In 1999, in Turkey, total fishery production was 636,824 tonnes and total aquaculture production was 63,000 tonnes. The first commercial marine aquaculture ventures were set up in 1985 and the production has already increased from 35 tonnes in 1986 to 25,230 tonnes in 1999. Thus, mariculture, with a great potential for expansion, needs to plan and implement a strategy to resolve the growing conflicts with other coastal users. At the beginning, marine farms were set up in the protected shallow bays. They caused visual and organic pollution. Besides that, conflicts have erupted between aquaculture and other users. These conflicts have caused great harm to the aquaculture industry. In order to prevent such conflicts and minimise environmental impacts, offshore mariculture systems and eco-friendly technologies have to be adopted. In addition, integrated coastal zone management models must be developed and implemented
