Abstract: This review examined the characteristics of the main aquaculture industries in NSW with respect to current impediments to growth, market development and future opportunities. Within this context, it examined the nature, funding and impacts of the NSW Department of Primary Industries’ current and proposed investments in aquaculture R&D and industry development, as well as its alignment with DPI and industry priorities.

  • Aquaculture in Western Australia
    Fact Sheet: Aquaculture in Western Australia Region North Coast, Gascoyne Coast, West Coast, South Coast Summary Despite Western Australia’s long coastline, our aquaculture industry is small by global standards – but it is growing and diversifying, with exciting opportunities on the horizon. Aside from contributing to food security, aquaculture creates employment and business opportunities in areas such as feed and equipment manufacturing. It also has direct and indirect economic benefits to the state, particularly in regional areas. In 2017-18, the total value of WA’s commercial fisheries and aquaculture production was $633 million. Of this, pearling (which is mostly commercially farmed) contributed $52 million (8%) and aquaculture $27 million (4%). Location of main aquaculture species farmed in Western Australia. Generated on 28/09/2021 https://marinewaters.fish.wa.gov.au/resource/fact-sheet-aquaculture-in-western-australia/ Page 1 of 8 Production for the Western Australian aquaculture industry in 2016/17 Current production – main aquaculture species in WA Barramundi Lates cacarifer Popular native table fish with high market demand which is sold as whole fish, live fish and fillets. WA’s barramundi production is largely located in the Kimberley region, at Cone Bay. Barramundi can be farmed in indoor recirculating systems, land-based ponds and sea cages. For more detailed information about barramundi aquaculture in Australia, see: https://www.agrifutures.com.au/farm-diversity/barramundi-aquaculture/ Barramundi farm in Cone Bay Rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss Good eating fish that is popular with freshwater anglers. Trout was introduced to Australia for recreational fishing and aquaculture. It is difficult for the species to spawn naturally in WA’s conditions, so they are artificially bred in earthen and concrete ponds at the Pemberton Freshwater Research Centre.

Juveniles have faint black Vincent). WA and SA host separate breeding stocks. blotches on the body and may be confused with juvenile western trumpeter whiting. Stock structure and movement In WA, populations within the Gascoyne Coast Growth Bioregion and West Coast Bioregion are believed Can reach a maximum of 427 mm total length (TL) to have limited connectivity and so are regarded as and 12 years of age. Females and males attain separate stocks. sexual maturity at 2 years, at 200 and 190 mm TL, respectively. Females grow slightly larger than males. In the West Coast Bioregion, some fish live in estuaries for much the year, but these fish migrate Reproduction to sea to join their ocean-dwelling counterparts to Spawning typically occurs at water temperatures spawn in late spring/early summer. Hence, fish of 22-24 ºC. Spawning occurs August-December across the West Coast Bioregion belong to the same in northern areas (e.g. Shark Bay) and December- breeding stock (e.g. fish caught in the Peel-Harvey February in southern areas (e.g. Perth).

Tagging studies have shown movement of adult fish between estuaries, but information on biological stock boundaries remains incomplete. The unknown nature of biological stock composition means no formal assessment of the entire biological stock has been completed. Separate assessments of Sand Whiting have been conducted in Queensland and New South Wales [Gray et al. 2000, Hoyle et al. 2000, Ochwada- Doyle et al. 2014, O’Neill 2000]. Here, assessment of stock status is presented at the jurisdictional level—Queensland and New South Wales. STOCK STATUS New South In New South Wales, Sand Whiting are mainly taken by the commercial Estuary Wales General Fishery (by the mesh netting and hauling sectors), with smaller catches reported by the Ocean Hauling Fishery [Hall 2015]. Annual commercial catches of Sand Whiting in NSW waters over the last five years have been well below the preceding 20 year average of 162 t [NSW DPI unpublished].

  • Fishing and fisheries of Moreton
    https://moretonbayfoundation.org/ 1 Moreton Bay Quandamooka & Catchment: Past, present, and future Chapter 7 Industry Protected: Fishing and fisheries of Moreton Bay Abstract Moreton Bay is one of the most intensely used coastal systems in Australia and supports some of Queensland’s most productive fisheries, including Indigenous, commercial, recreational and charter sectors. This paper explores the economic and cultural value of these fisheries to the Moreton Bay region and the challenges they face. Fishing is recognised as one of Queensland’s oldest industries. Marine resources were harvested by Indigenous peoples long before European settlement and continue to form an important part of Indigenous culture today. Commercial fisheries operating within Moreton Bay are valued at $24m per annum, and target a variety of species groups including prawns, crabs, squid and finfish such as mullet, bream and whiting. Direct expenditure by the recreational sector in Moreton Bay is estimated to be ~$194m per annum, with fishers harvesting mud crabs, sand whiting, snapper, tailor and bream, among others. Despite the longevity of these sectors, a number of challenges exist. These include managing risks related to climate change, a growing urban population, and the need to mitigate environmental impacts from fishing and other marine activities. Interactions with other management sectors, including marine park planning and native title rights, will also need to evolve if we are to ensure a sustainable future for the fisheries of Moreton Bay. Keywords: charter fishing, indigenous fishing, industry, prawn, recreational fishing, trawl Introduction Moreton Bay is one of the most intensively fished regions in Queensland. Although it comprises just 3% of the Queensland coastline, it produces about 12% of Queensland’s fish catch ([i]) and supports some of the state’s most productive commercial and recreational fisheries ([ii]).

  • Aquaculture in Australia
    AQUACULTURE IN AUSTRALIA Aquaculture is the fastest growing primary industry in Australia; in fact it is the fastest growing food production sector in the world. With limited room for expansion in wild catch fisheries together with an ever-increasing world population, there is a heavy reliance on aquaculture as the means for fish production to meet world demand. The Australian aquaculture industry in 2007-2008 was valued at $868 million, and accounted for approximately a third of the total gross value production of the seafood industry. Most of the aquaculture species in Australia are high value species aiming for export markets. Australian aquaculture producers comply with a range of federal, state and local government environmental laws and codes of practice that ensure the long-term sustainability of the industry and the environment. According to FAO (2011) the total Australian aquaculture production has evolved: 1986: 9,083 t - when production was mostly Oysters, and Atlantic Salmon farming was embryonic (10 t); 1999: 29,303 t; 2009: 64,535 t - by which time Atlantic Salmon production had reached nearly 30,000 t and the production of farmed Tuna, marine Shrimp and marine fish were significant sectors of Australian aquaculture. Aquaculture Species There are over forty species being commercially produced in Australian aquaculture, most of the production comes from high value species. The top five species are Tuna; Pearl Oysters; Atlantic Salmon; Edible Oysters and Prawns. The aquaculture industry is largely based in regional Australia and makes a significant and positive contribution to regional development. State industry profiles (see separate sheet on Victoria): South Australia South Australia is a State of opportunity, and few sectors demonstrate this more clearly than the aquaculture industry hence World Aquaculture 2014 will take place in Adelaide 7-11 June 2014.
