Fish greatly contribute to the world’s food security needs, but the mismanagement of global fisheries has reduced available stocks. Growing populations and urbanization in developing countries has increased the demand for fish, and forecasts show the global demand will continue to rise, necessitating significant structural and governance reforms to boost fish production.
Aquaculture is the practice of breeding and harvesting various aquatic organisms such as fish, and is seen as a major step toward boosting fish production across the globe. Today, aquaculture is one of the world’s fastest food producing sectors, accounting for one-third of global fish production. However, aquaculture faces a number of risks, such as reduced water quality, environmental degradation, and lack of government policies and regulation. For aquaculture to succeed, it is important for governments and industry stakeholders to find ways of mitigating these risks.
