À l'occasion de la Journée mondiale de l'eau, le 22 mars, BSG rediffuse cette série de Petit Poisson deviendra Podcast dédiée aux plus gros poissons d'eau douce.  Le Silure est le plus gros poisson d'eau douce en Europe. Le record actuel est de 2,80 m pour 130 kg., des légendes non vérifiables évoquent des spécimens de 5 m!!Avec les Poissons-chats, il fait partie de l'ordre des siluriformes. Cet ordre rassemble le quart des espèces de poissons d'eau douce, soient 3000 espèces (1 vertébré sur 20 est un siluriforme !).Le Silure est parfois confondu avec le Poisson-chat, surnommés ainsi à cause de leurs barbillons, qui ressemblent aux moustaches d'un Chat. Mais attention ! le Poisson-chat, même s'il lui ressemble, fait partie d'une autre famille de poissons, les ictaluridés.Il y a 16 espèces de Silures dans le monde. Le Silure glane (Silurus glanis) est l'espèce la plus répandue en France. Il est originaire des pays de l'Europe orientale, des bords du Danube et des cours d'eau bordant les mers Caspienne et Baltique.Le Silure n'a pas d'écailles, sa peau est recouverte de mucus. Sa bouche énorme est entourée de lignes de très petites dents. Le Silure ne peut pas trancher une proie, il l'aspire et la digère. Bim bam sans fioritures…Ce géant est omnivore et se nourrit surtout au crépuscule et la nuit de poissons, crustacés, amphibiens, parfois de petits oiseaux et de micro-mammifères. À Albi, dans le Tarn, le silure s'échoue volontairement pour choper des pigeons venant s'abreuver.Sa voracité est parfois dénoncée, mais d'après des études récentes, il n'est pas aussi vorace que l'on veut bien le dire. Il est notamment cannibale, ce qui entraîne une régulation de l'espèce. Il paraît donc exagéré voire faux de le classer parmi les espèces nuisibles.Le Silure est revenu en France par la Saône. Il s'est ensuite retrouvé dans le Rhône puis a colonisé l'ensemble du territoire par les canaux et des introductions illégales.Ce poisson est comestible et même bon, mais attention ! C'est un “bioaccumulateur”: il vit longtemps, en haut de la chaîne alimentaire, et stocke les métaux lourds, des pesticides et des PCB dans ses graisses. _______

Have you ever wondered what the Sydney Royal Fine Food competition is about, who gets involved, and why? Tawnya Bahr catches up with Lyndey Milan OAM, Councillor of the Royal Agricultural Society of NSW, to find out what goes on behind the scenes of the iconic Sydney Royal Fine Food competitions. Lyndey has long been involved and has played a crucial role in this important agricultural competition, where she was the first female Vice-President. She founded the Fine Foods Committee in 1997, judging Aquaculture, Branded Meats, Oil and olives, Pasta, Professional Bakery, Specialty Foods, Smallgoods, and Charcuterie. She has also chaired the Sydney Royal Dairy and Wine Shows and remains on all three committees. In this engaging chat Lyndey discusses how and why the competitions started, explains the ‘blind judging’ system the Society uses to ensure fairness for all participants; why winning a medal at the competition is a significant accolade for producers and the importance of networking opportunities for those who sign up as a judge. She also explains the branding advantages of being a medal winner and how the competition encourages producers to improve their offerings based on genuine feedback. #podcast #foodpodcast #sydneyroyalfinefood #foodcompetition #ras #agriculture #finefoods #sydney #food #straighttothesource #dairy #wine Follow us on: IG: @straight_to_the_source FB: @StraightToTheSource TW: _straight_to_source LI: Straight To The Source YT: Straight To The Source Find out more about Straight To The Source: Read about your hosts Tawnya Bahr and Lucy Allon here Join the Straight To The Source community here Learn more about Straight To The Source here Key Episode Links: Lyndey Milan https://www.lyndeymilan.com/ Royal Agricultural Society of NSW Royal Agricultural Society of NSW Cheese and Dairy Competitions Cheese and Dairy Produce Wine Competitions https://www.rasnsw.com.au/competitions/food-beverage-and-produce/Sydney-Royal-Wine-Show-details/ Specialty Competition https://www.rasnsw.com.au/competitions/food-beverage-and-produce/specialty-foods-details/ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A conversation with Sébastien Crépieux, founder of Invers, developing a decentralised insect farming supply chain for animal nutrition, placing farmers at the heart of the model. The role of animals and livestock in farming is something we cover frequently, but we've never discussed insects which can transform immense amounts of agricultural waste—such as leftovers from beer brewing or wheat milling—into high-quality protein and fats. Perhaps most importantly, their frass (manure) is an amazing fertilizer. Of course, humans could consume insect protein directly, but in the Global North, this is rare and may take a long time to change. Insect protein is also an excellent poultry feed, but its greatest impact may be in aquaculture—specifically, fish feed. The immense destruction caused by industrial bottom-trawling fishing fleets is difficult to describe and comprehend. However, it's safe to say that catching anchovies or krill for fish meal—to feed salmon and other fish—is highly inefficient and environmentally harmful.With Sébastien we explore a decentralized approach to insect farming in France, one that focuses on putting farmers at the centre—not by reintegrating large ruminants into farms, but rather small mealworms. Why not go super-centralized with massive facilities and raise hundreds of millions of euros, as some other companies have done? Why hasn't more insect meal been sold to the aquaculture sector to help reduce pressure on the oceans?More about this episode on https://investinginregenerativeagriculture.com/sebastien-crepieux.==========================In Investing in Regenerative Agriculture and Food podcast show we talk to the pioneers in the regenerative food and agriculture space to learn more on how to put our money to work to regenerate soil, people, local communities and ecosystems while making an appropriate and fair return.

