Fish Welfare

Abstract

Fish welfare is not the only concerns to serve the social confidence for safety and quality or for the marketing requirement for
customers to buy healthful fish products with assurance. But the expansion of the aquaculture business pushes farmers to rear fish in
high density to meet the public demand. For this reason, it is necessary to raise aquatic organisms without stress and in a healthful
environment. This article reviews scientific research about the fish healthfulness and safety. Fish stress and health can be used as
suitable indicators. Fish health management, stocking density, harvesting, transportation, feed and feeding, deprivation, and slaughter
techniques, all relating to fish welfare are discussed. This information will be beneficial for creating a culture standard under present
fish welfare requirements.
