Smoke on what it takes to learn and pass on knowledge around minomin – or wild rice – harvesting, and Saya Masso on how the creation of kelp farms is bringing traditional foods back to his community.

From understanding why operating profit margin multiplied by asset turnover determines your return on assets to learning the brutal truth that in aquaculture you can start small with 20,000 cedis drying fish the traditional way but as you make money from the local market you upgrade your equipment step by step until you're exporting to Europe where they test for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons that stick on fish skin when you smoke with firewood and might cause cancer which is why investing in modern drying machines matters even though it costs more upfront, the catfish farmer who explains that retailers have slim margins of 2% to 3% but high turnover of 2 to 4 times per year while companies like Fanuc making robots have very high margins but low turnover of 0.5 because they only produce maybe 50 robots per annum proving that scale is everything in the fish business and if you're doing a thousand fish you're going to be in trouble but if you're doing 10,000 tons or 50,000 tons you have leverage over feed companies like Raanan and Coppens because they know you're going to buy from them, the entrepreneur with a 100 kilowatt solar farm who admits he doesn't have the managerial resources to be thinking about making his own feed when companies can provide it and the real strategy to lower costs is just scale not trying to buy maize soybeans methionine and all those ingredients yourself when you should be focused on your fish and marketing marketing marketing, the aquaculture business owner who breaks down the regulatory maze you must navigate before starting a catfish farm in Ghana where the Fisheries Commission charges about 1,000 cedis for permits for both grow out and hatchery operations but the EPA charges around 20,000 cedis after doing environmental research and writing reports based on your capacity, the farmer who uses boreholes and has to deal with the Water Resources Commission which is in charge of all water bodies in Ghana and charges you for water you're drawing from the ground because you're using it to make money though they can't monitor all the farms using boreholes but his farm is right by the road so they can see the tanks and he has to comply, the wisdom that catfish farming is absolutely profitable and tilapia is very popular because any corner you turn in Ghana you see a Banco joint with tilapia and imagine the volume of tilapia we consume every day every week every month while catfish is just a niche but Nigerians have taught us you can actually grill catfish and people in the diaspora want dried catfish to make Banco joint and soup and Indians are waking up to the fact that it has a lot of meat and is not as bony as tilapia so the demand is actually growing, the strategic thinker who says you don't have to narrow yourself to Ghana as your market but think West Africa is my market and then the whole world is my market going through this step by step by step always doing your Japanese due diligence researching the background of where you want to have your catfish farm, the resirculating aquaculture system expert who uses RAS technology where water comes into the tank he feeds the fish they poop into the water and conventionally this water would be flushed out into gutters but in resirculating aquaculture he moves this water into a mechanical filter where the solids are filtered then it goes through a biological filter where any bacteria is eliminated, the minister for fisheries and aquaculture Mrs. Emilia Arthur who came and tried to streamline regulations because farmers had to deal with several regulators and it was really cumbersome and very expensive so they want the Fisheries Commission to be a one stop shop which is very welcome for the industry, the reality that if you're using Ghana Water Company your water bills are going to go up but you have to make a decision.

Episode Summary In this episode of Aquademia, hosts Justin Grant and Maddie Cassidy explore how aquaculture, entrepreneurship, and education intersect through the SeaMade Kelp Bar project at the University of New England. Guests Jaden Schoppee, student CEO of SeaMade, and Cameron Wake, Director of the Center for North Atlantic Studies, share how a kelp-based nutrition bar evolved into a fully student-led business and hands-on learning experience. The conversation dives into how students are actively involved in every stage of the process—from harvesting kelp off the coast of Maine to managing production, branding, and regulatory challenges. It's a real-world example of experiential learning in action, where students are solving complex business, sustainability, and food system challenges while building career-ready skills. Featured Guests Jaden Schoppee — Student Project Manager & CEO, SeaMade Kelp Bar, University of New England  Dr. Cameron Wake — Director, Center for North Atlantic Studies, University of New England  Hosts: Justin Grant & Maddie Cassidy  Key Topics Covered The origin story of SeaMade Kelp Bars  How kelp is harvested and turned into a nutrition bar  Student-led business structure and interdisciplinary collaboration  Challenges in food labeling, nutrition testing, and ingredient sourcing  University support vs. entrepreneurial flexibility  Real-world problem solving in experiential education  Sustainability and the future of kelp in food systems  Maine aquaculture and its connection to the lobster industry  Key Takeaways SeaMade Kelp Bars are both a product and a living classroom, integrating aquaculture, nutrition, marketing, and business education.  Students are not just observing—they are actively running production, solving operational challenges, and making strategic business decisions.  Small changes in ingredients or suppliers can significantly impact nutrition labeling, cost, and compliance.  Kelp offers a highly sustainable, nutrient-rich ingredient with strong potential for future food systems.  Real-world uncertainty (weather, infrastructure, regulations) is a constant part of aquaculture and food production.  Links & Resources Mentioned University of New England: SeaMade Kelp Bar Project: Information Seaweed Saturday Event — Gulf of Maine Research Institute (GMRI): https://gmri.org SeaMade Kelp Bar Instagram: @SeaMadeKelpBar Global Seafood Alliance: Check out our website!: https://www.globalseafood.org/podcast Follow us on social media: Facebook | LinkedIn | Instagram Share your sustainability tips with us podcast@globalseafood.org!

