Abstract

Aquaculture now accounts for 48.6 per cent of fish produced for human consumption globally. It is the fastest-growing food-production sector, with an annual growth rate of about 6.5 per cent. However, trends indicate a gradual decline in this rate, which could, by 2030, dip to around four per cent. But to meet the growing global demand for fish, it is estimated that aquaculture production would need to grow by 5.6 per cent annually. There are also regional imbalances in world aquaculture production, with Asia accounting for most of the output.
