Factors Affecting the Growth of the Aquaculture Industry:
- Increasing Demand for Seafood:
With the increasing global population and inflating disposable income levels, there is a rise in the demand for protein-rich food like seafood. Aquaculture allows for the controlled and predictable production of seafood. Besides this, the cultivation of various seafood species under controlled conditions offers to meet specific consumer preferences and demands. Seafood is recognized for its health benefits, including being a rich source of essential nutrients like omega-3 fatty acids. As consumers become more health-conscious, the demand for seafood continues to rise.
- Technological Advancements:
Advances in genetics and selective breeding have led to the development of fish strains with desirable traits, such as faster growth rates, disease resistance, and better feed conversion efficiency. Innovative techniques for disease prevention, detection, and treatment help mitigate disease outbreaks in aquaculture systems. Additionally, automated feeding systems equipped with sensors and software algorithms enable precise feeding management based on fish behavior, environmental conditions, and nutritional requirements. Also, recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) technology recycles and treats water within closed-loop systems and minimizes water usage.
- Government Support and Regulations:
Government-funded research institutions and programs focus on developing innovative technologies and best practices by improving productivity, environmental sustainability, and competitiveness. Moreover, governing agencies of numerous countries are investing in infrastructure projects, such as the construction of hatcheries, processing plants, cold storage facilities, and transportation networks, to support the aquaculture supply chain. They provide extension services, technical assistance, and training programs to educate aquaculture farmers on disease management and market development, which improves the skills and knowledge of farmers.
