Aquaculture is the practice of farming fish by rearing them in tanks, ponds, or ocean net pens. This process provides a controlled environment for fish to grow and reproduce, which helps to reduce pressure on wild fish populations. Aquaculture can also help to meet the growing demand for seafood in a sustainable way.
