Abstract
This briefing presents an overview of inland aquaculture scenario that focuses on challenges of aquaculture farming, contaminant transport and the future of aqua farming in a broader perspective of environmental geotechnics. Un-engineered aquaculture practices are a cause of concern, and special attention is necessary in waste water management, cross-contamination with the adjacent environment, sludge-subsoil interaction, pond embankment slope failure, leachate migration into the vadose zone, geoenvironmental remediation strategies and geotechnical engineering aspects of engineered pond construction. © 2025 Emerald Publishing Limited: All rights reserved.
