Global Fish Farming Market Outlook

The global fish farming market size reached approximately USD 306.88 billion in 2023. The market is projected to grow during the forecast period of 2024-2032 at a CAGR of 5.7% to reach a value of around USD 504.80 billion by 2032.

 

Key Takeaways

  • In 2020, the total production from fisheries and aquaculture reached a total of 214 million tonnes.
  • Asia holds a leading position in the aquaculture sector, accounting for around 90% of the total production.
  • India, during 2021-22, produced over 16 million tonnes of fish, making it the third largest global producer.

 

Fish farming or pisciculture is a form of aquaculture that involves the breeding of fish in an enclosed area for various commercial, mainly food, purposes. This practice can take place in controlled freshwater or saltwater environments, including ponds, tanks, enclosures, or net pens in rivers, lakes, or the ocean.

 

Sustainability has been the key factor propelling the fish farming market growth. The rising food production requirements and technological advancements allowing more efficient and sustainable fish farming have further propelled the market. Reduced reliance on wild-caught fish for feed, improved waste management, and adoption of integrated multi-trophic aquaculture (IMTA) by farmers are making fish farming more environmentally friendly.

Key Trends and Developments

Increasing emphasis on sustainable practices; technological innovations; genetic improvements; and market diversification to meet global seafood demand efficiently and responsibly are positively impacting the fish farming market growth

 

Date Event
Feb 22nd 2024 Norwegian Mountain Salmon announced plans to construct a 90,000-tonne land-based salmon farm in Lewis, Outer Hebrides, using technology similar to its flow-through site on Norway's Utsira island.
Nov 19th 2023 Uttar Pradesh was recognised as India's top state for inland pisciculture and was awarded by the Union Ministry at the global fisheries conference on World Fisheries Day next week.
Jun 5th 2023 The Terraforming LIFE project, aimed at upcycling fish waste from Iceland's aquaculture, secured a €6.3 million EU grant to develop innovative waste treatment and value-addition methods.
Jun 23rd 2023 Maine's Governor signed a law setting stocking density limits for fish farms, aimed at preventing the development of oversized aquaculture operations in the state's waters.

 

 

Focus Description
Rising adoption of sustainable practices There is an increasing adoption of eco-friendly aquaculture methods, like recirculating systems and polyculture, to minimise environmental impact and ensure long-term viability of fish farming.
Increasing technological innovations Advanced technologies such as AI, IoT, and robotics are increasingly adopted by farmers for monitoring fish health, optimising feeding, and improving overall farm efficiency.
Genetic Improvements to increase production The rising focus on selective breeding and genetic modification to enhance growth rates, disease resistance, and yield, while boosting sustainable and profitable production is aiding the market.
Growing global food production requirements Key players are expanding into non-traditional species and organic aquaculture to meet growing consumer demand for variety and sustainably sourced seafood products.

 

Global Fish Farming Market Trends

The global market for fish farming is primarily being driven by the rising food requirements around the world and changes in food consumption patterns all over the world. Governments across various nations are pushing cage and freshwater fish farming to meet the rising food demand, which is favourably impacting the market growth.

 

Ongoing technological improvements in fishing equipment, as well as introduction of various initiatives to boost aqua farming, are supporting the global fish farming market. Import tariff reductions have been a primary driver for international trade expansion of fish and fish-based products. In addition, the growing health consciousness among consumers and the increased consumption of fish as a key source of protein are also expected to boost the market growth in the forecast period.

Market Segmentation

“Global Fish Farming Market Report and Forecast 2024-2032” offers a detailed analysis of the market based on the following segments:

 

Market Breakup Categories
Environment Marine Water, Fresh Water, Brackish Water
Fish Type Salmon, Milkfish, Tuna, Tilapia, Catfish, Sea Bass, Others
Region North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, Middle East and Africa

 

The increasing demand for fresh water fishes is propelling the market growth

Freshwater environment is expected to cover a major share of the global fish farming market share. Fishes such as carp, tilapia, catfish, and trout are extensively produced and the adaptability of these species to different freshwater environments contributes to the widespread practice of freshwater aquaculture. Additionally, freshwater aquaculture systems are less expensive to set up and maintain as compared to marine and brackish water systems.

 

Meanwhile, marine fish farming is expected to cover a substantial part of the global market due to the production of high-value fishes such as salmon and others. However, farming in such environment requires access to suitable coastal environments and often more substantial infrastructure and investment, particularly for offshore operations.

 

Freshwater fishes are expected to dominate the fish farming market share in the coming years

Owing to it being highly accessible and affordable, tilapia  has been the most widely produced fish. Tilapia has been regarded as the most farmed fish in over 120 countries. The growing tilapia cultivation is being fuelled by the adoption of several recirculation systems, such as biofloc technology (BFT), recirculation aquaculture systems (RASs), bio-RAS, partitioned aquaculture systems, and integrated multitrophic aquaculture (IMTA).

 

Salmon is also likely to be one of the most widely known and consumed marine fish globally in the forecast period. The popularity of this species can be attributed to its health benefits, flavour, and versatility. Meanwhile, tuna is increasingly being consumed around the world with the rising health awareness due to its richness in omega 3 fatty acids.

Competitive Landscape

Major players in the market are focused in adopting advanced technologies to transform recycling procedures:

 

Company Headquarters Operations Specialisation
Alpha Group Ltd. Now Health Group Mombasa, Kenya International frozen fish, seafood, and fresh products supplier Deep sea fishing and export, lake fishing, meat products, dairy products, and aqua culture
Cermaq Group AS Oslo, Norway Global aquaculture company Farming salmon and trout
Cooke Aquaculture Inc. New Brunswick, Canada Vertically integrated seafood company Salmon and trout farming, wild fisheries, processing and marketing seafood products
Lerøy Seafood Group ASA Bergen, Norway Seafood corporation Entire value chain from hatcheries and fish farming to processing, marketing, and sales of seafood

 

Major companies in the fish farming market are increasingly adopting recycling and automation technologies to improve efficiency and sustainability. They have placed emphasis on RAS, which allow for the recycling of water within fish farms. These systems significantly reduce the environmental impact of aquaculture by reducing water use, controlling disease spread, and reducing effluents. Additionally, technologies such as automated feeding systems, underwater drones, and sensors are being used to monitor fish health, water quality, and optimise feeding.

 

Global Fish Farming Market Analysis by Region

The Asia Pacific is the largest in terms of aquaculture production, with China being the world's leading producer of farmed fish. This region benefits from a long history of fish farming and constitutes a significant portion of its seafood production.

 

Other notable contributors include India, Vietnam, Indonesia, and Thailand, focusing on species like carp, tilapia, and shrimp. The region's growth is driven by a high demand for seafood, availability of suitable farming areas, and relatively low labour costs.

 

Meanwhile, North America and Europe have a well-established fish farming market. Both regions are increasingly adopting sustainable technologies and practices. The United States and Canada in the North American region have an extensive production of salmon, trout, and shellfish.
