Commentary: comparing efficiency in aquatic and terrestrial animal production systems
Aquaculture is receiving increased attention from a variety of stakeholders. This is largely due to its current role in the global food system of supplying more than half of the seafood consumed, and also because the industry continues to steadily expand (UN Food and Agriculture Organization 2018). A recent article in Environmental Research Letters, 'Feed conversion efficiency in aquaculture: Do we measure it correctly?', by Fry et al (2018a) found that measuring feed conversion efficiency of selected aquatic and terrestrial farmed animals using protein and calorie retention resulted in species comparisons (least to most efficient) and overlap among species dissimilar from comparisons based on widely used weight-based feed conversion ratio (FCR) values. The study prompted spirited discussions among researchers, industry representatives, and others. A group assembled to write a standard rebuttal, but during this process, decided it was best to engage the study's original authors to join the discourse. Through this collaboration, we provide the resultant additional context relevant to the study in order to advance conversations and research on the use of efficiency measures in aquatic and terrestrial animal production systems.
Building Towards One Health: A Transdisciplinary Autoethnographic Approach to Understanding Perceptions of Sustainable Aquatic Foods in Vietnam
As Vietnam navigates challenges to its animal, human, and environmental health (One Health) during rapid economic transitions, understanding local perceptions of sustainable food systems, particularly aquatic foods, is vital. This study employs a transdisciplinary, autoethnographic approach to exploring the cultural significance of aquatic food perceptions within Vietnamese communities. Data were primarily sourced through an autoethnographic triangulation method, involving detailed field diaries, vignettes, and interactive workshop data collected from local stakeholders. Our distinctive approach, involving researchers from environmental science, computer science, linguistics, political ecology, aquaculture, nutrition, human physiology, marketing, and accounting and accountability, as both participants and observers, illuminates the lived experiences that shape food perceptions within Vietnam’s specific food agro-ecosystems. By embedding aquatic food perceptions within the One Health framework, we identify key intersections between human, animal, and environmental health. Through cross-disciplinary narrative analysis, our study uncovers the social, political, economic, cultural, and linguistic dimensions surrounding aquatic food perceptions at local, regional, and national levels in Vietnam. Our study highlights the unique contribution of qualitative methods to addressing questions that hard data cannot answer in understanding perceptions of aquatic foods. The study emphasizes the need for an integrated, culturally informed, and transdisciplinary approach to addressing the complex factors influencing One Health outcomes in Vietnam. This research contributes to the broader discourse on sustainable food practices and One Health initiatives, proposing culturally informed interventions aimed at enhancing ecological resilience and public health.

Pinkman wins Hambo
Mission Brief, [Yannick Gingras]' choice, in 1:51 at the Meadowlands Racetrack. \"To get the opportunity to drive a horse like that, I feel so lucky,\" said Sears. \"What a wonderful horse. He did all the work, deserves all the credit, I just got lucky and found the right spot.\" Sears and [Pinkman] had never teamed up until the Hambletonian. Sears didn't even find out he was driving the horse until he spotted trainer Jimmy Takter in the paddock less than an hour to post time.

Filly on a Mission
Trainer Ron Burke is on a mission. His filly Mission Brief seeks to become the first female since Continental Victory in 1996 to win harness racing's greatest event, the Hambletonian for 3-year-old trotters, Saturday at the Meadowlands Racetrack. The daughter of 2009 Hambletonian winner Muscle Hill wasn't even a certainty to take on the boys in the Hambo, but after winning the Dr. Harry Zweig on July 26 at Vernon Downs, Burke decided to go for it. \"It was a 100%,\" Burke said. \"Without that race, I wasn't going to be able to get everybody on board to go.
