World fish consumption has today reached 150 million tonnes a year, according to the FAO. The fish come from sea fishing but also from intensive fish farming.
At intensive fish farms, a yield of 1 kilo of fish sold requires 4 to 5 kilos of feed in the form of deep-sea fish. At this rate, natural resources are rapidly diminishing: many species have totally disappeared, while others are endangered.
ARTE REPORTAGE visited a new type of fish farm in Andalusia - one that proves fish farming and sustainable development can go hand in hand.
