Pollock front and center again, despite no one knowing why

November 20, 2009

Pollock quotas likely to drop again | www.publicbroadcasting.net

The latest prediction on the Total Allowable Catch totals for the USA pollock industry for 2010 appear to be solidly in favor of lowering them once again. This makes Greenpeace happy (not really) but is bad news for the industry as a whole. Jobs will be lost, companies may be headed for continued hard times. Yet most consumers of fish say, so what, I never eat pollock. How wrong they are.

November 9, 2009

Can Aquaculture Feed the World | blueridgepress.com

We read more and more about aquaculture and how the industry is progressing, and reading about its issues of concern as well. We see that the carnivores of the industry may be more of a problem than a solution. We must work on a better feed to product ratio, but more importantly, we have part of the solution, tilapia culture.

We have no idea what happens to the salmon when they go out to sea, but they always return. Well, up until now they have returned, this year they did not.

The appropriate Canadian authority is out to find the answer, they also should seek a solutions, looking forward, for the industry as a whole.

Ecuador Shrimp Problems May Be Good News For US Shrimpers

October 22, 2009

The Disappearance of Ecuador’s Mangroves | fishfarmaz.com

The USA shrimp industry has taken its share of hits lately. The imports form China, Cental and South America have caused the prices to drop to a point where US wild shrimp just seems to expensive to the average consumer.

Did CBS Just Wake Up To The Growing Salmon Problem

October 21, 2009

Salmon Industry in Deep Water | www.cbsnews.com

The story presented by CBS recently is a great illustration on why no one outside the industry seems to be aware of our growing crisis. Unfortunately food production, fisheries and more directly the farmed salmon industry does not garner the headlines. Well not yet, although they do at times, when it is not a crisis but a catastrophe. I believe we could be close to that catastrophe. The population needs to start paying closer attention to the ever worsening developments in our food chain.

Salmon Problems Continue To Accumulate, Needlessly

October 17, 2009

Jacob Scherr's BlogBlown Away by Bristol Bay? Take Action on Climate Change on October 24th | switchboard.nrdc.org

We recently read about the billion dollar wild salmon industry in Alaska and its well documented problems. Some, inflicted by climate change, and how this is crippling a this billion dollar industry. In the short term we appear to be helpless. However, to see the latest developments out of Bristol Bay's hard rock mining venture, and to realize what this could mean to the industry and for wild life, is unconscionable.
