 The Global Aquaculture Alliance is an international, nonprofit trade association dedicated to advancing environmentally and socially responsible aquaculture. GAA recognizes that aquaculture -- the culture and farming of shrimp, fish, shellfish and other aquatic organisms -- is the only sustainable means of increasing seafood supply to meet the food needs of the world's growing population. GAA therefore promotes Best Aquaculture Practices standards and facility certification for sustainable aquaculture at the core of its Responsible Aquaculture Program and other activities. | |||
