Fish-farming practices come under scrutiny amid surge in aquaculture

While activists and industry figures are at odds over the magnitude of the problem, both agree that aquaculture throughout Asia needs to be better managed while supporting small-scale farmers to address the issue of fish welfare.
Production of farmed fish grew by 527% worldwide from 1990-2018; production of wild-caught fish during the same period rose by just 14%.
 

A new report alleges poor animal welfare conditions on fish farms in Indonesia, one of the world’s leading producers of fish products.

Produced by Act for Farmed Animals (AFFA), a coalition of animal rights groups, the report features undercover footage showing fish in unsanitary conditions, living in crammed and overstocked pens, and being skinned and filleted while still alive.
