Additional details of world aquaculture growth are presented in Table 6. In China, one of the focuses of the Thirteenth Five-Year Plan (20162020) was to green natural resource-based economic activities in the country, including aquaculture, especially in inland areas. Countries such as Mongolia, Timor-Leste and some countries in Central and West Asia are in need of accelerated aquaculture development to exploit their aquaculture potential. With 5.8 million tonnes produced in 2020, grass carp accounted for 11.8 percent of global inland aquaculture. National and local policy differs among countries in terms of control of access to and use of public open waterbodies for aquaculture, including cage and pen culture. How does international price volatility affect domestic economies and food insecurity? 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). The World Ocean SummitThe 9th annual summit on Achieving 2030 Targets will be held virtually from 1 to 4 March. The Our Ocean Conference The 7th edition of this Conference will be held in Palau from 13 to 14 April, jointly hosted by the Republic of Palau and the United States of America. At the species or species group level, to distinguish between inland and coastal aquaculture and to take into account the type of water used, FAO corrected omissions in statistical details in official data that were questionable or available in highly aggregated form in line with internationally established standards of classification and identification. IOA began during 2003 with the aim of producing 4000 tonnes per annum of export quality Black Tiger prawns to both the European and US markets. The UN Oceans Forum The 4th UN Oceans Forum,organized by the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development, will explore trade-related aspects of Sustainable Development Goal 14 (Life below water). As in past editions, the analysis of status and trends in aquaculture development relies on, though is not limited to, FAO's global aquaculture production data of 1950-2020 released in March 2022, including data adjustment for some back years for some countries as per routine standard statistical practices. In 2020, aquaculture contributed 61.7 percent to total production in upper-middle-income countries (2.76 billion population), up from 19.8 percent in 1990. 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. 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. Atlantic salmon and 21 other dominating species, such as milkfish, made up 75.6 percent of all finfish species of mariculture and coastal aquaculture. NOTE: Data expressed in live weight equivalent. 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 2020 editions theme was Sustainability in action, and you can read that report here. co-hosted by the Governments of Kenya and Portugal. Finfish farming remained steady with minimal fluctuation around 66 percent and accounting for the largest share of world aquaculture for decades. Repurposing food and agricultural policies to make healthy diets more affordable, Digital report |Printable version [pdf]|In brief| E-book MOBI/EPUB. 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. Regions such as Africa have not experienced aquaculture development of non-fed species. Global production of air-breathing fish seldom exceeded 3 percent in total production of inland finfish farming until the mid-2000s when the share started to rise to reach about 13 percent in recent years. Topics on the agenda will include. The International Year of Artisanal Fisheries and Aquaculture 2022; Part 3 BLUE TRANSFORMATION TO ACHIEVE THE 2030 AGENDA FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT . Prevalence of Undernourishment 2019-2021SDG Indicator 2.1.1, Prevalence of Moderate or Severe Food InsecuritySDG Indicator 2.1.2, Food insecurity when people live with hunger and fear starvation, Food insecurity: when people live with hunger and fear starvation, Monitoring progress towards the World Food Summit and Millennium Development Goals, Eradicating world hunger - key to achieving the Millennium Development Goals, Eradicating world hunger - taking stock ten years after the World Food Summit, High food prices and food security - threats and opportunities, Economic crises - impacts and lessons learned, Addressing food insecurity in protracted crises. Aquaculture development has exhibited different fluctuating patterns in growth among regions. A similar event will be organized, 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 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 . me freight, and efforts to combat plastic pollution and sea-level rise. Aquaculture in the rest of Africa enjoyed a double-digit growth of 14.5 percent reaching 396 700 tonnes in 2020 from 346 400 tonnes in 2019. 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). Explore the easy-to-navigate digital version of the SOFIA 2022 report. For Egypt, total finfish production in inland aquaculture refers to total national aquaculture production. Blue Transformation emphasizes the need for forward-looking and bold actions to be launched or accelerated in coming years to achieve the objectives of the Declaration and in support of the 2030 Agenda. Source of aquaculture data for analysis. The virtual session will be proceeded by a Written Correspondence Procedure in April. The State of World Fisheries and Aquaculture (SOFIA) is the biennial flagship report of the FAO Fisheries and Aquaculture Division that analyses the status of global stocks as well as trends in fisheries and aquaculture at a global and regional level. With its projections, FAO explains that growth in the aquaculture sector recovered from last year, by 2.9 percent, to 92.2 million tonnes. Other regions have had relatively fluctuating growth in the same period, experiencing negative growth in some years (Figure 14). At the regional level, African aquaculture (excluding algae) suffered from a slight contraction in its annual output (down 1.2 percent in 2020 compared with 2019), mainly the result of the drop in production in Egypt, Africas major producer. Cage culture and, to a lesser extent, pen culture are also widely used in inland aquaculture, but their relative importance varies greatly among countries. Discover more.

