Inside The World's Biggest Fish Farm
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 พ.ย. 2021
- By 2050, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations predicts that the world's population will reach 9.1 billion people. This is 34% more than it is today. To eliminate mass hunger, food supplies must grow at a faster pace, and world food production must increase by 70%. Current methods of fish farming will not be able to meet the global demand for fish safely and sustainably. In this video, we will tell you how the new largest and most complex fish farm in the world works, and whether similar technologies are able to provide us with food in the future. Wild fish stocks are declining at a rapid pace. The World Wildlife Fund estimates that 53% of the fishing grounds are fully developed, and the global fleet of fishing vessels is two to three times higher than the sustainable state of the world's seas and oceans. If we do not cut back fishing in the very near future, then all types of wild commercial fish could disappear by the middle of the century.

The fish would eventually just be like f that
after ~100 years whole planet will be a big huge farm. No more freedom for animals everything all nature and life will be super controlled and farmed.
In 2021 world pop. was around 7.5 to 7.8 billion. If it reaches 9.1 billion in 2050, it's not 34% more than the actual pop.
9.1 - 7.5 = 1.6 =》 1.6 / 7.5 × 100 = 21.33%.
We will kill ourselves for resources by then. The earth cannot comfortably support this burgeoning population. Its systems are strained beyond what they can support now!
These projections are highly suspect ; my own limited research suggests population will start to fall but this does not fit the fearful future narrative
dont forget on 34% pop increas they would need 70% more food unless I understood wrong
Because they throw 50% away...
It's almost like it's thinly disguised fear porn WEF propaganda.
I wanted to know more about the fish farm. Instead I was told about global food shortages, too many fishing boats, fish farms that destroy the environment, etc. The actual content for this 7 minute video starts at 2:30. All i wanted to know was how this worked and i got no answers.
Well, I'm a farmer considering to get in the fish business, eventually I could help you a little bit
but knowing the purpose of this fish farm is important too, we need the context for the product
@@pkflex1614 Another way to convert inedible protein from soybean into high quality human food
Yeah, it’s called propaganda. Fear mongering.
I agree with you and thank you for showing that time stamp despite still how little they showed us
So the same Norwegian salmon reported to be one of the worst foods to eat? If that report was accurate, what's the point of continuing the practice... And what's the point of this lie filled video
Salmar funded in suppose?
That "report" is a satanic fraudulent piece of international defamation, a highly profitable industry
There is no lies on this video, but the one you're talking about is in such a way a filthy and heinous crime against the salmoners and the gullible souls watching it that the perpetrators deserve to rot in jail for life
CHINA
Toward the end I felt like they were trying to sell me an automatic fish farm
Fish farming still leaves me puzzled as to the logic: fishing wild fish to make dehydrated fish powder to feed fish farming, hence depleting reserves of of (poor) local population who rely on artisanal small-scale fishing.
And spreads diseases to wild population leading to wild population declines.
I can confirm this happens on the small island I work on.
After spending 30 years in the fish business. We quit buying Norwegian salmon because of the antibiotics they used that could adversely hurt humans. I did not hear them address this problem. Sea lice are common on most marine species
Antibiotics are hardly used in Norwegian fishfarming at all, i think only Chile really uses this anymore
@@callemacody then maybe things have changed. How else do they treat salmon with tail rot?
@@patrickmartin400 you're right Patrick. Their fish is not healthy, abysmal compared to wild salmon
@@callemacody I understand that the old methods of farm fishing required high doses of antibiotics due to the crowded, dirty water that was basically filled with shit. This method has constant filtering with the ocean water. I'm sure there's a ton of adverse effects that they aren't telling us though.
Norwegian salmon is god.
