Abstract

Viet Nam is endowed with an abundant supply of water resources that are ideal for fisheries and aquaculture. It has a 3 260 km long coastline, 112 estuaries, 1 million km2 of Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) and more than 4 000 islands which form many bays, straits and lagoons. The total annual allowable sustainable marine fisheries catch is estimated at 1.4 million tonnes (mt) per year. There are an additional 1.4 million ha of freshwater, brackishwater and marine water-surface available for aquaculture purposes. However, the productivity of aquaculture is rather low (250-300 kg/ha) compared to other countries in the region.