The real number of aquatic species farmed in the world is much greater, and the present record of finfish hybrids is only a fraction of many hybrids of not only finfish, but also molluscs, frogs, aquatic turtles and seaweeds. [2002] Development of sustainable aquaculture project: progress report (1 April 2002 - 30 June 2002) The Development of Sustainable Aquaculture Project (DSAP) was authorized by USAID under the Cooperative Agreement # 388-A-00-00-00068-00 on 28 June 2000. It presents how these and other equally important United Nations events . In 2021, the FAO Liaison Office in Brussels organized a WFiD virtual panel discussion focusing on fish value chains, with participation by the FAO Fisheries and Aquaculture Division, the Directorate-General for Maritime Affairs and Fisheries, EUROFISH International Organization, and Members of the European Parliament and the Organization for African and Caribbean States. 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. The . 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. 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). 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. Illustrations and interactive graphs highlight the SOFI 2022 key findings. 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. 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. Crustaceans were almost entirely from coastal aquaculture. Download the publication in the most common reader formats:PDF EPUB MOBI. 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. together representatives from the ocean community, businesses, scientists, government, investors and civil society, : shipping, fishing, aquaculture, energy, tourism, organized by the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development, will explore trade-related aspects of, Transitioning to a sustainable ocean economy to facilitate post-COVID-19 recovery and foster resilience, hosted by the Republic of Palau and the United, s on six areas of action: advancing marine protected areas for communities, ecosystems, and climate; tackling marine pollution; confronting the ocean-climate crisis or towards an ocean solution for climate change; creating sustainable blue economies; advancing sustainable small-scale fisheries and aquaculture; and achieving a safe just and secure ocean, eeking to propel science-based innovative solutions for global oceans, thi. In terms of quantity, marine mollusc production in China by far outweighs that of all other producers combined. 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. Chile, China and Norway the top producers in the Americas, Asia and Europe, respectively all experienced growth in 2020, offsetting the decreased output that occurred in some countries in their respective regions. In the first quarter of this year, FAO presented the biennial report "SOFIA 2022" with the analysis and relevant conclusions of the information collected in 2020. COFI is the United Nations intergovernmental forum for fisheries and aquaculture, where global challenges are discussed, and solutions identified. The State of World Fisheries and Aquaculture aims to provide objective, reliable and up-to-date information to a wide audience policymakers, managers, scientists, stakeholders and indeed everyone interested in the fisheries and aquaculture sector. 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. Therefore, the border between fed and non-fed species under certain conditions becomes less clear-cut. Despite the great diversity in farmed aquatic species, only a small number of staple species dominate aquaculture production, (Table 10). www.fao.org . Using the World Banks income level classification, the period 19902020 witnessed rapid development in aquaculture in 51 of the lower-middle-income countries and 53 of the upper-middle-income countries reporting aquaculture production. A similar event will be organized to mark WFiD 2022. , the United Nations General Assembly has declared 2022 as the, International Year of Artisanal Fisheries and Aquaculture, of events to promote the importance of fisheries and aquaculture, and. However, the development status and composition pattern of non-finfish groups differ greatly from region to region. 30 June 2022, at 12:01am. This pan-European network of government institutions, established in 1957 as a statutory body of FAO, currently has 33 member countries, as well as the European Union. The 35th Session of the FAO Committee on Fisheries (COFI) will be held in Rome from 5 to 9 September 2022. 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. 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. regional fisheries management organization was established in 1949 as a statutory body of FAO. The total aquaculture production comprised 87.5 million tonnes of aquatic animals mostly for use as human food, 35.1 million tonnes of algae10 for both food and non-food uses, 700 tonnes of shells and pearls for ornamental use, reaching a total of 122.6 million tonnes in live weight in 2020 (Figure 13). Some provinces still grant a limited number of licenses based on the carrying capacity assessment of the waterbodies, but the permit process prioritizes environmental and conservation issues over the economic value of the remaining cage culture operations. IOA is the first aquaculture operation in the Province of Cabo Delgado Mozambique. Global cultivation of algae, dominated by marine macroalgae known as seaweeds, grew by half a million tonnes in 2020, up by 1.4 percent from 34.6 million tonnes in 2019. There are indeed efforts to make progress towards SDG 2, yet they are proving insufficient in the face of a more challenging and uncertain context. In contrast, if Egypt is excluded, Africas contribution to world aquaculture production was a mere 6.6 percent in 2020, the lowest among regional and subregional groups represented in the figure. In the period 19902020, total world aquaculture expanded by 609 percent in annual output with an average growth rate of 6.7 percent per year. Some finfish species living in freshwater or marine water are capable of bimodal respiration for oxygen uptake from the air, and the physiological mechanism varies. The 2022 edition of 'The . 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. NOTE: Data in million tonnes expressed in live weight equivalent. The Summit will bring together representatives from the ocean community, businesses, scientists, government, investors and civil society to discuss six themes: shipping, fishing, aquaculture, energy, tourism, and plastics. This report covers activities for the three months of the project, 1 January 2002 through . . 