What if one of the most important aquaculture growth stories isn't happening in Norway, Chile, or Ecuador but in East Africa? This episode we step into a region that's quietly transitioning from small-scale aquaculture into something far more commercial and durable. Focusing on Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania, and Rwanda, we break down the structural forces driving growth (rising protein demand, pressure on wild fisheries, and improving feed, infrastructure, and policy support) and why Nile tilapia sits at the center of it all. From Uganda's push into export markets to Kenya's commercial scale-up through companies like Victory Farms, and Rwanda's rapid transformation led by Kivu Choice, this is a look at how an entire region is beginning to industrialize aquaculture in real time. We also hear directly from Kamran Ahmad on what it takes to build a scaled fish business from scratch and what comes next. For more aquaculture insights head to our Fish n' Bits blog.

The Seaweed Story Seaweed is a crucial part of ecosystems in several parts of the world, including our local California coasts. However, seaweed does more than just offer a home to local marine life. It also has immense carbon sequestration potential, and contains helpful compounds for a variety of different products. Because of these potential benefits, a new industry has arisen: aquaculture. This term refers to farming in the ocean, specifically of seaweed, in order to harness the valuable resources that can be derived from the plant.  Seaweed can be a more environmentally friendly way of growing food as it does not require the use of fertilizer, pesticides, freshwater, or land. According to The Nature Conservancy, global food production accounts for 80% of land degradation, 70% of freshwater use, and 33% of greenhouse gas emissions. Because of its lessened need for land resources, seaweed farming reduces these negative impacts on the environment. It also grows rapidly, and can be harvested in as little as six weeks. It also works as an underwater carbon sink, and can take in huge amounts of carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus, helping to clean the oceans and reduce the risk of dead zones—areas where nutrients from fertilizer cause low oxygen levels in water due to runoff and prevent life. While farmed seaweed is not a new concept—it has roots in coastal economies, cultures, and diets, particularly in Asia—the industry has grown to become a $16.7 billion market. Two of the companies that have stepped in to harness the power of seaweed include Ocean Rainforest and Altasea. According to Ocean Rainforest, their mission is to “use science, innovation and expertise to apply sustainable methods to grow and harvest seaweed and process it into premium quality products for our target customer segments.” The company cultivates seaweed in the North Atlantic and the Pacific Ocean, and creates products including biostimulants, pet feed, skincare serums, and ingredients for restaurants.  AltaSea operates their farms at the Port of Los Angeles, and “is dedicated to accelerating scientific collaboration, advancing an emerging Blue Economy through business innovation, and job creation, and inspiring the next generation, all for a more sustainable, just, and equitable world.” On top of selling seaweed related products and services, AltaSea also focuses on conducting research and creating programs that immerse children and adults in ocean education.  One potential challenge the seaweed industry is facing is the fight for space on the coastline, between commercial shipping companies, military vessels, oil platforms, and wildlife protected areas. Also, there is always a risk to altering an ecosystem, even in the case of aquaculture. Space and ecosystems still must be cleared for seaweed farms, which might have consequences for the surrounding areas. In order for seaweed farming to make an impact, it will be crucial for California policies to align with the needs of aquaculture, including space for farms along the coast. Further, Ocean Rainforest and AltaSea are both engaging in outreach projects to promote sustainable aquaculture and seaweed products to hopefully spread the popularity of their eco-friendly products and processes.   About our guest Kaira Wallace is the Regulatory and Community Engagement Associate at OceanRainforest. She focuses on advancing offshore seaweed aquaculture in California by navigating complex permitting processes, building strong relationships with state and federal agencies, and ensuring compliance with environmental standards.  Jade Clemons is the Director of Economic and Workforce Development at AltaSea. Her work centers around California coastal and marine development policy, entrepreneurial ecosystem engagement and collaboration, and implementation of accessible blue economy career pathways.   Resources World Wildlife Fund, Farmed Seaweed Natural History Museum, Seaweed farming for sustainable food California Sea Grant, Seaweed Aquaculture The Nature Conservancy, With the Right Tools, Seaweed Can Be an Important Piece of the Climate Puzzle AltaSea Ocean Rainforest For a transcript of this episode, please visit https://climatebreak.org/aquaculture-and-the-seaweed-industry-with-kaira-wallace/

