Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The coordination of research and development activities involves the application of modern technologies to rear different fish species and increase expected production. Any form of aquaculture practiced in modernized farming systems (e.g., RAS, raceways) through the adaptation of feed to the nutritional requirements of the cultured species and the carrying capacity of the system contributes to the development and optimization of applied technologies to achieve high fish production. Current concerns about the replacement of animal protein sources with plant protein sources in feed, the use of biotic complexes as an alternative to decreasing the use of antibiotics and chemotherapeutic substances, and reducing the impact of diseases in the context of existing climate change require the identification of viable technological solutions that can lead to the final product in conditions of food safety and security.
