fish farm
Salmon breeding operation
A fish farm is a facility where fish are raised commercially in controlled environments—tanks, ponds, or offshore enclosures.
Fish farming (aquaculture) produces species like salmon, tilapia, and catfish for food markets: Most Atlantic salmon sold in supermarkets comes from fish farms.
The practice raises concerns about disease, pollution, and escaped fish affecting wild populations.
