The Aquaculture Podcast Show - Layered Defenses for Salmon Health | Ep. 86

In this episode of The Aquaculture Podcast Show, we explore how Chilean salmon farming can reduce antimicrobial dependence while improving fish health and production efficiency. From functional diets and gut microbiota modulation to alpaca-derived nanobodies, emerging strategies are reshaping bacterial disease prevention. We also examine environmental monitoring, biosecurity, and the future of precision immunotherapy. Listen now on all major platforms!

Inspired by the 2025 article titled "Insights and Lessons from Chilean Salmon Aquaculture on Antimicrobial Use" by Daniela R. Farias, Rolando Ibarra, Felipe Tucca, Alexander Jaramillo-Torres, Javiera Cornejo, Pablo Ibieta, Fernando O. Mardones, and Ruben Avendaño-Herrera
