However, there are huge differences in the level of aquaculture development between countries within Asia. In general, it can be summarized that aquaculture continues to grow at a slower rate than in previous years, due to increased control of production in China for environmental . Despite the great diversity in farmed aquatic species, only a small number of staple species dominate aquaculture production, (Table 10). Atlantic salmon is representative of sea cage culture of coldwater species, while finfish produced by sea cage farmers in China are mostly warmwater species and their composition is more diverse. These countries, such as Egypt in Africa, and Bangladesh and Viet Nam in Asia, set successful examples for aquaculture development in other countries with similar conditions and where potential exists for aquaculture development. NOTE: Data in million tonnes expressed in live weight equivalent. However, its contribution would be even lower without the 40.1 percent decrease in capture production in the same period (from 38.1 million tonnes to 22.8 million tonnes). In 2020, non-fed production of animal species was 24.3 million tonnes, comprising 8.2 million tonnes of filter-feeding finfish reared in inland aquaculture (mainly silver carp and bighead carp) and 16.2 million tonnes of aquatic invertebrates, mainly marine bivalves (Figure 21). This contribution varies greatly among and within regions (Figure 16). The latest statistics compiled by FAO, based on national reports and estimates for non-reporting countries, cover all aquaculture productions worldwide in a 71-year period (19502020) under 652 units technically known as species items an increase from the 622 reported in the 2020 edition of The State of World Aquaculture and Fisheries. A key event in 2022 will be publication of the FAO Fisheries and Aquaculture Divisions flagship report, The State of World Fisheries and Aquaculture (SOFIA). In the 26 low-income countries reporting aquaculture data (0.86 billion population), mostly in sub-Saharan Africa, aquaculture development has made limited progress in terms of its contribution to total fisheries production. Production of other farmed aquatic animal species reached 17.7 million tonnes of molluscs (USD 29.8 billion) mostly bivalves, 11.2 million tonnes of crustaceans (USD 81.5 billion), 525 000 tonnes of aquatic invertebrates (USD 2.5 billion) and 537 000 tonnes of semi-aquatic species including turtles and frogs (USD 5 billion). The regional zones are Asia, Europe . It is relatively easy to separate mariculture and coastal aquaculture of crustaceans, molluscs and other marine invertebrates based on the biological characteristics of these species and the culture methods adopted to rear them. Because there are places in the world where natural or modified saline waters are used for aquaculture, The State of World Aquaculture and Fisheries 2022 maintains the term inland aquaculture, although another term, freshwater aquaculture, is widely used when saline water is not a concern. In recent years, authorities have started campaigns to reduce cage culture in some waterbodies. Illustrations and interactive graphs highlight the SOFIA 2022 key findings. Fed aquaculture production progressively outpaced that of non-fed species.

This report covers activities for the three months of the project, 1 January 2002 through . Some middle-income countries dominate inland aquaculture production of finfish species. As in past editions, the analysis of status and trends in aquaculture development relies on, though is not limited to, FAOs global aquaculture production data of 19502020 released in March 2022, including data adjustment for some back years for some countries as per routine standard statistical practices. Out of 61 producing countries and territories reporting algae cultivation, FAO collected official production data from 36 of them; their combined production was 34.7 million tonnes, or 98 percent of world production in 2020. It presents how these and other equally important United Nations events, such as the International Year of Artisanal Fisheries and Aquaculture (IYAFA 2022), are being integrated and supported through Blue Transformation, a priority area of FAOs new Strategic Framework 20222031 designed to accelerate achievement of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development in food and agriculture. ivision, the Directorate-General for Maritime Affairs and Fisheries, EUROFISH International Organization, Members of the European Parliament and the Organization for African and Caribbean States. This represents an increase of 6.7 million tonnes from 115.9 million tonnes in 2018. Other noteworthy international fisheries events in 2022 include the following, noting that dates and modalities may change due to the COVID-19 pandemic: The One Ocean Summit France, which holds the Presidency of the Council of the EU from January to June 2022, will host this gathering of heads of state and international leaders from 9 to 11 February in Brest. The 35th Session of the FAO Committee on Fisheries (COFI) will be held in Rome from 5 to 9 September 2022. June 2022. In 2020, global inland aquaculture production was 54.4 million tonnes, accounting for 44.4 percent of the world total aquaculture production of animal species and algae, and inland farming of aquatic animal species represented 62.2 percent of total aquaculture production. The 2022 edition of The State of World Fisheries and Aquaculture coincides with the launch of the Decade of Action to deliver the Global Goals, the United Nations Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development and the United Nations Decade on Ecosystem Restoration.

