This is the case of the estuaries of Andalusia, where the algae mainly affect fish farming, and that of the Rias Baixas de Galicia, where they damage mollusk farming.<\/p>\n<p>To face this challenge, Andalusia and Galicia have launched an initiative that will seek to quantify, identify and characterize the algae that grow in aquaculture areas and that should be removed from the environment. In addition, they will evaluate how this waste is currently managed, and then propose and demonstrate alternative management processes that allow it to take advantage of its potential in the most efficient way.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.fis.com\/fis\/worldnews\/worldnews.asp?monthyear=&amp;day=15&amp;id=95966&amp;l=e&amp;special=&amp;ndb=1%20target=\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The canning industry organization\u00a0Anfaco-Cecopesca\u00a0and the\u00a0Andalusian Aquaculture Technology Centre\u00a0(Ctaqua) will work on a project focused on the management and valorization of macroalgae that grow without control in areas where aquaculture is developed.
