The World Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) predict that the world’s population will reach over 9 billion within 2050, which is approximately 34% higher than today. Nearly all of this population increase is expected to occur in developing countries. Urbanization will also continue at an accelerated pace, and about 70% of the world’s population will become urban over next 3 decades (compared to 49% today). In addition, income levels in 2050 will be many multiples of what they are now. Hence, the biggest challenge in the future will be to find ways to feed this larger, more urban and richer population. FAO has forecasted sea catches to stop growing at 85 – 90 million tonnes a year and all incremental demands would have to be met by culturing. By 2030 aquaculture production is estimated to reach more than 90 – 95 million tonnes, a prognosis based on 3% annual growth. Moreover, to support projected food demands in 2050, production must rise an estimated 70% above current values to allow the global population to continue to consume seafood products at the current rate. Thus, the expected deficits in food supply the next decades are currently being targeted by several stakeholders, NGOs and Governments around the world.

Feeding and Feed Management Carps

This study reviews the aquaculture of Indian major carps, rohu (Labeo rohita), catla (Catla catla) and mrigal (Cirrhinus cirrhosus) with special reference to current feeding and feed management practices in Andhra Pradesh, India. The study is based on a survey of 106 farmers from four regions in Andhra Pradesh (Kolleru, Krishna, West Godavari, and Nellore). Kolleru and the surrounding districts of Krishna and West Godavari are the primary culture areas. In Nellore district, Indian major carp culture is practiced at a lower intensity to that practiced in Kolleru. In East Godavari district, Indian major carps are primarily cultured in polyculture systems with either black tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon) or giant river prawns (Macrobrachium rosenbergii). While the study primarily focused on the feed management practices associated with Indian major carp production, management practices that are used under polyculture conditions with other species-groups were also assessed.

Seaweed
Seaweed has been used in Asian medicine for at least 3,000 years and a recent study by Newcastle University in the UK suggested it could be added to bread, biscuits and yogurt to reduce the fat absorbed by the body.
Its nutritional value comes from the nutrients it assimilates from the oceans and the Earth's crust, resulting in it having one of the highest mineral concentrations of any food. It can regulate hormones, improve metabolism and make skin more youthful. It is also rumoured to be good for mental health.
Purple Dulse seaweed is among the most popular as it avoids the fishy taste associated with some varieties. Products, such as crackers, sushi nori and dried seaweed are exported around the world by producers such as Chinese company Shantou Jiasheng and Saha Siam in Thailand.
