International Aquafeed magazine, and our online news service, the Aquaculturists - have teamed up to bring you a weekly update from the world of aquaculture
The Aquaculturists news service The Aquaculturists blog is part of International Aquafeed magazine. While the bi-monthly magazine covers aquafeed issues in-depth, the Aquaculturists takes a lighter approach.
