水产养殖: the booming animal protein
The industrial development of aquaculture industry is quite recent and fast. Did you know that the production and consumption of fish and other aquatic organisms in the world grow continuously every year? According to the FAO (2024) consumption of all aquatic animal production is 89 % which is equivalent to 20.7 kg per capita in the year 2022. This represents more than 15% of global animal protein consumption, and it is expected to reach 21.到2030年达到5公斤. In the year 2022 global aquacultural production is valued at USD 312.8 billion, which equates to 130.9 million tons or 59% of global fisheries and aquacultural production. Inland aquaculture reached 62.6 % of farmed aquatic animals of total global production, w在这里as marine and coastal production accounted for 37.4%. 2022 aquaculture production surpassed capture fisheries with 94.4 million tons (FAO, 2024).
An uneven geographical spread
The consumption and production of aquatic animal protein sources is very unevenly distributed. Asia as a whole region makes up 91.4% of the global total production of aquatic animals and plants (e.g. algae), followed by Latin America and the Caribbean (3.3%)，欧洲(2%).7%)，非洲(1%).9%), Northern America (0.5%)和大洋洲(0.5%).2%). A total of ten countries produced 89.8% of the total aquatic production, 即中国, 印尼, 印度, 越南, 孟加拉国, 菲律宾, 韩国, 挪威, 埃及和智利(粮农组织), 2024).
养鱼与. 野生捕获
Fortunately marine species are increasingly pro侦探ted and the mindset of Blue Transformation is setting in. According to the FAO (2024), 76.9% of aquaculture already comes from biologically sustainable populations and this proportion is expected to continue increasing in the coming years. As a matter of fact the amount of 野生捕获 has only grown with 14% since 1990. By far most of the increased demand has been solved by industrialized aquaculture. That industry has grown 527% (!)在同一时期. The efforts of this industry globally are paying off. This is a relief for the environment but for us as consumers as well, since fish and fishery products are considered among the healthiest foods with the least impact on the environment.
