Abstract

Aquaculture plays a vital role in meeting the global demand for seafood, but its sustainability is threatened by the emergence of diseases that can devastate aquatic populations and compromise food security. In response, effective disease management strategies have become imperative to safeguard aquatic health and ensure the resilience of aquaculture systems. This abstract explores the importance of disease management in protecting aquatic health, emphasizing preventive measures, early detection strategies, integrated pest management (IPM), environmental stewardship, and collaborative partnerships. By prioritizing disease management, aquaculture industries can mitigate risks, promote sustainability, and secure the future of aquatic food production systems.