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 3-05-2026: Dr. Dawn demonstrates how to critically read a science paper using a widely-publicized study claiming adolescent cannabis use causes psychotic, bipolar, and anxiety disorders. She identifies multiple methodological problems: only 5.7% of Kaiser adolescents admitted cannabis use versus 11.2% in anonymous national surveys, suggesting massive underreporting; the study conflates any use with heavy use; and with 463,000 participants, trivially small differences become statistically significant but clinically meaningless. She proposes reverse causation—that prodromal schizophrenia symptoms may drive teens to self-medicate with cannabis rather than cannabis causing psychosis. The study also included "disruptive behavior disorder" diagnoses that lack rigorous criteria, and she notes diagnostic codes are sometimes chosen for insurance reimbursement rather than accuracy. While acknowledging high-dose THC before age 16 may affect brain development, she concludes the headlines claiming causation are not supported by the actual findings. Dr. Dawn discusses how aquaculture—now producing 60% of fish consumed globally—has become a breeding ground for antibiotic-resistant pathogens. More antibiotics per kilogram are used in fish farming than in any other animal agriculture, with drugs dissolving into water and sediment where bacteria develop resistance. One study found antibiotic-resistant bacteria in over 80% of shrimp species tested across multiple countries. Through horizontal gene transfer, these resistance genes spread to human pathogens—a 1991 Latin American cholera outbreak affecting nearly a million people may have acquired drug resistance from Ecuadorian shrimp farms. Dr. Dawn reports that the FDA rejected Moderna's mRNA flu vaccine application without even reviewing it, despite trials of 41,000 people showing it was 27% more effective at preventing illness and 29% more effective at preventing hospitalization than existing vaccines. She attributes this to politicized anti-mRNA bias lacking scientific basis, noting that venture capital investors like Blackstone (who invested $750 million) will now avoid vaccine development, effectively handing this critical technology to other countries. Dr. Dawn describes the "wellness industrial complex"—pharmaceuticals, tech, testing companies, and health influencers creating content that pathologizes normal behaviors. YouTube health videos have amassed 200 billion views, and 30% of British respondents now get medical advice from AI chatbots. She cites a 400% increase in British adults seeking ADHD diagnoses, noting that analysis of top TikTok ADHD videos found less than 50% accurately reflected actual symptoms. Many influencers receive undisclosed payments to mention products, and the U.S. and New Zealand are the only countries allowing direct-to-consumer drug advertising. A caller asks about navigating Medicare after their Advantage plan was terminated with no local providers accepting remaining plans. Dr. Dawn explains that Medicare Advantage companies took extra government payments meant for wellness programs but didn't build them, and are now exiting markets as costs rise. She recommends contacting Gray Bears or AARP for free Medicare navigation assistance and suggests exploring regular Medicare with a secondary plan or direct-pay practices. /li>

90% of seafood consumed on the Oregon coast is imported, while most Oregon-caught seafood gets exported. This week, we explore how that's changing. We talk with Suzie O'Neill, Kaitlyn Rich, and Jon Bonkoski from Ecotrust, who just launched "Tending the Tides," a podcast about mariculture on the Oregon coast. Learn how oyster farmers became climate sentinels in 2007 when ocean acidification killed their larvae. Discover urchin divers using rock climbing techniques underwater in 50 pounds of lead, and how their catch feeds innovative closed-loop aquaculture systems growing seaweed and sea cucumbers. From selective breeding programs creating climate-resilient oysters to kelp forests buffering acidification, this episode reveals how Oregon is building regenerative ocean farming that honors Indigenous stewardship, avoids parachute science, and redefines what sustainable food systems look like. Featuring the Oregon Coastal Mariculture Collaborative's community-led approach to expanding "unfed aquaculture"—oysters and seaweed that grow without any inputs beyond what the ocean provides.

