Aquaculture stands at the nexus of meeting the growing demand for seafood while mitigating environmental impacts and resource constraints. The advent of Internet of Things (IoT) technology offers unprecedented opportunities to revolutionize aquaculture practices, enhancing efficiency, productivity, and sustainability. It can increase the efficiency of aquaculture practice by collecting data from various devices and sensors, which can be used to analyze environmental patterns and fish behavior. However, most aquaculture-producing countries still employ traditional methods instead of modern technology. Numerous cautions and unresolved issues, such as economic and operational viability criteria, accompany the potential of the IoT. A cautious IoT adoption should avoid stranded assets, sunken investment costs, or the long-term ruination of traditional industry knowledge. Most IoT applications in aquaculture remain untapped, and academic research and extension/outreach stakeholders play a crucial role in facilitating knowledge sharing. A proactive approach considering the advantages and pitfalls of IoT in aquaculture can guide businesses and policy decision-makers towards best practices and optimal use of IoT tools and infrastructure. This paper comprehensively reviews the challenges impeding the widespread adoption of IoT in aquaculture and explores potential solutions based on current trends and future projections.
