and so complete the whole
life cycle
Then they won't have to take
any more blue from our oceans
Japan in the largest
consuming nation in the world
And we're also very concerned
about the diminishing stocks
of blue in the wild
Aqua-culture has its own set
of well known problems,
the most worrying are pollution,
as well as the mixing of bred,
with wild stocks
But there'd another issue
These are fed a
amount of fish every day
They're being fed valuable protein
that should be food for the
poorer people of Asia
So now the Japanese are trying
to develop a
Either from vegetable matter
or from animal products
and we hope further
development will enable us
to use more and more artificial
feed in the future
But the haven't succeeded yet
and they still take huge quantities
of low value fish to feed
one big fish
other parts of Asia
Which are poorer than Japan and where
fish stocks are already heavily ,
they're also turning
to culture
And are the
biggest money
More than half a million tons
of are produced a year
Nearly all of which are exported
lt's big business and
employs a lot of people
But just like ,
the are
And they need to eat fish, fish that
has been ground into
And when they are farmed as
as this they need a lot of feed
you have , three square
meters of pond for one ,
it's expensive, you don't have
to feed anything,
nature will feed the ,
but if you have thirty of them
in one square metre then you have
to provide some kind of food,
now l think the latest figures
are about two,
two of, of fish to produce
one of, of
Here substitute feeds may help
but they could come too late
the meantime, low value
fish are fed to
which are then exported
to the west
These fish should be
feeding local people
lt's the little fish that's there
that's being bought by people,
the families their food
and low income families
and middle income families,
that will not be available
to these families
But there'd another issue,
thousands of
have been built in coastal
areas destroying
a valuable ,
Mile upon mile of
have been cut down
The has been stripped
of it's natural protection
And there are many important
ecological reasons
why should be protected
To many people are
just a mass of roots
where the bottom is
and and ,
and the air is full of ,
but get under water
and it's a very different world
The route system provides
a natural nursery for young fish,
they spend their later life out
on or in the open sea
The roots provide protection
from predators
which is vital for small vulnerable fish
the shelter of fish
can feed and grow in relative safety
Again, it's the habitat
that's under threat
We're destroying it,
Without a thought for the
animals that depend on it
Perhaps the right answer might be
to set aside some areas of the sea,
so that the animals that live there
whatever they are have a chance
As soon as we recognise that
land animals need protecting
we usually do something about it
The huge game reserves in Africa
are a classic example,
but for some reason we treat
our seas very differently
This is the island of Skoma
a very beautiful reserve
that offers excellent protection for
all the birds and plants that live here