We're being told the potential for New Zealand's 'blue economy' to take off will depend on the Resource Management Act. A new Westpac report says the marine economy could grow to $14 billion in 10 years by switching to more sustainable practices. Aquaculture New Zealand Chief Executive Gary Hooper told Mike Hosking aquaculture was recognised for the part it could play, but has yet to flourish due to RMA restrictions. He hopes the fast-track approval processes shortened time frames, certainties, and more nuanced approach could be the circuit breaker to unleash new opportunities.

The Earth's heat produced from radioactive decay in the core has many benefits once recovered and brought to the surface. Most focus is placed on its ability to provide baseload power, which is important, but arguably the most widespread use case being heating and cooling gets overlooked. Geothermal is ubiquitous throughout the planet, however, it does vary by location the feasibility of extracting the resource, but harvesting low temperature resources can be done most anywhere. Once harvested, the use cases are seemingly endless, heat and cool your home, office building, school, grow vegetables, process dairy, aquaculture, and so much more.

The Marine Institute, in partnership with the University of Galway's Socio-Economic Marine Research Unit (SEMRU), has published the latest report on the performance of Ireland's ocean economy, providing a comprehensive analysis of the sector's economic contributions and trends. Key Findings The report reveals that Ireland's ocean economy achieved a turnover of €6.5 billion in 2023, contributing €2.7 billion in Gross Value Added (GVA) and supporting approximately 39,000 jobs. Over the five-year period from 2019 (pre-COVID) to 2023, turnover increased by 20%, GVA rose by 31%, and employment grew by 8%, demonstrating the resilience and steady expansion of the country's marine industries. While the overall turnover and GVA showed moderate declines between 2022 and 2023, eight out of 13 marine sectors experienced growth, reflecting a robust post-pandemic recovery. Sectors such as Shipping, Sea Fisheries, Aquaculture, Seafood Processing, and the Gas industry faced specific challenges contributing to declines, but the broader trends point to a period of adaptation and innovation. Welcoming the report, Dr Rick Officer, CEO of the Marine Institute, stated: "I am delighted that the Marine Institute, in partnership with the University of Galway, has published Ireland's 2024 Ocean Economy Report. This report not only highlights the impressive economic contributions of Ireland's marine industries but also underscores their strategic importance in shaping a sustainable future for our country. Capturing detailed insights and trends, including measuring the economic value of our marine industries, is an important element of our work in supporting the Government with the best available evidence to inform policy. This collaboration, supported by the Central Statistics Office (CSO) and Bord Iascaigh Mhara (BIM), provides a robust analytical framework to inform marine and maritime planning and deliver equitable and sustainable ocean and coastal economies." Commenting on the findings, Professor Stephen Hynes, Director of SEMRU at the University of Galway, said: "It is clear from the data and trends that there is a continuing post-pandemic recovery across most sectors. This remains a period of transition for Ireland's ocean economy as marine industries innovate and respond to new policies and opportunities aimed at addressing the climate and biodiversity crises." Economic and Geographic Insights Ireland's ocean economy extends across 13 industries, each with distinct geographic concentrations. For example, international cruise activity is focused on ports and harbours, marine aquaculture is largely located on the West and South coasts, and the tourism sector - the most geographically widespread - supports enterprises and employment in all coastal counties. The latest demographic analysis from the CSO Census 2022 further underscores the importance of coastal economies, with over 60% of Ireland's population (3.2 million people) living in coastal areas. Future Outlook The report highlights the ongoing resilience of Ireland's marine industries in navigating global economic challenges and adapting to evolving policies on sustainability and climate action. It provides valuable data for policymakers, industry leaders, and community stakeholders to foster a sustainable and equitable future for coastal and ocean economies. Published every year, the report provides an update on Ireland's ocean economy across three main economic indicators: turnover, gross value added (GVA), and employment. The report also provides commentary on changes in Ireland's marine industries over a five-year and ten-year timeframe and presents a comparable analysis and representation of Ireland's ocean economy since 2010. The full report, Ireland's Ocean Economy, 2024, is now available on the Marine Institute's website at Ireland's Ocean Economy, 2024. This year, the report is also accompanied by an interactive data dashboard, Ireland's Ocean Economy Dashboard | Marine Institute.

