The Minister of Fisheries and Aquaculture, Emelia Arthur, has set a target for major transformation in aquaculture.

This involves her ministry's advanced plans to expand fish farming as a year-round alternative to traditional fishing, as part of efforts to ensuring stable incomes for coastal communities and beyond.

According to the minister, this is a 'game-changer' to boost employment and food sustainability.

This came to light during a working visit to the Central Region, where the minister inspected R&B Farms, a Ghanaian-owned aquaculture venture spanning 32 hectares at Gomoa Nsuem.
