As we move into the next millennium, the domestic and international requirement for both high and low valued fish and aquatic plants for direct and indirect consumption is likely to increase due to a combination of rising populations, living standards and disposable incomes. While the predictions of supply of fish required to meet future needs varies, it is widely acknowledged that fish yield from traditional marine and inland capture fisheries, which reached 95 million tonnes in 1996, is unlikely to increase substantially (SOFIA 1998) and that expectations from the aquaculture sector to meet rising demand will probably increase. For aquaculture, the challenges we therefore face are how to: (a) sustain and increase the current mean annual global growth rate and (ii) strengthen and promote aquaculture as a legitimate and sustainable long term farming activity.
