Disease Risk From Open Ocean Aquaculture

"When net pens are located near the migration routes of wild fish populations, there is the potential for on-farm diseases to be transmitted to passing wild fish. Pesticides and antibiotics used to control diseases and parasites can also be discharged into the environment, impacting local species." - Excerpt from Monterey Bay Aquarium Seafood Watch
