Aquaculture biotechnology could bring us closer to achieving the growing demands of world

aquaculture. These include the global needs of increased food production, discovery and
development of new natural resources. The reason for this topic to be chosen is that the
aquaculture is the farming and the husbandry of aquatic organisms and as it is the fastest growing
food sector in the world with its increasing role for the economy and safe food strategy of the
countries. Due to depletion of the fish stocks farming of aquatic organisms is now a substantial
global industry supplying a significant proportion of the aquatic food consumed. Aquaculture
outputs will need to be enhanced several foods in order to meet the rising demands for fish and
aquatic products. Biotechnology in this field seems to be good potential for increasing
aquaculture activity for example with the presence of fish breeding technology and
biotechnology in aquaculture offers valuable applications that could in improve selective
breeding hybridization production and health to the in terms of the aquaculture.

The importance of the fish breeding in the aquaculture biotechnology and the significance to
society, engineering and technologist.

The importance of aquaculture biotechnology is that it ensures that a constant supply of aquatic
species for human consumption cannot be overstated. Other benefits of this technology to the
society is that medical research into the health benefits of frequently eating fish is plentiful for
example the Omega-3 fatty acids that mainly found in fish also reduce many forms of cancer and
promote healthy brain tissue and also reduced the risk factors of heart disease that are actually
much more healthier that protein from livestock which is actually beneficial to the society. The
use of fish breeding technology for the farming of the fish will eventually increase the
production of the fish population that will beneficial to the society when we compared to other
agricultural technologies.

The significance of the aquaculture biotechnology and the fish breeding technology to the
engineering is that aquaculture biotechnology could bring us closer to achieving the growing
demands of world aquaculture. These include the global needs of increased food production,
discovery and development of new natural resources as well as awareness of the diminishing
biodiversity and detrimental effects of modern society on the environment. In the following
review some of the different areas of aquaculture which are being affected will be described.
Examples, including those from our own research, will be given in an attempt to demonstrate the
versatility of these new approaches. Engineering in terms of aquaculture biotechnology is
concerned with improving the quality of human life by developing and maintaining complex
physical infrastructures necessary for the functioning of the modern society. The importance of
engineering to the rapidly developing coastal and inland aquaculture industry cannot be over
stressed and also the inadequate application engineering in aquaculture fish farms. Engineering
in aquaculture covers a very large area of knowledge and involves many general engineering
specialisms such as mechanical engineering, environmental engineering, materials technology,
genetic technology instrumentation, and monitoring, and building design and construction. The
primary aim of aquaculture engineering is to utilize technical engineering knowledge and
principles in aquaculture and biological production systems.

The significance of the aquaculture biotechnology and fish breeding towards technologist is the
application of new technology that related to aquaculture has been used and increase the demand
of technologist job in the aquaculture industry. Many factors have made this growth possible.
One of it is the development within the field of aquaculture with help of technology for example
improvements in technology allowing reduced consumption of freshwater and development of
re-use systems. Another is the development of offshore cages: sites that until a few years ago not
were viable for aquaculture purposes can be used today with good results. The focus on
economic efficiency and the fact the salaries are increasing have also resulted in the increased
use of technology to reduce staff numbers. The development of new aquaculture species would
not have been possible without the contribution of the fisheries technologist. Even if some
techniques can be transferred for the farming of new species, there will always be a need for
technology to be developed and optimized for each species. An example of this is the
development of production tanks for flatfish with a larger bottom surface area than those used for
pelagic fish.
