RAS- Recirculating Aquaculture Systems

Diversification in aquaculture is presented as an alternative for achieving that sustainable growth. Diversification directs to a feasible economy, for not only would it support on only a small number of sectors (or in the case of aquaculture, a small products or production systems), but would lead to the creation of jobs in diverse sectors and the demand for unique professions and a ecological system, thereby preventing the excessive use of natural reserves. Due to the abovementioned, diversity has an useful part to play in achieving aquaculture based on sustainable development. Diversification in aquaculture production should be developed through cultivating hydro-biological resources which, in technical terms, are easy to execute and handle, creating new investment substitutes in both the industrial and traditional fishing sectors.