This episode explores the hidden realities of fish farming with Laura Lee Cascada, founder of the Aquaculture Accountability Project. Despite being marketed as an environmentally friendly solution to overfishing, aquaculture has created factory farms on water that cause widespread suffering to sea animals, contribute to environmental degradation, and pose serious human health risks. Cascada debunks the industry’s greenwashing tactics and reveals…

What if the most important lessons from 2025 aren't found in any single chart, but in how pressure quietly shifted across the system? In this episode, we step back from predictions and take a pattern-based look at what actually mattered over the past year in Norwegian salmon farming and what those same signals suggest we should be watching in 2026. By examining how business conditions, biological performance, environmental stress, and regulation interacted, we unpack why weak prices reshaped decision-making, why fish health improved despite record temperatures, how sea lice pressure continues to build beneath the surface, and why regulation remains the hard ceiling on growth. The goal isn't to draw clean conclusions, but to understand trade-offs. Where risk was absorbed, where it was deferred, and where pressure is likely to surface next as the industry moves into a more constrained future. For more aquaculture insights head to our Fish n' Bits blog.

In this episode, we hear from Hannah, a sociology major whose thesis journey crossed disciplines but always circled back to climate change. Her project draws on eighteen interviews with oyster farmers working along Maine's coastline—one of the fastest-warming in the world. Starting with a question about gender divides between different fishing methods, Hannah found herself pulled toward climate justice and the ways aquaculture communities adapt through strong networks, shared knowledge, and community-driven problem-solving. Tune in for insights into interdisciplinary research, the behind-the-scenes of an interview-heavy project, the tangible impacts a Reed thesis can have, and of course what Hannah really thinks about oysters. Reed community members can read Hannah's thesis, “Climate Change Adaptation Strategies in Maine Oyster Aquaculture” online in the Electronic Thesis Archive: https://rdc.reed.edu/i/9e08adc0-f53b-489e-bd35-12cb21d7dae1 Explore more interviews with Reed College alumni on our website: reed.edu/burnyourdraft

Americans now eat more farmed seafood than they do from the wild ocean. That's turned farming fish into big business, one that consumers have benefited from. But the U.S. imports most of that seafood – we have very few domestic fish farms. Now, though, that might start to change. There are proposals to build massive fish farms in U.S. federal waters. And the Gulf of Mexico is where some of the early action is unfolding. Reporter Boyce Upholt explores the shift from wild-caught to farmed, what it could mean for the environment and economy, and our connection to the ocean. This episode is the first in a two-part series on the future of seafood, produced in partnership with WWNO's Sea Change.

In today's episode, Elizabeth sits down with James Arthur, marine biologist and founder of Seatopia, to break down what's really in our seafood. James explains the truth about microplastics and mercury, why “fishy” fish is actually rotting, how parasites end up in wild-caught fish, and why regenerative aquaculture is the future of clean, safe, nutrient-rich seafood.He also shares how Seatopia ensures zero detectable microplastics, the safest approach to raw fish, and the proper way to defrost seafood at home.

Fish feed in aquaculture is at the center of a complicated global story that most people never hear about. In this episode, Andrew sits down with marine biologist and policy expert Marine Cusa to explore the hidden world of fishmeal, fish oil, feed ingredients, and the surprising connections between aquaculture, wild fisheries, West African communities, and even penguin populations in Antarctica.  Marine breaks down what actually goes into the pellets fed to farmed fish, why transparency is lacking in the supply chain, and how her genetics research is uncovering the real species being used in fish feed. The conversation reveals why feed matters for sustainability, human nutrition, local livelihoods, and the future of aquaculture as demand for seafood continues to grow. Whether you're new to the topic or already deep in fisheries science, this episode opens the door to a critical but overlooked part of marine conservation.  Help fund a new seagrass podcast: https://www.speakupforblue.com/seagrass Join the Undertow: https://www.speakupforblue.com/jointheundertow Connect with Speak Up For Blue Website: https://bit.ly/3fOF3Wf Instagram: https://bit.ly/3rIaJSG TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@speakupforblue Twitter: https://bit.ly/3rHZxpc YouTube: www.speakupforblue.com/youtube
