About Conference

Aquaculture 2023 invites all participants from around the world to attend the 14th Global Summit on Aquaculture and Fisheries (GSAF-2023) from December 06-07, 2023 Dubai, UAE. This global conference features quick presentations, oral lectures, poster presentations and exhibits.

With the assistance of an additional 1,000 scientific societies, organizes more than 3,000 international events, including more than 300 conferences, over 500 forthcoming and past symposia, and workshops throughout the United States, Europe, and Asia.

Aquaculture is the practice of reproducing aquatic organisms, such as fish, mollusks, crustaceans, and aquatic plants, and is the focus of a fisheries conference that brings together a diverse group of experts from around the world. These experts include aquaculture engineers, researchers, and policy makers from academia and industry. Agriculture requires some kind of breeding process intervention to increase output, such as regular storage, feeding, predator protection, production gains from different regions of the world, and the proportion that comes from aquaculture. Aquaculture is crucial in ensuring that there is an adequate supply of nutrient-rich food to feed the expanding global population. But doing so necessitates an equivalent increase in the feed supply.

Aquaculture Conference offers the following advantages:

• Encourages effective communication and gathering among persons engaged in cutting-edge fisheries and aquaculture projects on a national and worldwide scale.

• Increase the sharing of information, expertise, and research developments on pertinent issues to ensure that  aquatic resources are used, developed, and conserved to their fullest potential.

• Motivate young scientists and researchers to carry out better research and studies that will create new opportunities for a better society.

•   Efforts to increase collaboration among pertinent governmental and non-governmental institutions.

•  Seek to increase public awareness by discussing various developments and difficulties in the aquaculture and fishing industries as well as by showcasing cutting-edge goods and services at exhibitions.

Sessions & Tracks

Track 1: Aquaculture Nutrition

Aquacultures are simply defined as aquatic organisms. Fish require the same nutrients that all animals require for health and reproductive growth. It includes proteins, minerals, and vitamins. The main objective of aquaculture nutrition is to balance the food portion which should be composed of fish meal and fish oil at the average rate. Improved efficiencies in aquatic nutrition and aqua feed development are essential to the long-term development of local aquaculture industry.

Track 2: Shellfish Farming

Shellfish farming helps to improve sediment quality by loosening and dispersing silt and muck, and helps add oxygen to bottom waters and sediments. Filter-feeding bivalve molluscs are an essential link between the bottom-dwelling aquatic communities and phytoplankton production in the water column. Shellfish are highly efficient water filters that directly remove particulate material thus reducing turbidity and both directly and indirectly removing nitrogen and other nutrients. Via this process, these highly efficient water purifiers remove or reduce organic matter, nutrients, silt, bacteria and viruses, and improve clarity and light transmission which, in turn, improves the condition of critical habitat, including survival of critical habitat species such as sea grasses and other submerged vegetation.

Track 3: Environmental Impacts in Aquaculture

Impacts of aquaculture on the environment are increasing. The main influence of aquaculture on water quality is to increase the suspended substances and the nutritional salts in water. It is an important issue as aquaculture expands globally. In South East Asia shellfish are produced heavily and poorly managed. Farmed fish are generally free from environmental contaminants such as heavy metals. Environmental impacts of aquaculture are dependent upon the species farmed.

Track 4: Aquaculture Disease and Health Management

The infectious disease poses one of the most significant threats to successful aquaculture. Negative environmental effects may occur serious oxygen shortage caused by disintegrating natural substances. There will be no treatment for viral diseases. Most of the fish diseases are restricted to fish and poses no risk to handlers. It’s essential to report any infections or diseases to fish as quickly as time permits. This leads to early administration and regulation of pathogens for the regular environment.

Track 5: Fishery Resource Analysis and Monitoring

The Fishery Resource Analysis and Monitoring, monitors ground fish and halibut fishing activities in the Federal fisheries off Alaska and conducts research associated with sampling commercial fishery catches, estimation of catch and by catch mortality, and analysis of fishery-dependent data. The division is responsible for training, briefing, debriefing, and oversight of observers who collect catch data onboard fishing vessels and at onshore processing plants and for quality control/quality assurance of the data provided by these observers.

Track 6: Genetic Biodiversity in Aquaculture

Genetic biodiversity helps produce the variety of shapes, sizes, behavior, and colours that make aquatic species valuable and interesting. It also allows species to adapt to new farming systems new habitats. Without genetic biodiversity there would be no special varieties or breeds of aquatic species eventually species would go extinct as they would be unable to cope with climate change add other changes to their environment

Track 7: Marine Ecology and Biological Oceanography

Biological oceanography is analogous to marine biology, but is different because of the perspective used to study the ocean. Biological oceanography takes a bottom up approach (in terms of the food web), while marine biology studies the ocean from a top down perspective.

Marine biology is the study of marine organisms, their actions and relations with the terrain. Marine biologists study natural oceanography and the associated fields of chemical, physical, and geological oceanography to understand marine organisms.

