A literature review was conducted to determine the barriers and facilitators to shellfish cultivation using Northern Ireland (NI) as a case study. This review included 23 papers, published in 14 journals, indexed in the Web of Science database. The eligibility criteria included (i) peer‐reviewed articles or websites from key government or agency stakeholders in the aquaculture supply chain; (ii) had a primary focus on shellfish production; and (iii) made reference to the United Kingdom, Ireland or NI. Six key categories were identified as impacting the aquaculture sector: Economic, Environmental, Technical, Welfare, Political and Consumer factors. The most commonly cited codes within these categories included regulations, management decisions, environmental welfare, weather conditions, consumer needs and water quality. Within the scientific literature, the study designs were variable and NI‐specific data were limited. However, the recommendations were relatively consistent. More evidence‐based data collection is needed to better establish the status of the aquaculture industry in this region and to provide more effective management practices and recommendations. The information gained from this review allowed the identification and discussion of the challenges and opportunities for shellfish production worldwide; an insight into production in NI; and preliminary recommendations for improving this industry. As a result, the review offers important foundations and lessons for other aquaculture production units across the world to assess their industry.

贝类养殖的障碍和促进者

进行了文献综述，以确定使用北爱尔兰（NI）作为案例研究的贝类养殖障碍和促进因素。这篇综述包括23篇论文，发表在14种期刊上，并在Web of Science数据库中建立了索引。资格标准包括（i）来自水产养殖供应链中主要政府或机构利益相关者的同行评审文章或网站；（ii）主要关注贝类生产；（iii）提及英国，爱尔兰或NI。确定了影响水产养殖部门的六个关键类别：经济，环境，技术，福利，政治和消费者因素。这些类别中最常引用的法规包括法规，管理决策，环境福利，天气条件，消费者需求和水质。在科学文献中，研究设计是可变的，并且特定于NI的数据是有限的。但是，这些建议是相对一致的。需要更多基于证据的数据收集，以更好地确定该区域水产养殖业的状况，并提供更有效的管理方法和建议。从这次审查中获得的信息使人们能够确定和讨论世界范围内贝类生产的挑战和机遇；对NI生产的洞察力；以及改善该行业的初步建议。结果，该审查为世界各地其他水产养殖生产单位评估其行业提供了重要的基础和经验教训。这些建议是相对一致的。需要更多基于证据的数据收集，以更好地确定该区域水产养殖业的状况，并提供更有效的管理方法和建议。从这次审查中获得的信息使人们能够确定和讨论世界范围内贝类生产的挑战和机遇；对NI生产的洞察力；以及改善该行业的初步建议。结果，该审查为世界各地其他水产养殖生产单位评估其行业提供了重要的基础和经验教训。这些建议是相对一致的。需要更多基于证据的数据收集，以更好地确定该区域水产养殖业的状况，并提供更有效的管理方法和建议。从这次审查中获得的信息使人们能够确定和讨论世界范围内贝类生产的挑战和机遇；对NI生产的洞察力；以及改善该行业的初步建议。结果，该审查为世界各地其他水产养殖生产单位评估其行业提供了重要的基础和经验教训。从这次审查中获得的信息使人们能够确定和讨论世界范围内贝类生产的挑战和机遇；对NI生产的洞察力；以及改善该行业的初步建议。结果，该审查为世界各地其他水产养殖生产单位评估其行业提供了重要的基础和经验教训。从这次审查中获得的信息使人们能够确定和讨论世界范围内贝类生产的挑战和机遇；对NI生产的洞察力；以及改善该行业的初步建议。结果，该审查为世界各地其他水产养殖生产单位评估其行业提供了重要的基础和经验教训。
