Fish farms, like the one above, account for over half of the world's fish supply (Credit: USDA NRCS CA/ CC-BY-2.0/ Wikimedia Commons)

Fish farming is a form of aquaculture in which fish are raised in enclosures to be sold as food. They account for over half of the world's fish supply and are vital for meeting the needs of an ever-growing human population. However, fish farms currently face a big challenge — waste management.

    I learned about aquaculture in one of my classes, and I must say, balancing out the harmful and the good by implementing natural means of waste control is a super cost effective way to run not just a fish farm, but also wide range ranching and so one! For example, when cows and other grazing animals poop on the ground, farmers bring around chickens to help eat them so the waste doesn't contaminate a nearby water source! Weird but super effective!