Track 8: Fisheries Sciences

Fisheries Science is a department of marine science that offers with studies on the existence history and state of fish stocks. The term ‘existence history’ refers to the widely wide-spread biology of a fish stock. The time period ‘state of a fish stock’ refers to the range and weight of fish in the stock i.e. current stock biomass in tonnes.

Track 9: Animal Welfare in Aquaculture

Aquaculture is an important farming activity in EU. Farming of fish has increased in recent years and science to access welfare is evolving. Fish nurture in aquaculture systems faces numerous welfare challenges of appropriate production facilities to ensure the well-being of growing numbers of farmed fish are critical. A key welfare. The development and implementation problem for farm fish is infection by disease and parasite. To align welfare issues should follow some welfare rules for freedom fish like Freedom from hunger and thirst, discomfort, pain, and injury, from fear and stress.

Track 10: Sustainability in Aquaculture

Aquaculture and fishery are one of the important sectors in the economy. Sustainable aquaculture is a dynamic concept and sustainability vary with species, location and, state of knowledge and technology. Aquaculture should have environmental as well as economic sustainability. Sustainability of species depends on feeding and lifecycle habitats. Aquaculture can improve the sustainability of small scales farms. Multiple uses of water are an important aspect of the sustainable aquaculture system.

Track 11: Immunology & Microbiology of Aquatic Species

Aquatic Microbiology is dedicated to the advancement of microbial research in aqueous environments, with an emphasis on freshwater, estuarine, and oceanic ecosystems. Aquatic microbes have a variety of roles in ecosystems and are essential to the biogeochemical cycles on the planet. Aquatic microorganisms are also genetically, physiologically, and environmentally varied, with a wide range of evolutionary, adaptive, and physiological responses. Organisms' immune systems defend them against parasites, pathogens, and viruses. The majority of what we know about the composition, function, and regulation of the two basic branches of the immune system, innate immunity and adaptive immunity, comes from mouse and human studies. However, there has recently been a surge in interest in fish immunology for a variety of reasons. Fish immune systems serve as useful comparative outgroups for evolutionary biologists studying immune system evolution. Such comparisons should eventually lead to a better understanding of immune system design principles in general. production.

Track 12: Fisheries Conservation & Management

Fisheries management is the movement to secure fish assets so that sustainable misuse is conceivable, building on fisheries science and relying on prudent guidelines. Advanced fisheries administration is often referred to as an administrative framework of appropriate administrative rules based on characterized destinations and a mixture of administration involves executing the rules, which are put in place by a control framework and of recognition. A common approach is the biological system approach to fisheries administration.

Track 13: Fish culture

Fish culture is the process of raising desirable species of fishes in prison and managing them and their terrain to ameliorate growth and reduplication. Fishes are reared in fish granges, or hatcheries, much as ranch creatures are raised in the barnyard.

Through monoculture, our abysses, swell, and inland freshwaters hold huge implicit to give us with increased quantities of healthy and nutritional food. This is demanded to feed an ever growing mortal population so monoculture helps us with our' food security'.

The aspects of fish culture practice involve the use of organic coprolites and inorganic diseases in phytoplankton product that's the part of husbandry practice, still minding, rearing, breeding of fishes are coming under beast husbandry

Track 14: Mariculture

Mariculture is an exertion involving food product for mortal consumption. It's an exertion in which submarine organisms both shops and creatures are dressed in a confined terrain in the submarine medium which may be fully marine or marine mixed to colorful degrees with freshwater in the brackish water areas.

Monoculture is husbandry of swab water and brackish organisms like finfish, crustaceans molluscs and submarine shops. Mariculture, on the other hand is a technical sect of monoculture that's accepted in marine surroundings.

Track 15: Sustainable use of marine resources

Oceans, seas and coastal areas form an integrated and essential component of the Earth’s ecosystem and are critical to sustainable development. International law, as reflected in the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS), provides the legal framework for the conservation and sustainable use of the oceans and their resources. This Focus Area on marine resources, oceans and seas integrates the three pillars of sustainable development and has also many interlink ages to the other Focus Areas. It can contribute to: food security and nutrition, climate change, sustainable consumption and production, energy, sustainable cities and human settlements, disaster risk reduction, sustainable agriculture, land desertification, forests, ecosystems and biodiversity, women’s empowerment, employment and sustainable tourism.

Track 16: Pond culture

Pond culture is a veritably popular monoculture product system with numerous submarine species dressed in ponds. To have successful pond product, ponds must be duly sited and erected, with careful assessment of water vacuity, volume, and quality

Advantages of pond culture include its simplicity, and fairly low labour conditions ( piecemeal from the harvesting of the fish). It also has low energy conditions. A major disadvantage is that the ranch operation is more dependent on rainfall and other natural factors that are beyond the planter's control.

They're an important source of food, sanctum, and shade for the small creatures that live in the pond. They also serve to reduce evaporation, purify water by removing redundant minerals, help the overgrowth of algae, and indeed control the mosquito population.