Norwegian salmon fish farms are not farms. They are oceanic feed lots. A mussel or oyster farm is a farm. It utilizes the production of the ocean's primary production to produce a produce a product just as a sheep farm, which only uses the grass produced on the farm, produces a product. A Norwegian, so called, fish farm uses fish meal from fish caught, mainly off the coast of Peru and products from land farms to make a fish feed which is all the fish eat. And here is the kicker. You may have heard that when feeding fish (or chickens or other animals) you get a 2:1 conversion factor. In other words a kg of fish food produces half a kg of fish (some of which is bone, guts and other waste). Absolutely true in a commercial sense. You pay a certain amount per kg of fish food and get so much per kg for your fish. But biologically it is a myth. The food is dry, typically under 7% water, while the fish is wet, typically over 80% water. Do the actual math and you will find that only about 10% of the feed becomes fish, just as you were taught in biology. It takes a ton of phytoplankton to make 100kg of zooplankton which makes 10kg of penguin, which makes 1kg of leopard seal. Which means that 90% of the food you feed to the fish goes into the water as faces, urine and exhaled carbon dioxide. That is why the oceanic feed lots are so so polluting. We would be better off to find neat ways to eat the anchovy which are fished off the coast of Peru and to eat the land based components of the fish feed.
Farmed salmon is gross. We will not eat it.
The data is based on dry matter, moron urbanite "specialist in fisheries"
That being said, fish waste can be used as a resource for growing vegetables and other similar foods, but not in systems shown in this video.
Very well thought out comment, thanks for sharing so much info
you are faming fish therefore it's a fish farm
This should be properly labelled as an advertisement.
Norwegian salmon are the most posionous fish found today. We have global reports on that. Profit over health is motto of most agri businesses.
I aim to not be one of those farms and I'm going to use the profits to fight against the cycle of poverty and hunger.
Indeed, I watched a youtube video about how the fish pellets they feed the fish are mainly made from bottom dwelling fish of the baltic sea, a sea known to be highly polluted, especially in the deepest parts where the bottom dwellers live.
I WAS ABOUT TO SAY THAT. THIS DREAM FROM CHINA SOUNDS TO GOOD TO BE EVEN CLOSE TO THE TRUTH
Having these farms will ruin the fishing industry in Norway in the future. They are very short sighted.
@N. Warner It's a very good motto, too!
The slogan "People before profits!" is every bit as retarded as "Stomachs before food!"
2:22 - It is out of this world that shipping this behemoth that far is still more cost effective than building this structure locally.
I think, to ship this thing takes time. But to build this structure locally, you'll need time + money + technology to get the factory done, before you can build this giant machine.
cheap labor
Construction is thousands of work hours, shipping is a couple tug boats for 3 months, a pay raise of 5% for the workers constructing it is much more significant than the cost of shipping.
Shipping costs are insignificant, which is why pears are grown in Chile, packaged in China and sold in USA.
@@freedomfighter22222 Your statement takes it to a whole new level with pears being, well perishable. But I can totally see how shipping pales in comparison to labor costs…
@@MyMostBeautifuCinema yeah I don't remember what channel it was from, but it's an example I heard of some years ago and it is actually a thing, might have been processed in some way, I just remember the video I saw showed packages of pears in US shops labeled "for sale in USA, grown in Chile and packaged in Vietnam(or somewhere indochina)"
It was from a youtube video about global trade, it's just the stupidest example I know off.
"You either take the blue pill and stay in wonderland. Or you take the red pill. And you'll sea how far the fishing hole goes". --Morfishious.
And you will see.... unless you meant that to be a pun!
Isn't having something moored in one place just adding fish poop in one place? Tons and
tons of it? And where does the feed come from and what happens to the onboard fish
waste? Very light on meaningful data.
The Norwegian sea has an average depth of 1600 meters, the point about these constructions is to move the farms out onto those kinds of depths where sea currents will scatter the waste of the fish into an area so large that it has no more concentration of fish poop than any other parts of the ocean.
It is a problem for fish farms in still shallow waters and exactly what this thing aims to tackle.
A dairy farmer once told me 'I'm a grass farmer', no grass = no milk, so by the same logic an aquaculture farmer is still a fisherman, no fish as feed = no fish. Aquaculture has just outsourced the feed fishing for image and profit. Intensive corporate farming for profit is the problem not the solution.