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. The Declaration calls for support for an evolving and positive vision for fisheries and aquaculture in the twenty first century, where the sector is fully recognized for its contribution to fighting poverty, hunger and malnutrition. In this context, Part 1 of this edition of The State of World Fisheries and Aquaculture reviews the world status of fisheries and aquaculture, while Parts 2 and 3 are devoted to Blue Transformation and its pillars on intensifying and expanding aquaculture, improving fisheries management and innovating fisheries and aquaculture value chains. NOTES: Data exclude shells and pearls. 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. Coastal aquaculture, typically practised in constructed ponds onshore or in intertidal zones, plays an important role in livelihoods, employment and economic development among coastal communities in many developing countries particularly in Asia and Latin America. Implementation of the greening policy entailed locally coordinated clean-up plans together with a mitigation programme to protect the affected communities and individuals, and the vast majority of cages and pens were removed (Figure 19). In common with the UN Oceans Forum, the overarching theme will be SDG 14, in this case: Scaling up ocean action based on science and innovation for the implementation of Goal 14: Stocktaking, partnerships and solutions. Some major producing countries including China and Japan experienced growth in 2020, while seaweed harvests decreased in Southeast Asia and the Republic of Korea. 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. Marine shrimps dominate the production of crustaceans from coastal aquaculture in brackish-water ponds. Limitation in the process of data collection does not enable the FAO statistics to capture all the necessary details. Although filter-feeding carps were introduced in some African countries in the 1950s and 1960s for aquaculture, they did not take off and faded before the arrival of the new millennium to be replaced by locally favourable tilapias and catfishes. 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. They are an important source of foreign exchange earnings for a number of developing countries in Asia and Latin America. The report says the growth of . 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. Production of the main groups of farmed species differs significantly across regions and countries. address some of the challenges that it faces. The retroactive adjustments concern certain data-poor countries, but do not modify the conclusions on a global and regional scale reported in The State of World Fisheries and Aquaculture 2020. The report acknowledges the current recessionary context, which makes it even more challenging for many governments to increase their budgets to invest in the agrifood systems transformation that their countries need to achieve SDG 2. In 2020, aquaculture accounted for just 8 percent of total production, a slight increase compared with 3.7 percent in 1990. 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. (FAO) report presents findings of five regional and four national reports. The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) has just released the ' Food Outlook ' report, in which it reveals that it expects global fisheries and aquaculture production in 2022 to increase by 1.5% to 184.6 million tons. 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 . The share of non-fed aquaculture in total farmed aquatic animal production continued to decline from over 40 percent before 2000 to 27.8 percent in 2020, although absolute production stayed relatively stable. 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. All other regions experienced continued growth in 2020. 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, the official launch will be held in mid-2022. The regional zones are Asia, Europe . Asia has overwhelmingly dominated world aquaculture for decades, producing 91.6 percent of global aquatic animals and algae in 2020. This contribution varies greatly among and within regions (Figure 16). snakehead, Channa argus). This represents an increase of 6.7 million tonnes from 115.9 million tonnes in 2018. For example, in 2020, FAOs aquaculture data on farmed animal species covered 207 countries and territories, including national data reported or retrieved from official sources for 122 of them (59 percent). A key event in 2022 will be publication of the, FAO Fisheries and Aquaculture Divisions flagship, The State of World Fisheries and Aquaculture (SOFIA), civil society and those whose livelihoods depend on the sector, and global view of capture fisheries and aquaculture, 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, , established in 1957 as a statutory body of FAO, is the United Nations intergovernmental forum for fisheries and aquaculture, where global challenges are discussed, Declaration for Sustainable Fisheries and Aquaculture, outlines a vision of how aquatic natural resources can be used more sustainably and effectively, to attain. It will focus on six areas of action: advancing marine protected areas for communities, ecosystems, and climate; tackling marine pollution; confronting the ocean-climate crisis or towards an ocean solution for climate change; creating sustainable blue economies; advancing sustainable small-scale fisheries and aquaculture; and achieving a safe just and secure ocean. 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). Farming of finfish species dwarfs all other species groups in inland aquaculture at the regional and global levels (Table 8). 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. Also committed to the sustainable use of living marine resources and the sustainable development of aquaculture specifically in the Mediterranean and the Black Sea the General Fisheries Commission for the Mediterraneanwill be holding its 45th Session from 14 to 18 November, in Albania.With 22 Member countries and the EU, this regional fisheries management organization was established in 1949 as a statutory body of FAO. Data may not match with totals due to rounding. We are now only eight years away from 2030, but the distance to reach many of the SDG 2 targets is growing wider each year. The State of World Fisheries and Aquaculture aims to provide objective, reliable and up-to-date information to a wide audience policymakers, managers, scientists, stakeholders and indeed everyone interested in the fisheries and aquaculture sector. The report targets a wide audience, including policy-makers, international organizations, academic institutions and the general public. The estimated total farm gate value was USD 281.5 billion in 2020, an increase of USD 18.5 billion from 2018 and USD 6.7 billion from 2019. 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.
