Salmon Disappearance Causes Ecological Disaster | www.thefishsite.com

Just when we thought the news could not possibly get any worse, it does. The Sockeye in the Frasier river failed to return and in the latest news, the north coast Chum Salmon are no where to be seen. As the referenced article suggests, this is an ecological disaster that is having dramatic impacts on another species. The bears of Canada are now dying from starvation. Whose next?

Salmon May Not Be The Answer, Farmed Fish And Canada's Other Opportunity

September 10, 2009

Canada missing boat on aquaculture | www2.canada.com

The seafood industry is rife with news; recent reports, new data and information, and we see more opportunity arising in the aquaculture fields especially. The industry is expanding daily, yet we see Canada, with great potential, not taking advantage of opportunities that are presenting themselves. Canada has vast resources and abilities, but due to the anti-salmon farming lobby, wild salmon industry supporters and some misguided perceptions, these opportunities may not be realized.

The Billion Dollar Wild Salmon Industry Has Lost It's Salmon

September 4, 2009

Canada: Millions of Salmon Fail to Return | www.realtruth.org

Acidic water, ocean temperature change, sea lice and warmer river waters do not bode well for the return of the Canadian wild salmon. This poses a loss of 1.6 billion dollars to the industry. With some of the environmental issues spinning out of control, and out of the control of the fishery managers, certainly no quick fix is in site. Is it then crazy to even think about farmed salmon in Alaska, probably.

Pollock, Biomass And The Rise in Our Ocean's Temperatures, Loom Large

Warm Sea Temperatures Whet Krill Appetite, Put Seafood at Risk | www.bloomberg.com

Overfishing has been a problem in the fisheries industry for many years. It has decimated species worldwide. We may be finally seeing positive change in our management of these same fisheries through better management and cooperation of nations. However, the warming of our oceans could prove devastating. This issue will prove to be impossible to solve in the short term. It also will illustrate that overfishing will pale in comparison in it's effect.

Aquaculture, Microalgae and Saltwater Could Help Alter Our Worlds Water Crisis

August 25, 2009

Our Water Supply, Down the Drain | www.washingtonpost.com

Land based aquaculture near our oceans utilizing species that tolerate or need saltwater for survival, along with microalgae being farmed in the same grow out ponds, algaculture, could be a partial answer of our two most daunting world problems, potable water and oil. Combining the three elements will save potable water, grow food for human consumption as well as provide bio fuels for industry and transportation.

Europe in a Bind Over Biotech Policy

August 24, 2009

EU stance on GM could decimate UK livestock production | www.farmersguardian.com

The EU's resistance to biotechnology is this year threatening to cause dire consequences for the EU's livestock and poultry industries. That is because regulators have found minute amounts of unapproved biotech corn events in soymeal made from U.S. soybeans. Under the EU's zero tolerance policy for unapproved biotech events this has forced the stoppage of about 200,000 mt of soymeal and effectively foreclosed the U.SD. as a source of soybeans and soymeal. That could be a disaster

American Soybean Association delegation meets with French industry | bioenergy.checkbiotech.org

Because of the severe drought which cut South American soybean production this year by over 20 mmt the EU will need to import large amounts of soybeans and soymeal from the U.S. However, that will not be possible unless the EU changes its policies quickly to allow imports containing trace amounts of unapproved corn events.

Salmon For The Masses May Be Coming To An End

August 18, 2009

Chilean salmon industry plunges into an abyss of pesticides and antibiotics | www.grist.org

Salmon pricing continues to fall due to the lack of demand here in the States. We are seeing wild caught salmon now being used as fish food. This short lived trend will come to an end, as will the dominance of Chilean farmed raised salmon. These elements could be the early indicators that the farmed salmon industry, as we know it today, will be changing dramatically in the future.
