A review of fisheries enhancement methods to promote profitability and sustainability in Australian fisheries

This project aims to increase the uptake of fisheries enhancement, the release of fish bred in aquaculture into the ocean to enhance Australian marine fisheries, by consolidating clear comparative data on the costs and benefits of each approach and how they can be most effectively applied in different scenarios. A decision support tool will be developed to enable managers to readily incorporate these approaches with other fishery management considerations.
