Impact of Pond Waste (Sludge) and its Management for Sustainable Vannamei Shrimp Culture Practice

Management of aquaculture related sludge and its impact on the environment is a major concern in almost all the major shrimp and fish producing countries.
It is important that all the concerned stakeholders follow a responsible approach to this issue looking into the future of sustainable aquaculture development in that region.
With international aquaculture related certifications like ASC becoming an important factor during the export and sales, I believe more and more aquaculturists and farmers take waste management and disposal seriously than ever before.
It is also important that the required treatment areas and methodologies are incorporated into the aquaculture project planning at the starting stages itself. The scientific community should also look forward into developing effective waste treatment, recycling and disposal related research techniques, projects and methodologies.

Thanks for your nice comments
and proper guidelines should come from experts to overcome SLUDGE problems in aquaculture.
