The minimum unit of the environment containing the essential processes of smolt production is identified as a riffle–pool sequence at a meander. Optimization for smolt rearing is seen to lie through control of discharge, temperature, food production, and cover. The pathways of food production are traced. Ways of increasing the stock of fish-food organisms include adjustment of the ratio of riffle to pool area, choice of streamside vegetation, control of light to the stream, and inorganic and organic enrichment. Ways of making food available to fry include collecting drifting invertebrates at night and releasing them in the day, dislodgement of benthos, attracting aerial insects by lights, and supplementary feeding with artificial foods. None of these procedures, when applied to a natural stream, seems economically feasible. When applied, however, to channels made alongside streams and stocked by the parent stream, they should combine some desirable features of rivers with the productive capacity, but not the costs, of hatcheries.

European Farming

Global food security is dependent on ecologically viable production systems, but current agricultural practices are often at odds with environmental sustainability. Resolving this disparity is a huge task, but there is much that can be learned from traditional food production systems that persisted for thousands of years. Ecoagriculture for a Sustainable Food Future describes the ecological history of food production systems in Australia, showing how Aboriginal food systems collapsed when European farming methods were imposed on bushlands. The industrialised agricultural systems that are now prevalent across the world require constant input of finite resources, and continue to cause destructive environmental change. This book explores the damage that has arisen from farming systems unsuited to their environment, and presents compelling evidence that producing food is an ecological process that needs to be rethought in order to ensure resilient food production into the future. Cultural sensitivity Readers are warned that there may be words, descriptions and terms used in this book that are culturally sensitive, and which might not normally be used in certain public or community contexts. While this information may not reflect current understanding, it is provided by the author in a historical context.
