Production above maximum levels, however, could result in poorer water quality within the farming zones and impact farm productivity.
The study concluded that with the implementation of certain management measures, the aquaculture zones could see increased production levels. The study, which is expected to be completed by the end of this year, includes assessing the level of fish production that the waters can support without impacting the site conditions, The Straits Times reported earlier this year.Ī similar study commissioned by the Singapore Food Agency (SFA) in 2018 for the Johor Strait had shown that certain sites in the northern waters were nearing maximum production levels.
The bulk of Singapore’s 110 licensed sea-based fish farm sites are in the Johor Strait, with 108 coastal fish farms there.
