These include the use of closed-loop systems to reduce water consumption, the selection of sustainable feed sources to maximize feed efficiency, and the monitoring of water quality to ensure that there are no harmful effects on surrounding ecosystems. In addition, regular environmental impact assessments are conducted to identify potential risks and take appropriate countermeasures.