No fish no feed not true. We want to avoid the ocean due to the 300 tons spilled into the ocean each day and nuclear waste has a long shelf life. This is why there is Black soldier fly farmers and worm farmers We can get fish from Aquaponics and is over all healthier. So when we look at Ocean farm 1 it only employees 7 people where as Aquaponics combined with hydroponics farms hire Thousands. Even if we automated our Land farms would still need plenty of hands. this is the problem we face with Government owned Businesses as it creates a problem that causes Economic abuse. How money is used to cause damage to the population of citizens. Already not enough job's for the population even in USA it's a world wide issue. One thing in this video I noticed was I didn't see them having any Duckweed farms or feeding the fish duck weed so they don't have a healthy balance. We wouldn't want to eat fish from Ohio river as even small traces of mercury has health effects and nuclear waste is no different despite their claims to stop people from panicking. We also face issues with soil depletion , Indians always knew how to cultivate Terra Petra we never had to teach them to even plant corn they already knew despite the history books painting a different picture. We know we can grow Grass through hydroponics. The laws are opening up for Aquaculture to be organic. Before it was like a war. Control is really what it's about. Milk and other dairy products are the top source of saturated fat in the American diet, contributing to heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and Alzheimer's disease. Studies have also linked dairy to an increased risk of breast, ovarian, and prostate cancers. Researchers tested popular fast food items like hamburgers, pizza and burritos for traces of phthalates.
High levels of phthalates have been linked to fertility issues, asthma and cognitive development problems in children.
well said!
Correct. truly sustainable fish farms will have to basically "farm an eco system" in the ocean and not just the fish. In nature, each eco system looks after everything in it. Not just one specie in that system.
Care about your health and eat wild sockeye from Alaska. Unlike this garbage it’s good for you
Do you want to see fish stocks depleted further? There aren't enough wild salmon to sustainably feed humanity in the future.
I can't eat farmed saumon - it's just terrible.

You should cover food waste in one of your videos. Increasing food supply to combat food needs is great and all, but food waste is also a real issue.
Food waste is just food for another part of the ecosystem.
If everybody grew one plant there'd be no problem. Man look at all the grass everywhere. Switch to small gardens
The reality is that there is a lot food out there but a lot of is actually not essential. If we can just stop eating and producing no essential foods (mostly junk), we will have a lot more space and resources to grow only what we need.
Which is supply chain, trucking, and distribution in an organized manner. And food production? How about food price rises in the last four years in North America? I could see it coming long before inflation, Covid, or weather issues. It's been coming for four years.
It's less an issue of food production and more of food waste, imo.
Backyard chickens. Turns food scraps into fresh eggs with zero food miles. Should be encouraged but many councils discourage it. My opinion from Australia
Guerilla farming, microfarming, food forests, permaculture. Enough solutions were you don't need machines and technology. But people keep fookin and eating crap.
It’s communism here, no IMO
@@haysoe8706 curious of why this is viewed by you as communism?
The amount of waste is unimaginable
My neighbor was formally head of the dept of fisheries, he told me wild fish populations are not in decline. When WWF and other entities say it is, it’s just propaganda for a variety of reasons, just depends who they represent at the time.
I was about to write this as well. Their bullshit about fish populations in decline is BULLSHIT! A family member of mine has first hand knowledge of the populations of fish around the world. After speaking with him, I found out that there is an actual INCREASE in several species. The rest remain on great levels!
@@metal3974 Yup, make no mistake, these farms are for three things only: easier, faster, cheaper. The amount of money saved on boats, crew and insurance is astronomical. But nobody wants to say that so they wrap an environmental cause around it and everyone supports it. Farm raised fish just isn’t as high a quality as wild caught. And farm raised fish isn’t good for our oceans long term.
the irony....the cage was built by a chinese company. And yet the chinese are known for sending vast fleets of fishing vessels who overfish in many locations all around the world.
