The FAO Fisheries database of statistics on aquaculture production and values has been updated to include data for 2004. Total aquaculture production of aquatic animals (i.e., excluding aquatic plants) for 2004 was reported to be 45.5 million tonnes1 with a farm-gate value of US$ 63.4 billion. With the inclusion of aquatic plants, the production increases to 59.4 million tonnes with a value of US$ 70.3 billion. Growth in global aquaculture continues to be strong as these figures represent an increase in production of 7.7 percent from the total aquaculture production reported for 2003, and a 6.6 percent increase when only aquatic animals are considered. Considering the tenyear period from 1994-2004, total aquaculture production shows an average annual increase of 7.9 percent.
