Abstract

Wild southern bluefin tuna caught in the Great Australian Bight off Australia’s southern coast are ranched to add quality and value to products sold both domestically and internationally. Since its beginning in 1990, the Australian southern bluefin tuna ranching industry has grown steadily, and is a valuable sector of Australia’s aquaculture industry. To become the economic success that it is today, the southern bluefin tuna ranching industry has overcome a number of challenges. To remain economically and ecologically viable, however, the industry must continue to build understanding of tuna stocks and biology while focusing on innovative husbandry methods including widespread replacement of baitfish feed with manufactured diets.