The ccp sucks in so many ways.
They are also really good at keeping people behind cages all in the name of “education”!
Then there are the shit ships. Sewage and waste is pumped into a tanker and it heads off and dumps the material at sea.
The Chinese are known for responsible fishing. Most of seafood the Chinese consume come from seafood farms. They do not overfish, like you claimed.
@@peter238 Chinese and responsible in the same sentence gave me one hell of a great laugh. Thanks.
All sounds good until you go diving under it. Salmon feed is laced with growth hormones.
in 2012 the world was making enough food to feed around 30 billion people & that was 10 years ago . My main point is that its not that we don't make enough food its the fact that its overpriced in such a way that turns people off from buying it then its waste. I worked in produce for 5 years if you seen the amount of waste it would make you cry . at the end of the day its all about greed rather then selling the strawberries for a 40-50% mark up just do like a 10% mark up you sell all ur product & people have food . it happens more then you think in 2022 waste waste waste .
And the good thing, for the owners, with such farm in the open see is that if they pollute the environment, nobody will be there to witness it and complain about it. And by the time we realize that it is the case it will be very hard to pinpoint which fish farm is the source of the pollution.
pollute with what?
@@lazarduke6596 lol. Food I guess
@@lazarduke6596 Good question. I don't know much about fish farming, but unnatural population densities as in those enclosures may have multiple impacts. I'd want to know the effects of the following over time; hypertrophic contamination from artificial food stuffs, contaminant residuals from artificial food stuffs (hormones, residual pesticides etc.), escapees and genetic dilution/pollution of natural populations, pathogenic densities resultant of dense populations and attendant stressors, etc. etc. etc.
@@lazarduke6596 if you search fish farm pollution you will get: nitrate, pesticide, antibiotic and more.
@@lazarduke6596 It's own presence, for one. Pollution should be the least concern. The fact is that China has found another environmentally damaging method for making money and it's a win-win for the already huge overfishing economy in Norway.
Only problem is all the fish shit drops to the ocean floor out come is Dead Sea floor
Fish poop already deposits on the sea floor and creates a whole ecosystem on the sea floor. The farm could be moved a few meters a day to deposit the fish waste more evenly over the ocean.
Awesome because the only thing that pollutes the oceans more than commercial fishing is fish farming
Sorry dumb question but how does it pollute more?
@@griffincypert2900 Farmed fish are fed fish meal, which is ground up fish that are caught from the seas and oceans. Farmed fish don't actually help the marine ecosystems, read up on the use of fish meal to feed farmed fish. Most people think fish farming helps the wild population of fish but actually it is highly destructive. Large trawlers use drag nets to scrape the sea floor and catch everything, destroying the marine ecosystem in the process. Chinese and other asian companies use these methods.
@@mohit13reddy oh ok thanks
Mass feeding and fish pooping in a concentrated area and large numbers of the fish die because of it and other environmental effects which further add to the pollution

Unfortunately farmed Norwegian salmon is one of the most "poisonous" fish out there..
toxic environment raising toxic food for our toxic society...
It all seems pretty cool and sustainable but that's just a trap. What do these fish eat? They eat fish meal based products 99% of the time. So we're still harvesting excessive amounts of fish, for each salmon that is being fed, they have to fish 1000 anchovies. The number is random and so is the species of fish, but you get the idea. Until we have algae farms that are able to produce industrial amounts of algae that can be used to make fish food, this will never be truly sustainable.
Finally, a sane comment. It is pathetic how society seems to embrace ever increasingly technological solutions to keep up our standards of living. Heaven forbid we have to change our behavior. We still want salmon! Even though 10 pounds of fish or other animal products go into every pound of salmon raised. It's like growing tigers for food!