Today's guest is Andrew Richardson, a leading figure in aquaculture who is making waves in sustainable food production. From his extensive experience in the seafood industry to his innovative outlook, Andrew shares his journey into this vital and ever-growing sector.

James Arthur Smith is the co-founder of Seatopia, focusing on regenerative aquaculture and mercury-safe seafood. Born in San Pedro, California, he spent nearly a decade living on a sailboat in Baja Mexico, deepening his commitment to ocean conservation. Smith's early life included becoming the youngest junior lifeguard to swim the La Jolla open ocean challenge and volunteering at the Chula Vista Marine Science Discovery Center.   In the last eight years, he linked boutique aquaculture with top restaurants, developing a trusted seafood distribution in Southern California.

Animal aquaculture, the farming of fish, has outpaced the amount of wild-caught fish by tens of millions of metric tons each year, bringing with it negative environmental impacts and enabling abuse, says Carl Safina, an ecologist and author. On this episode of Mongabay's podcast, Safina speaks with co-host Rachel Donald about his recent Science Advances essay describing the “moral reckoning” that's required for the industry, pointing to environmental laws in the United States, which put hard limits on pollution, as examples to follow. “In the 1970s in the U.S., we had this enormous burst of environmental legislation. We got the Endangered Species Act, the Clean Air Act, the Clean Water Act, the Toxic Substances Control Act … all of these things were not because somebody invented something new. It's because we felt differently about what was important,” he says. The global fishing industry also contributes to forced labor and other worker abuses, as revealed by whistleblowers and media outlets, including Mongabay.

Abandoned fish farms in Greece are plaguing the coastline with marine debris; however, Healthy Seas is working to clean up some of the sites and raise awareness for support to tell the Greek government that fish farm owners should be responsible for cleaning up their sites once the business is done operating.  In this episode of the "How to Protect the Ocean" podcast, host Andrew Lewin discusses the pressing issue of ghost farms—abandoned fish farms that are polluting oceans, particularly in Greece. The episode highlights the work of the organization Healthy Seas, which is actively involved in cleaning up these ghost farms. Key Points: Definition of Ghost Farms: Ghost farms are abandoned fish farms that were once operational but have been left to deteriorate, leading to significant environmental pollution. Unlike ghost nets, which can be found randomly in the ocean, ghost farms are known sites with identifiable owners. Extent of the Problem: There are over 150 ghost farm sites identified in Greece, with one cleanup in 2024 removing over 40 tons of marine debris, including plastics and fishing nets. The cleanup costs range from 100,000 to 200,000 euros, depending on the site's location and accessibility. Healthy Seas' Approach: Healthy Seas, led by Veronica Mikos, began addressing this issue after encountering a local environmentalist while on a project in Greece. They have since cleaned up two ghost farms and are advocating for better policies and enforcement to prevent future abandonment. Challenges in Cleanup: The cleanups are labor-intensive and require specialized equipment. Many of the materials, such as polystyrene, degrade and pose risks to marine life, as fish may mistake them for food. Policy and Enforcement Issues: Although laws exist regarding environmental protection and aquaculture, enforcement is lacking. Veronica suggests that fish farming companies should be required to deposit funds to cover cleanup costs, ensuring accountability. Community Involvement and Awareness: Healthy Seas emphasizes the importance of raising awareness about ghost farms and involving local communities in discussions about aquaculture practices. They aim to educate future aquaculture professionals about the environmental responsibilities associated with fish farming. The episode concludes with a call to action for better policies and community engagement to ensure that abandoned fish farms are cleaned up and that the aquaculture industry operates sustainably.

