personally i think fish farming is cost effective, from a protein mass/farming cost ratio standpoint. If big fish benefits the same subsidies as big red meat does, fish farming would be more sustainable and a farmer could use a less denser farm to minimize disease risk, also it would enable him to buy more medicine to fight parasites while maintaining a healthy margin