@@latetotheparty184 Definitely. My opinion is that we should invest heavily on algae farms, we can even do that in land facilities and farming algae can be very sustainable. Once we have a reliable way to mass produce it, we can make fish food that is actually sustainable and THEN we can start thinking about this type of things
Exactly, fish eat other fish which mean these farms are not helping the world's oceans at all.
I don’t know about you, but this video made me hungry for fish dinner. 🤣
The hunger problems in the world is not caused by the lack of food or resources, the biggest cause is greed and love of self
I would add that we (especially here in the US) waste or throw away more food than we consume. Furthermore, most retailers prohibit donating nearly expired food to the poor and homeless. Instead, it just goes in a dumpster.
Matthew Martin
Retailers prohibit throwing away old food because there is a threat of food poisoning. They also follow these reasonable safety guidelines in the Country of Taiwan.
@@LGguedo that's just not true. I have worked at grocery stores, and we were constantly throwing out close to expired food everyday. That's common practice. Plus the countless videos you can look up on TH-cam about this.
Matthew Martin
I am aware of the waste having worked in foodservice, and it’s not cool. I ate several returned hamburgers and oldish sticky buns in my day.
However It does not appear that this is the result of some evil capitalist practice due to concerns about loss of business, general laziness or cost. I feel the waste is more borne from averting potential litigation, which these large food suppliers are a large target of for the opportunistic attorney. Reduce or get rid of liability of giving away close to expired food and I think many would do it, if for nothing else than using it as a feel good ad campaign to help the bottom line.
I understand greed but love of self? Can you explain what you mean?
I cant imagine this kind of advanced ultra modern technology being implemented in kerala .First officials and politicians wd take a commission from the makers of the machinery ,so the equipment wd be faulty when delivered and installed.second the politician wd instigate the local fisherman against the facility in the name of job loss and wd damage the the whole thing...
This has been implemented by Norwegian Private company not the government. Let us assume if any company try to implement it in Kerala . There will be massive protests by local fisherman supported by political elements . They will end up burning state owned buses and property . And then local politics will throw the company out to secure votes. There are both sides of the coin … I think the democracy works in its own ways
Malayali ano
I was talking to some unemployed lefty zoologist who was adamant, this kind of solution was not viable, her "solution" was people should eat less fish, what a great idea..
I would like to build similar construction but as a ocean skimmer: to collect plastic and with an onboard recycling system and rugged 3d printer, make a bunch of little skimmers to help rid our waterways of plastic
Upvoted. If China, or any world government, cared about the environment, we would see more solutions such as yours and those being put into practice. Keep your head up, you've got a good one.
People who say it's impossible just aren't thinking big. If someone figures out that it can be profitable it'll be under construction yesterday.
Where is the fish farm getting power from? What is the farm feeding the fish? Where does the fish feces go? Answers: The farm would be run on diesel generators with would have to be pumped via a tanker regularly. The formulated fish feed would have to be brought in fresh to feed the fish and is composed of fish meal which is sourced from wild fish stocks. The fish feces passes directly into the ocean untreated so any diseases that the farmed fish catch are transmitted directly to the environment. The reason for the design of this farm is to easily move periodically to comply with environmental laws to reduce the impact on the environment.
Are the faeces of the fish in the open sea treated before they pass to the open sea. Humanity is going insane.
Those stats are bogus!
Better to watch the video with sound off.
"You are what you eat- literally!" I wonder what they feed these fish, not sure anyone would like the answers or want to eat these things. Nice 100% company promo!

These have a lot of positives. The main problem I’m sure will be what they feed them. You are what you eat. Look at the difference in the fat ratios for wild verses wild caught. Wild caught is healthy for you and farm raised is bad for you.

Earth : 71% water and they want to convince me that we don't have fish
The trolleys are very efficient these days that it carpet clean the bottom where the fish hides.
Who puts tomatoes inside a fish? That’s just insanity.
