    Getting serious about aquaculture risk

    Chemical and pathogenic hazards in aquaculture supply chains threaten the provision of safe aquatic food. The Seafood Risk Tool is an integrated, semi-quantitative system that develops bespoke supply chain and risk management strategies.Although wild fish catches have plateaued globally, the aquaculture sector continues to expand in response to increasing demand for fish and other aquatic foods.
