Our purpose

Jurnal Riset Akuakultur (JRA) provides a scholarly forum for research and critical discussion across aquaculture. It connects researchers, educators, practitioners, and decision makers through original research articles and scientific reviews. Contributions should advance understanding, explain their scientific significance, and make a clear connection to aquaculture.

Research disciplines

Genetics & reproduction

Breeding, genetic improvement, reproductive biology, seed production, and related technologies.

Aquaculture biotechnology

Biological and molecular approaches with a clear aquaculture application.

Nutrition & feed

Nutrient requirements, feed resources, formulation, feeding strategies, and production performance.

Aquatic animal health

Disease, diagnostics, prevention, host responses, and health management in cultured organisms.

Aquaculture engineering

Culture systems, equipment, process design, and production technologies.

Environment & impact

Interactions between aquaculture and its environment, including water quality and impact assessment.

Socio-economics & governance

Economic, social, and governance questions affecting aquaculture development.

Is your manuscript a good fit?

  • Explain the research question, the knowledge gap, and the contribution beyond a description of local conditions.
  • Use methods and analyses that support the stated conclusions. Discuss limitations and the relevance of the findings to the wider field.
  • For reviews, offer a critical synthesis and identify research needs rather than merely listing previous studies.