The same people who think it is ok to feed cows the ground up bones of sheep and other despicable animal fall-offs. News flash: cows are PURE plant eaters! Not only that, they are pure GRASS eaters. Their digestive system cannot handle anything else without harm to the cows. That's why the cows are stuffed with antibiotics, anti-bloating drugs and lots of other drugs. All of this ends up in the milk, or in the meat people eat. Oh yeah, that's so healthy! Does anybody know that cows only lactate when they have given birth to a calf? Cows do not naturally give milk year round. In order to have them do that, it is necessary to give them hormones. Guess where these end up?
Those fish have got to eat, so feed them food laced with GMO's and we'll all be just fine....RIGHT ?

I heard some amazing stats about how everyone in the world could be fed if we were vegetarian. That raising the crops needed to feed the animals we raise for meat is much much more than we ourselves would need to eat.
Plants are bad for people to eat.
vegetarians are worst farms and or vegetable related farms kill more then meat eaters, example farm take up countrysides rainforests as a result theres less insects check ur windowscrean on ur car less wild life plus farmers kill the animals that try to eat them vegetables plus British cant be vegetarians cuz we have winter so no vegetables only meat was available shows how bad education is now
@@Procedurallydegeneratedjohn oh gosh ~ that’s so funny 😃 you really brightened my day ❤️
@@carpenterfamily6198 im not joking. The only things plants produce that should be eaten by humans is fruit. Leafs and roots have toxins. Just because society has been eating veggies because theyre easy to produce and cheap doesn't make it more healthy.
Being vegetarian only addresses one problem -environmental problems relating to meat productions. However there many other problems that is caused by mono culture. Plus if we all ate only plants, there isnt enough space to grow food since plants are low in nutrients for the long term developments of humans.
9.1 billion is only ~15% more than today...

You never really get a scale for the farm till about 6:45 of the video. The thing is utterly massive.
The only thing limiting its size was the width of the dry dock. Crazy
Death Star you might say
Theres a problem, either they feed the fish fish food which takes up alot of cropland and whould make it more unsustainable than regular fishing, or they have to be fed with wild fish, 1kg wild salmon per 3kg wild fish fed, and it whould still require mass fishing
Saw a documentary recently that said Norwegian farmed salmon was the most toxic food on the plant. Really eye opening.
plant or planet?
Definitely the last thing id ever eat.
Farmed salmon feed is made in a factory, to make the fish appealing they add dye to the food. They contain cancer causing chemicals. uneaten food is released into the sea which poisons the local species. They just engineer fish to look feel and taste however they want it to. DONT EAT IT
Seaspiracy, that movie made me quit eating fish on the spot.
I knew fish farms were bad, but the whole sea food industry is way fucked up.

@@svampebob007 not all fishing is like that. Small inshore boats can catch fish like mackerel by hand without anything touching the bottom. Fish and shellfish can be caught by static gear which does no damage to the seabed.
@@michaelfoulis7438 yeah I know there's methods that do not harm the sea fauna/flora, but I have absolutely no trust in any of our industries to actually implement those methods.
I'm Norwegian btw, so I can't imagine any of the fish available being sold here being from a small boat catching mackerel by hand, not for those prices.
The only fish that I do eat now is the one that my father in law catches here every summer, or the one that me and my brothers catch (every other summer cause we suck at fishing :D )

Very interesting! I can imagine that there would naturally be large plumes of seaweed and algae around this farm from all that fish poop too. So algae farming and kelp farming could also happen at the same site. Certainly farming the oceans and other waters in a sustainable matter will be a natural part of our evolution as a species.
It’s in deep ocean, so no
Maybe some type of fecal collector that could be used as fertilizer.

So I am going to try to be objective here. I am not against farming and believe we should multiple streams of food production. The issue I have is with industrial farming. When “bean counters” are involved in their pursuit of maximum profit and efficiency perhaps we may exercise a bit of balance. Preferably air a bit more on the environmental side vs profit. 1) You don’t need to stack the fish in the cages to to the full capacity, 2) move the farms a bit further out to sea and move the farms a bit more around the area each day. I know they aren’t stationary but I am sure you only move it just enough, and 3) Use sustainable feed with less GMOs or high protein diets. Of course the fish will grow slower but hey just a thought. Who knows…maybe even as a break even venture that creates job you guys might have a lot more public support and the tree huggers might even want to help your cause. Try to have a conscience.