Worldwide data on inland cage and pen culture are unavailable. A key event in 2022 will be publication of the FAO Fisheries and Aquaculture Division's flagship report, The State of World Fisheries and Aquaculture (SOFIA).Produced every two years to provide policy-makers, academics, civil society and those whose livelihoods depend on the sector with a comprehensive, objective, and global view of capture fisheries and aquaculture, t he official launc h . NOTES: = data unavailable, or no production. In the largest producing region, Asia, growth in the period 19902020 has been relatively steady in the major aquaculture countries, although with decreasing growth rates. NOTES: Data exclude shells and pearls. Some such as Norway and Chile (endowed with large areas of fjords protected from rough sea), plus China from the middle-income group, dominate world mariculture of finfish species with sea cages. Significant growth in aquaculture has driven global fisheries and aquaculture production to a record high as aquatic foods make an increasingly critical contribution to food security and nutrition in the 21st century, according to a report from the UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) released a few days ago. Atlantic salmon, with its production of 2.7 million tonnes in 2020, accounted for a high 32.6 percent of marine and coastal aquaculture of all finfish species. co-hosted by the Governments of Kenya and Portugal. conflict, climate extremes and economic shocks) combined with the high cost of nutritious foods and growing inequalities will continue to challenge food security and nutrition. The virtual session will be proceeded by a Written Correspondence Procedure in April. Crustaceans were almost entirely from coastal aquaculture. Also, brackish-water aquaculture in constructed ponds on seashores in coastal areas classified nationally or locally in some places as inland aquaculture is treated in this report as coastal aquaculture. The 494 taxonomically recognized species ever farmed in the world include 313 species of finfish (in 186 genera), 88 species of molluscs, 49 species of crustaceans, 31 species of algae, 2 species of cyanobacteria, 6 species of marine invertebrates, 3 species of frogs (amphibians) and 2 species of aquatic turtles (reptiles). However, the net increase of 2.3 million tonnes in the same period was comparable to some years in the last decade. The picture of mariculture and coastal aquaculture production of the main species groups, disaggregated by region is presented in Table 8. international fisheries events in 2022 include the following, , noting that dates and modalities may change due to the COVID-19 pandemic, from January to June 2022, will host this gathering of, in Brest. Asia has overwhelmingly dominated world aquaculture for decades, producing 91.6 percent of global aquatic animals and algae in 2020. Skip to header tools and search; Skip to navigation; Skip to content; More Less Advanced Search Otherwise, mariculture refers only to the grow-out phase of the production cycle when a species is produced from a land-based hatchery and sometimes even in freshwater, as is the case for Atlantic salmon. Species from three families accounted for 83.9 percent of total production of air-breathing finfishes in 2020, including 47 percent from Pangasiidae (e.g. Some major producing countries including China and Japan experienced growth in 2020, while seaweed harvests decreased in Southeast Asia and the Republic of Korea. Committee on Fisheries, Thirty-four Session, Regional Office for Europe and Central Asia, Regional Office for Latin America and the Caribbean, Regional Office for the Near East and North Africa. In multi-species polyculture systems practised in inland and coastal aquaculture, feeds intended for fed species also directly benefit filter-feeding species, especially when feeds in powder form are used or pellet feeds are low in water stability and dissolve quickly. Pemba, Mozambique. With a mission to promote the long-term sustainable development, utilization, conservation, restoration and responsible management of European inland fisheries and aquaculture, consistent with the objectives and principles of the FAO Code of Conduct for Responsible Fisheries, the European Inland Fisheries and Aquaculture Advisory Commission (EIFAAC) will be holding its 31st Session in Killarney, Ireland, from 22 to 24 June. World inland aquaculture employs very diverse culture methods and facilities. Based on available data, Table 9 presents cage culture and pen culture production, in comparison with national total inland aquaculture production of finfish in selected countries. FAO 'World Review of Capture Fisheries and Aquaculture Insurance 2022' has recommended that private and public insurance service providers work together as there is low penetration of insurance products in the fisheries sector. Many developing countries, in particular low-income countries, face great challenges to achieve their national aspirations of aquaculture development in support of national food production to feed and create jobs for their growing populations. Atlantic salmon and 21 other dominating species, such as milkfish, made up 75.6 percent of all finfish species of mariculture and coastal aquaculture. However, total production data of these countries reached over 85.4 million tonnes, representing 97.6 percent of world production in 2020. These countries include New Zealand (86.9 percent), France (75.4 percent), Spain (74.8 percent), the Republic of Korea (69.7 percent), Italy (61.6 percent) and Japan (51.8 percent), against a world average of 18.4 percent. The average annual growth rate had decreased gradually from 9.5 percent during the period 19902000 to 4.6 percent during 20102020. Data expressed in live weight equivalent. The concept of Blue Transformation emerged from the Thirty-fourth Session of the FAO Committee