520			_a"Fish are a very high source of proteins and have great nutritional value. Sustainable fish farming is key to reducing global hunger and poverty. Today, fish provides more than one billion poor people with most of their daily animal protein. Fish production was initially dependent on fish capturing. However, most of the captured fish were used for industrial purposes and were hardly consumed by man. Therefore, an alternative method to increase fish production was devised that includes farming and husbandry of economically important aquatic organisms. Fish provides nutrients and micronutrients that are essential to cognitive and physical development, especially in children, and are an important part of a healthy diet. As an affordable animal source of protein in some of the poorest countries, fish is the primary source of nutrition, creating growing demand for this staple. However, fish supplies are failing to meet demand and there are major shortages in some critically poor countries where they are needed most. Globally, more than 250 million people depend directly on fisheries and aquaculture for their livelihoods and millions are employed in fisheries and aquaculture value chains in roles such as processing or marketing. The very poor often rely on fishing as a primary source of income. These small-scale fishers are particularly vulnerable as fish stocks diminish. Increased productivity from sustainable fisheries and aquaculture can be a driver for rural development by mitigating risks to livelihoods and contributing to income generation and employment. Entrepreneur's Guide of Fish Farming focuses on raising fish commercially in tanks or enclosures such as fish ponds, usually for food. It will update readers on today's fish facts and technical information, including market trends and general expectations to succeed in fish farming. Topics covered in this guide include: shellfish aquaculture, genetics of fish, politics of the ocean, fish processing, aquaculture systems engineering. It explores on fish farming, fish processing, value addition and marketing. By studying aquaculture and fisheries, future professionals use theories and concepts, develop knowledge of animal breeding, processing and evaluation of their productions. Students will understand and adapt scientific knowledge in aquaculture and natural resource conservation, planning and development. An aquaculture specialist will keep up to date with innovations in the fisheries sector and may take up responsibilities such as protecting resources from overfishing, the dangers of industrial waste and pollution. This book will guide you along your journey to successfully rearing fish providing a practical and succinct overview-from existing methods and operations to recent trends and their impacts on aquaculture for the future"-- Back cover.
