WILMINGTON, Del., June 5, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Allied Market Research published a report, titled, "Aquaculture Market by Environment (Marine Water, Fresh Water, and Brackish Water), and Fish Type (Carps, Mollusks, Crustaceans, Mackerel, Sea Bream, and Others): Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2024-2035". According to the report, the aquaculture market was valued at $311.1 billion in 2023 and is estimated to reach $573.7 billion by 2035, growing at a CAGR of 5.2% from 2024 to 2035.
Aquaculture is the cultivation of aquatic organisms, including fish, shellfish, crustaceans, and aquatic plants, in controlled environments such as ponds, tanks, cages, or open bodies of water such as lakes and coastal areas. Commonly referred to as "fish farming" or "mariculture" when focusing on marine environments, aquaculture plays a crucial role in global food production, providing a significant portion of the world's seafood supply. It also contributes to conservation efforts, restoration of endangered species, and the production of ornamental fish and plants for aquariums. Aquaculture is expected to take various forms, from fish farming for species such as salmon and tilapia to shellfish farming for oysters and clams to crustacean farming for shrimp and lobsters, and even aquatic plant farming for seaweed. While aquaculture offers the advantage of reducing pressure on wild fish populations and supporting sustainable seafood production, it also faces challenges such as environmental impacts, disease management, and ethical concerns. Successful aquaculture practices aim to strike a balance between productivity, sustainability, and animal welfare.

Prime determinants of growth
The aquaculture market is driven by a combination of factors that include economic growth, technological advancements, and change in consumer preferences. The increasing global demand for seafood, propelled by a rising population and a shift towards healthier diets, plays a significant role. Concurrently, the decline of wild fish stocks due to overfishing and environmental degradation underscores the need for sustainable alternatives, which aquaculture provides. Technological innovations like recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) and automated feeding have improved efficiency and sustainability, further driving market growth. Government policies and support in the form of subsidies and regulations help ensure environmental compliance while promoting industry expansion. Sustainability and environmental considerations are key factors, with practices such as integrated multitrophic aquaculture (IMTA) offering eco-friendly solutions. Consumer trends toward health consciousness and a preference for sustainably produced seafood also contribute to the market growth.
