What Do the BAP Best Aquaculture Practices Standards Cover?
BAP best aquaculture practices standards cover environmental, animal-welfare, and facility-level expectations for responsible aquaculture. BAP certification sets out the core principles of responsible cultured fisheries and provides quantitative methods for verifying conformity with those practices.
On scope, the BAP programme has developed standards for hatcheries, feed mills, farm processing plants, and more. It now applies to nearly the full set of production systems, including crustaceans and shellfish. New standards have brought species such as sea bream, sea bass, and trout, which have particularly high production volumes, into scope.