Err on the side, not air
Humans do not need meat or fish to live long healthy lives. So why screw the planet?
The use of antibiotics in the fish food is a greater problem than GMO, although that is certainly also problematic.
That sounds like a great idea! You should do it!
You mean spread the vile polution around more?
This idea originated from Bubba , Forest and lieutenant Dan !
China tech is amazing .. space laboratory now sea fishing.. wow
Nope. Fish farms existed and in operation in Asia well before Forest Gump movie. They are called "Kelong".
Gotta say the farm fished salmon from Chile that you buy in Publix is stupid fresh and top quality. The logistics network to get that stuff halfway across the globe at a reasonable price just blows me away. I've figured out how to marinate it and grill it on a cedar plank in my weber grill, tastes WAY better than any salmon I've had in a fine dining establishment.
Nice
Anything you buy in a grocery store is definitely not fresh. Especially if it has to travel thousands of miles and sit for however long before you even buy it. Even apples in grocery stores are usually a year old already.
Maybe use the combined fish power to move the thing around.
Would be nice if they factored in a percentage of fish for release. Cheers
Farmed fish, especially salmon according to a documentary about salmon farming in the usa pacific coast, are a source of all kind of diseases affecting wild populations

Did you not hear the concern of fish escaping and causing genetic mutations in the wild fish.
@@fredvanleeuwen9996 salmon farms are destroying the wild salmon and sea trout on the west coast rivers of Scotland.
@@grancito2 No sorry missed that bit, but they need someway of restocking the oceans that's safe. Cheers
Can someone explain how introducing "21,500 cleaner fish into the water" would "eliminate the sea lice problem" in the farm?
I believe the cleaner fish would eat up all of the parasitic sea lice as a way of solving the problem
Additionally, what happens to all those fish when they've done their job?
They would be harvested out along with the farmed fish. Maybe sold for bait or cat food
It is "cleaner" not as in free of lice but as in a fish that has the job of cleaning, it's not salmon but other types of bottom feeder fish that eat small insects like lice.
The "cleaner fish" is basically a janitor going around picking lice of the salmon.
cleaner fishes are used in fish tanks and this is a big fish tank in the ocean.
34% growth in demand that needs a 70% increase in production ??? you lost me
Genetically modified fish maybe the FUTURE , whale size tasty Halibut coming to feed the community?
No need to genetically modify fish, just pump more and more oxygen in the water and some species will grow 2 to 3 times bigger.
What are the fish fed and where does it come from?
BBC/CNN: In China, they harvest human flesh and organs in Xinjiang to feed the fish.
@@kevinefms link please?
@@kevinefms Official source please.
Did my US math education fail me? A 34% increase in consumers needs a 70% increase in food or else we all starve?
He said “they have a 98 percent survival rate” hahaha I don’t think so.
All that gmo shit feed they feed those fish!
You'll be a GMO person, you superstitious
GM therapies are just around the corner and you'll need one soon or later
Even today at 8 billion nobody truly knows how we will feed everybody in a sustainable fashion and without further losses in biodiversity. In fact there are very good reasons to believe that we are already too many: in past decades with our hunting, overharvesting, introducing invasive species to the wild, polluting, and changing wetlands and forests to croplands and urban areas, it is factually documented that we caused countless other species to become extinct.
How about we slowly begin to move away from social welfare et economic schemes that are depending on population growth - and are thus anyway doomed in the long term - and instead limit our reproduction to achieve a truly sustainable global population which can strive in harmony with other species. Thanks to medical science, mankind is the only species on earth that can actually limit its size painlessly.
Seeing all this just confirms there are simply too many of us….
Basically for the Rich to become Richer. I don't see any small scale fish farmers standing any chance.
