| Description: | <P>Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner.</P> <p>This is a mixed method dataset. The study is part of the Rural Economy and Land Use (RELU) programme.<br> <br>The research developed a small scale, warmwater production system for growing the fish, tilapia, as a diversification strategy for UK agricultural and arable farmers. A multidisciplinary approach incorporating Marketing, Public Health, Aquaculture and Entrepreneurial perspectives shaped the research which developed a "green" production system for this fish. The system utilises on-farm resources and simplified technology which can be readily adopted as a sustainable and practical approach for farmers unfamiliar with fish production, while niche market opportunities for tilapia were explored, public health and sustainability implications considered and a better understanding of the challenges that face UK farmers was gained. Research techniques used mixed methods drawn from qualitative, quantitative and case study approaches from all the disciplines involved.<br> <br>Further information for this study may be found through the <a href="https://www.researchcatalogue.esrc.ac.uk/grants/RES-224-25-0066/read" target="_blank">ESRC Research Catalogue webpage: Warmwater Fish Production as a Niche Production and Market Diversification Strategy for Organic Arable Farmers.</a><a href="https://www.researchcatalogue.esrc.ac.uk/grants/RES-224-25-0066/read" target="_blank" style=""></a><br> </p> <B>Main Topics</B>:<BR> Warm water fish production, tilapia, diversification strategy, consumer attitude, public health, food safety, sustainability.<br> |