The largest solar farm on the ocean is now running off the coast of China as the country continues to invest in ways to support its sustainable energy needs.  In the "How to Protect the Ocean" podcast, host Andrew Lewin discusses China's deployment of the world's largest open sea offshore solar panel farm. The project, developed by CHN Energy, spans 1,223 hectares (3,023 acres) and is located 8 kilometers off the coast of China. It aims to generate one gigawatt of renewable energy and is notable for its innovative use of offshore solar technology. Pros of the Offshore Solar Project Efficient Land Use: Utilizing water bodies for solar energy reduces the need for land clearing and habitat destruction typically associated with land-based solar farms. Reduced Evaporation: The solar panels cover the water surface, which can help conserve water by reducing evaporation rates in reservoirs and agricultural areas. Improved Solar Efficiency: The cooling effect of water can enhance the efficiency of solar panels compared to those installed on land. Dual Use Potential: Floating solar farms can coexist with hydroelectric facilities, optimizing energy production and utilizing existing infrastructure. Algal Bloom Reduction: The solar panels can help suppress harmful algal blooms in aquatic systems by limiting sunlight penetration. Clean Energy Generation: The project contributes to renewable energy production, reducing greenhouse gas emissions and reliance on fossil fuels. Cons of the Offshore Solar Project Impact on Aquatic Systems: The shade from solar panels may alter water temperature and light penetration, potentially disrupting habitats for aquatic plants and animals. Habitat Disruption: The solar farm installation could affect fish spawning areas and migratory patterns, similar to concerns raised about wind farms. Material Degradation: Using plastics and metals in solar structures could lead to microplastic contamination and chemical pollution over time. Recreational Disruption: Floating solar farms may hinder recreational activities, fishing, and navigation in the area. Installation Risks: The anchoring and cabling required for the solar systems could disturb sediments and harm local aquatic habitats. Vulnerability to Weather Events: The structures may be susceptible to damage from storms, hurricanes, and flooding, potentially releasing debris or pollutants into the water. The episode emphasizes the need for careful planning and mitigation strategies to address the potential environmental concerns associated with floating solar farms. While the project presents a promising opportunity for renewable energy generation, it also raises important questions about the ecological impacts on marine environments. The host encourages listeners to engage in the conversation about the balance between renewable energy development and ocean conservation.

A conversation with John Holmyard, founder and managing director of Offshore Shellfish, 21st century mussel farming: guilt-free food that helps regenerate marine biodiversity and captures carbon. We talk about protein. With a growing population, we need more and more of it. So, what is the lowest impact and positive impact protein source we can grow? A deep dive into the largest offshore mussel farm in Europe, where they grow large amounts of mussels by grazing large number of plankton that naturally flows by. And, in case you are wondering, there is so much plankton around because we depleted most of the fish stocks that used to eat a lot of it.We learn all about how to build the largest mussel farm in the UK and how to deal with regulators who have no idea what shellfish farming even means (they think you hunt mussels in the wild). We explore why mussels are such a potential crop to grow, and they can even restore natural mussel reefs, which used to be present all around the North Sea until we started bottom-trawling. And why are politics fundamental to the business when all of your crop goes fresh to mainland Europe? ---------------------------------------------------Join our Gumroad community, discover the tiers and benefits on www.gumroad.com/investinginregenag. Support our work:Share itGive a 5-star ratingBuy us a coffee… or a meal! www.Ko-fi.com/regenerativeagriculture----------------------------------------------------More about this episode on https://investinginregenerativeagriculture.com/john-holmyard.Find our video course on https://investinginregenerativeagriculture.com/course.----------------------------------------------------The above references an opinion and is for information and educational purposes only.
