How to develop smart sustainable production for fish disease diagnosis identification?

Developing a smart, sustainable system for diagnosing and identifying fish diseases presents a significant challenge, yet it is essential for the health and viability of the aquaculture and fisheries sector. The complexity of this challenge lies in integrating advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, and the Internet of Things (IoT) to create a system that is not only accurate in disease detection but also timely and proactive. Such a system needs to be efficient in processing data and diagnosing a wide array of fish diseases, which requires sophisticated algorithms and extensive data on fish health and pathology. Moreover, the system must be user-friendly, enabling fish farmers and aquaculture technicians—who may not have specialized training in technology or fish diseases—to operate it effectively. This involves designing an interface that is intuitive and provides clear, actionable insights for disease management. Another critical aspect is the environmental sustainability and cost-effectiveness of the system. It should be developed with eco-friendly practices in mind, avoiding any adverse impacts on aquatic ecosystems, and be affordable for widespread adoption, especially in regions where resources are limited. Successfully achieving this integration of technology and usability will not only ensure the health and productivity of fish populations but also significantly contribute to the economic viability of the aquaculture industry. A reliable, accessible disease diagnosis system can prevent large-scale disease outbreaks, reduce losses, and maintain the quality of fish products. This, in turn, supports the sustainability of fisheries and aquaculture as crucial sectors in the global food industry, aligning with both economic goals and environmental conservation efforts.
