agree  neilmac: Best option IMO :-) Broader field than just fish farming/fisheries.
2 hrs
disagree  Muriel Vasconcellos: Marine biology covers a lot more than fish farming. Biology is not biotechnology - in this case, biology is the science of living marine organisms, while biotechnology is about using tools and implements in the service of raising living organisms.
2 hrs
disagree  marideoba: Not only what Muriel explains. Acuícola also includes fresh water organisms.

  -> Veo que no leíste mi explicación --otras especies-- no creo que amerite un tratado pero si es de algo específico debería decirlo. Yo en mi carrera llevé ciencias marítimas y hay que ver primero como más importante lo que deja $$$. Tú puedes colaborar.

http://www.ecomii.com/science/encyclopedia/aquaculture
http://encyclopedia2.thefreedictionary.com/aquaculture
aquaculture, the raising and harvesting of fresh- and saltwater plants and animals. The most economically important form of aquaculture is fish farming, an industry that accounts for an ever increasing share of world fisheries production. Formerly a business for small farms, it is now also pursued by large agribusinesses, and by the early 2000s it had become almost as significant a source of fish as the as wild fisheries.

agree  Muriel Vasconcellos: 40,400 hits for "aquaculture technology." It's very specific. Not all-encompassing. My cousin has been working in aquaculture technology for more than 30 years.
2 hrs
  -> Muchas gracias Muriel. I phrased it badly! I feel that the term includes much more than marine/fisheries, hence my proposal. Saludos y un abrazo.
disagree  marideoba: La Biotecnología no es una simple Tecnología.
5 hrs
  -> With all due respect, I did not say that it was simply technology. The term I used includes more than mere fish (other proposals) & I did say plants and animals. It is the asker's choice.
