AIS-HACCP for Aquaculture and Baitfish Operations

Although baitfish and aquaculture industries pose no or a very low risk of spreading aquatic invasive species (AIS), the industries have been proactive in implementing systems to help ensure that any potential risk is minimized. Without adequate risk assessment of individual operations, regulations could be imposed which would unnecessarily negatively impact the viability of these industries and still not effectively reduce the risk of spreading AIS.

Antibiotic Resistance in Aquaculture

Antimicrobial resistance poses a serious threat to human health, and there is much public concern regarding antibiotic use in aquaculture as a possible contributing factor. Regardless of whether antibiotic use in aquaculture is functionally related to the development of resistance in
important human pathogens, antimicrobial resistance is relevant in that it may reduce the effectiveness of the limited treatment options available for fish health management.

Regulatory Costs of U.S. Aquaculture Business

Many aquaculture producers and scientists have long pointed to an excessively burdensome regulatory environment in the U.S. as a constraint to growth and development of U.S. aquaculture.

This 1-hour webinar will present results of the first-ever study to measure the specific costs of regulations on one segment of U.S. aquaculture.