on Fisheries in February 2021, and in particular the Declaration for Sustainable Fisheries and Aquaculture, which was negotiated and endorsed by all FAO Members. However, in coastal areas in Africa, joint efforts (such as setting up internationally owned hatcheries) to accelerate development in marine molluscs farming represent a realistic option for increasing aquatic food12 production. Significant growth in aquaculture has driven global fisheries and aquaculture production to a record high as aquatic foods make an increasingly critical contribution to food security and nutrition in the 21st century, according to FAO's 2022 edition of The State of World Fisheries and Aquaculture (SOFIA). This will be the case until agrifood systems are transformed, become more resilient and are delivering lower cost nutritious foods and affordable healthy diets for all, sustainably and inclusively. SOFIA is a critical reference for governments, policy makers, academics, civil society and all actors working in the fisheries and aquaculture . On a world scale, the contribution of aquaculture to total fisheries and aquaculture production (excluding algae) has climbed steadily, reaching 49.2 percent in 2020 on a par with capture, compared with just 13.4 percent in 1990. The growth rate reduced further to 3.3 percent per year in the most recent years (20152020). Production of the main groups of farmed species differs significantly across regions and countries. (FAO) report presents findings of five regional and four national reports. Global fisheries and aquaculture at a glance, Total fisheries and aquaculture production, Utilization and processing of fisheries and aquaculture production, Trade of fisheries and aquaculture products, Blue Transformation: a vision for transforming aquatic food systems, Intensifying and expanding sustainable aquaculture production, Innovating fisheries and aquaculture value chains, The International Year of Artisanal Fisheries and Aquaculture 2022, Decade of Action to deliver the Global Goals, United Nations Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development (20212030), United Nations Decade on Ecosystem Restoration, Fisheries and aquaculture adaptations to climate change, Advancing towards gender equality in fisheries and aquaculture. The uneven distribution in aquaculture production and the disparity in aquaculture development status across regions and among countries in the same region have not shown significant improvement for decades. The 2022 edition of The State of World Fisheries and Aquaculture coincides with the launch of the Decade of Action to deliver the Global Goals, the United Nations Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development and the United Nations Decade on Ecosystem Restoration. The 2020 editions theme was Sustainability in action, and you can read that report here. Most major aquaculture producing countries are highly populated developing countries where aquaculture contributes more than half of total fisheries and aquaculture production, benefiting half of the global population. It has proven difficult, if not impossible, to identify and develop native finfish species to play the role of filter-feeding carps in developing low-cost inland polyculture aquaculture with improved efficiency in harnessing natural productivity of the rearing water. Since 1991, China (mainland) has produced more farmed aquatic animals and algae than the rest of the world. Global aquaculture production retained its growth trend in 2020 amid the worldwide spread of the COVID-19 pandemic (see the section COVID-19, a crisis like no other, and Box 2), albeit with differences among regions and among producing countries within each region. It presents how these and other equally important United Nations events, such as the International Year of Artisanal Fisheries and Aquaculture (IYAFA 2022), are being integrated and supported through Blue Transformation, a priority area of FAOs new Strategic Framework 20222031 designed to accelerate achievement of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development in food and agriculture. me freight, and efforts to combat plastic pollution and sea-level rise. In the Philippines and Indonesia, cage and pen culture (including enclosures) in rivers, lakes and reservoirs has been undergoing significant development for decades. The report targets a wide audience, including policy-makers, international organizations, academic institutions and the general public. In Nigeria, the largest producer in sub-Saharan Africa, the declining trend since 2016 worsened in 2020 with a sharp decrease of 9.6 percent. In 2020, farmed finfish reached 57.5 million tonnes (USD 146.1 billion), including 49.1 million tonnes (USD 109.8 billion) from inland aquaculture and 8.3 million tonnes (USD 36.2 billion) from mariculture in the sea and coastal aquaculture on the shore. Hence, the report then takes a deep dive into how governments are supporting the food and agriculture sector through policies, and based on evidence, it provides recommendations. The occasion, will be marked by celebrations around the world, and FAO has scheduled a rich programme of events to promote the importance of fisheries and aquaculture, and to address some of the challenges that it faces. In terms of quantity, marine mollusc production in China by far outweighs that of all other producers combined. NOTE: Data in thousand tonnes expressed in live weight equivalent. They include 494 individual species, 7 finfish hybrids, 94 groups of species identified at genus level and 57 groups of species identified at family or higher levels. Cage culture and, to a lesser extent, pen culture are also widely used in inland aquaculture, but their relative importance varies greatly among countries. striped catfish, Pangasianodon hypophthalmus), 26.5 percent from Clariidae (e.g. Source of aquaculture data for analysis.
