5 Global production fisheries & aquaculture Nearly half from China 70% Tacon & Metian 2015 Reviews in Fisheries Science & Aquaculture
6 The role of aquaculture?..in terms of efficiency, fish in aquaculture systems are very efficient converters of feed into protein in fact far more efficient than most terrestrial livestock system.
7 Fish eat fish Master, I marvel how the fishes live in the sea. Why, as men do a-land; the great ones eat up the little ones. Shakespeare, Pericles, prince of Tyre Cartoon by Frits Ahlefelt
8 Major categories of feed ingredients in aquaculture feeds 72 % Protein and oil % = total combined protein and oil 47 % 80 % 67 % Tacon & Metian 2015 Reviews in Fisheries Science & Aquaculture
9 Feed, food and nutrition FCR = kg formula feed pr kg meat proportion protein + fat in feed Metabolizable energy ME (Kcal/g) Fats 8.5 Protein 4.5 Carbohydrates kg meat pr kg protein + fat fed Edible Yield fraction Kg edible meat per kg P+F Relative cost per kg meat Salmon Chicken Pig Source: Torrissen et al Fish are very efficient metabolizers of protein because of low cost of nitrogen excretion, but they are very poor metabolizers of carbohydrates, the cheapest and most abundant energy source in Nature 2. nutritional bioenergetics in fish

17 Log Biomass The aquatic food web is size structured Top predators Tertiary consumers Secondary consumers Primary consumers Size Primary producers..abundance is inversely correlated with size
18 Log Biomass Community size spectrum The distribution of biomass by body size follows regular patterns phytoplankton zooplankton Small fish Large fish Size Under conventional selective fishing slope and intercept will change
19 Log Biomass Changes in the North Sea Unfished Size Garcia et al. 2012
20 How do we reconcile global objectives? UNCLOS 1982; Johannesburg 2002 Declaration 31 (a): «Stocks should be kept at biomass levels that can produce maximum sustainable yields (MSY).» CBD Malawi principles for Ecosystem Approach: «A key feature of the ecosystem approach includes conservation of ecosystem structure and functioning»
21 Biomass Balanced harvesting (Garcia et al 2012) It will reconcile objectives by maintaining community structure while returning highest yields Size.. is fishing as many sizes and species as possible in proportion to natural productivity
22 How to measure the balance? Distance from 1:1 line gives fishing pressure Slope gives fishing pattern (ideal slope = 1) Kolding et al. in prep
23 Global fishing pattern (151 ecosystems) Low trophic level forage fish High trophic level carnivores Kolding et al. in prep
24 Temperate fisheries (ICES, North Pacific) Slope not significantly different from 0! Kolding et al. in prep
25 Tropical fisheries Kolding et al. in prep
26 Balanced harvest will reconcile objectives Johannesburg 2002 Declaration 31 (a) (MSY): We can sustainably increase the amount of food harvested (by fishing lower in the food chain) CBD Malawi principles for Ecosystem Approach: While keeping the ecosystem structure and functioning
