This
edited book presents the emerging
sustainable innovations in all areas of
aquaculture in Africa with a view to
create an opportunity whereby scientific
outputs and recommendations can be
endorsed for improved aquaculture
outputs towards poverty alleviation and
food security on the continent.
Food
insecurity and poverty are some of the
challenges faced on the African
continent. These challenges are further
exacerbated by the growing human
population and the impacts of climate
change. Today, aquaculture has become
one of the fastest food producing
sectors in the world, with the potential
to contribute significantly to food
security and poverty alleviation in
developing countries. In Africa,
aquaculture is at an infant stage,
however, many African countries have
recognized the potential roles of
aquaculture in food security, poverty
alleviation and conservation of aquatic
resources through their commitment to
achieve the United Nation Sustainable
Development Goals.
The book reviews and synthesize research
work from these thematic areas across
Africa and provide a unique perspective on
the emerging aquaculture innovations and
illustrate how aquaculture practices could
be feasible and cost effective while
promoting social and environmental
sustainability. The book also draws from
global discussions on sustainable
aquaculture practices and provides
recommendations on what is feasible for
Africa. This book is a great tool for the
university students, scholars, aquaculture
farmers, investors, and policymakers to
understand the scientific based
sustainable aquaculture innovations from
an African perspective.
This book is focused on SDG 2 and SDG 14.
