Abstract This paper is a comprehensive study of the strategic approach, in the context of global population growth, to create more food using current natural resources. Integrated multi-trophic aquaculture (IMTA) can provide aquaculture products in much larger quantities using the same resources involved. Harnessing all the waste in the waters for this purpose brings multiple environmental and economic benefits. In the context of the circular economy, IMTA principles aim to significantly reduce waste and degrade the environment, but without restricting economic and social progress. In Romania, polyculture fish farming is practised to exploit all aquatic resources in fish farms. Each fish species is selected so that it can be nutritionally supported with natural feed from the environment, and various types of feed can be used to increase production. The results of the study can be used to improve the aquaculture development strategy, in the environmental sustainability context.
