Fish farming, also known as aquaculture, is the practice of raising fish in controlled environments for food production or conservation purposes. Research published in the International Journal of Aquaculture Research and Development addresses multiple dimensions of this practice across diverse geographic and ecological contexts. Studies examine the nutritional requirements and growth performance of specific species, including investigations into dietary protein levels for African cyprinids and the replacement of fishmeal with alternative protein sources such as lima bean meal in African catfish diets. The journal has published work on reproductive parameters of tilapia populations in Cameroon's Sudano-Guinean altitude zone and explored the integration of caviar production with traditional fish farming systems in West Africa. Research also documents practical challenges facing the aquaculture sector, including obstacles to fish culture development in urban Sudanese settings. Additionally, the journal covers broader topics relevant to aquatic food production, such as factors affecting wild salmon populations and biotechnological applications of cyanobacteria in agriculture and environmental management. This body of work reflects the multifaceted nature of fish farming research, encompassing species-specific husbandry, nutrition optimization, regional development constraints, and the intersection of aquaculture with natural resource management.