Cool
imagine how the wild fish on the outside are making fun of and teasing the fish on the inside every day
Why not also have a solid (or semi-solid) bottom to recover fish feces to sell as fertilizer?

Fish farms are stupid, you have to give food and antibiotics to the fish, the solution is to expand the coastal ecosystem to grow more fish.
You have to give food and antibiotics to anything that you're growing for food.
Farm animals (cows, pigs, chickens, etc) all need fed and medicated. Crops need pesticides, water, feed, and control if there are any diseases amongst them. The problem with using coastal fish would be preventing the rest of nature from eating what you are trying to grow for your own, it would be damaging to the actual ecosystem to interfer in any way, and it would be an unreliable source that could sky-rocket prices due to demand, and cause the lower-income families to attempt to get their own in either a less safe way, or in a less sustainable way, that could crush other ecosystems.
We know which country that's clearing out the ocean fishes globally & within maritime boundaries of other nations illegally with thier fishing fleet...
I think that is the same country which dumps a tremendous amount of plastic pollution into the ocean and has shit ships. They pump waste into tankers, sail into the ocean near Japan, Taiwan and other nearby places and discharge the tanks. I guess they are feeding the fish.
also why would production have to increase by 70% to help 15% more people by 2050?
This is like they just choose random numbers without doing any research at all
fyi, 15% more people means 15% more food production.
The answer may not be so simple. There may well be factors which detract from a one to one farm-to-mouth transmission. Maybe such as; supply chain efficiency, inventory spoilage, geographical and political complexities, distribution challenges, and I'm sure many things I have no idea about.
@@bradsillasen1972 earlier in the video they said that 9.1 billion people would be a 34% increase in population, when it's only like 15%
They can't do math right, so I really doubt they can do economics right.
@@Sl4yerkid Good point well taken. I remember that population comment and it did catch my attention but I didn't check the numbers. Seemed like it was basically a big ad for fish farming.
Anyone else think this Yang Zhi Gang fella looks a lot like Jackie Chan? 2:38
Well since they’re not doing that it looks like they’re going to lower the population instead of making more food
Yes, the World Wildlife Foundation, was mentioned, the organisation has been involved in population reduction for over 100 years, evil organisation.
They don't advocate mass slaughters, do they?
So what's evil about advocating population reduction?
@@alain6983 Have you not heard of covid and the poison injections, those are mass slaughter, get a brain.
@@grancito2 Learn some manners. This would be useful for a polite debate.
Where does the fish feed for these gigantic installations come from?
Soy or wheat pellets
The most farmed fish are the vegetarian species. Carp, tilapia, and milk fish.
usually from cheap shreddered fish
By raping, sieving and scraping the World's littoral zones, for cheap food at enormous ecological and social damage to sustainable traditional fishing operations. This should be closed down and all fish farming be conducted in closed contained fish production units on land, the feed being the larvae of the Black Soldier Fly. This offshore operation is nothing short of criminal.
Brazil could be a possible sources for aquaculture feed and it would be in the form of pellets.
They have a big aqua farming culture.
Probably 3rd or 4th after China and Indonesia for tilapia fish farming. I believe shrimp farming is also very big in the northeast part of Brazil.
Other sources of fish feed could be Ireland and then Netherlands.
There is no way this new 'blue revolution' won't backfire on us. Just like the 'Green revolution' 😂😂
6:58 Left side of screen are silver carp. Most people in the US consider these to be trash fish. Silver carp are my preferred fish. I grill, smoke, bake, fry, and pressure can them. This morning I ate the collar from a silver carp that I slow cooked over maple wood. Delicious.
they are actually trash fish and bad for the environment in every way.
@@JL-yt5hy Define "trash fish".
Every resources are dependent on health of our planet. Over consumption and wastage disturbs and causes disbalance. To avoid this some limitations are needed.

What do they feed the fish? Are they antibiotic free?
Pellets made from sardines, at least in the case of salmon farming.
