Aquatic Food Security explores a range of issues related to this subject using global examples to illustrate both the strengths and weaknesses within the existing aquatic food supply chain. This is already an area of vital importance, and it will increase in importance as the aquaculture industry grows for the foreseeable future.

The book addresses:

  • the role of intensification in global aquaculture production;
  • the importance of nutrition and selective breeding;
  • diseases and public health considerations;
  • the role of markets and of processing;
  • retail sectors; and
  • quality issues in our global seafood.

Margaret Crumlish

Margaret Crumlish has researched aquatic microbial diseases, specifically ones that have economic impact in global aquaculture, and potential solutions to such infectious diseases. Her studies involve the identification and pathogenesis of bacterial infections that cause outbreaks within a wide range of fish and shrimp farming systems.

Rachel Norman

Rachel Norman leads the Stirling University Research Program on Global Food Security which brings together colleagues from across the University who are applying their research to problems in food security. In April 2019, she took on the role of Institutional Dean of Research Engagement and Performance.
