Best Aquaculture Practices

Best Aquaculture Practices (BAP) are guidelines designed to ensure fish and seafood farms operate responsibly and sustainably. They cover aspects like water quality, fish health, waste management, and safe handling, reducing environmental impact and promoting animal welfare. BAP standards help prevent pollution, disease, and resource overuse, while also ensuring the products are safe for consumers. For producers, following these practices supports ethical, environmentally friendly, and economically viable operations, ultimately providing high-quality, responsibly farmed seafood to consumers.
