Aquaculture must be sustained and further developed to meet the demands on seafood, as
the world natural fisheries are declining due to over harvesting and habitat destruction.
The Hawaii Aquaculture Association is the statewide producers’ organization. Its mission is to foster the development of commercial aquaculture production in Hawaii.
I am an aquaculture engineer and partner of ASAKUA company. We have experience on offshore fish farming. Please visit website for further informations: www.asaquaculture.com

Hello Mahmoud, Nice to meet you. Thanks for your concern to my co. We installed a farm in your country last year. I will visit there this summer.

Aloha Benny, nice to see you here. Fish farming is too popular in our country and people used to eat aquaculture fishes. Marine aquaculture in my country is developing rapidly .The main marine fish species cultured are European seabass (Dicentrarchus labrax) and gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata). Floating cages is the main culture system for these two species as the coastal of the Aegean and Mediterranean are suitable for floating cage culture. There are many trout breeding farms in fresh waters too. We can eat cheap fish here through aquaculture.
Aloha Semira,
Iyi akşamlar.
Welcome to AquacultureHub. Would tell more about your cage system. The issue of offshore aquaculture is now discussed since many see it as the future solution for seafood but at the same time many oppose it. Can you tell us more about this situation in Turkey?
Thank you and Güle güle.
