Perceptions fuelling the demand for high value imported aquatic food in China
China is a dominant player in the global aquatic food market, importing around USD 22 billion worth of aquatic foods in 2022, primarily highvalue species such as Atlantic salmon, lobster, abalone, and sea cucumber. Despite this, the drivers behind the demand for high-value imported aquatic food in China are under-researched compared to Western markets. This study explores these drivers and provides insights into the perceptions shaping demand. Se…
Adolescent girls in aquaculture ecozones at risk of nutrient deficiency in Bangladesh development and validation of an integrated metric
Observational data on different aquaculture-ecozones defined by salinity enabled us to establish linkages between seasonal fish intake, religion, diet diversity, female autonomy and nutritional wellbeing. The purpose of the metric is to reveal these specific linkages in practice. This tool should improve targeting of timely, preventative and cost-effective nutritional interventions to adolescent girls most at-risk from low omega-3 levels in commu…
Opportunities and limitations for the introduction of circular economy principles in EU aquaculture based on the regulatory framework
EU aquaculture produces only a small fraction of the internal demand of aquatic foods, but boosting this activity must be done in compliance with high standards of environmental protection and social benefits, as fostered by the policies on circular economy recently launched by the EU. Nevertheless, the assessment of the environmental sustainability of aquaculture and other food production systems is complex, due to the different tools and approa…
Aquatic foods to nourish nations
A 20-year retrospective review of global aquaculture
Covid-19 impacts and adaptations in Asia and Africa’s aquatic food value chains
The COVID-19 pandemic is a shock affecting all areas of the global food system. We tracked the impacts of COVID-19 and associated policy responses on the availability and price of aquatic foods and production inputs during 2020, using a high frequency longitudinal survey of 768 respondents in Bangladesh, Egypt, India, Myanmar, Nigeria. We found the following: (1) Aquatic food value chains were severely disrupted but most effects on the availabili…
Managing aquaculture in multi-use freshwater bodies
The pressure on scarce freshwater resources from intensifying human activity is rising across the globe. This study presents the case of Jatiluhur—Indonesia’s largest reservoir, where unregulated aquaculture expansion has contributed to environmental degradation and associated conflicts with other water-users. Aiming to identify a strategy to improve the sustainability of cage aquaculture within Jatiluhur reservoir and other freshwater bodies fac…
Intensification, regulation and diversification
Trends in aquatic food consumption were matched against farm production surveys within Hubei province and compared to official production data and statistics. Surveys showed that consumer tastes were changing to a much broader aquatic food menu as their spending power increased. Traditional aquaculture species were becoming less profitable due to reduced profit margins as input costs increased and consumption preferences changed. Consequently, ma…
Linking agroecosystems producing farmed seafood with food security and health status to better address the nutritional challenges in Bangladesh
Objective: Aquaculture is one of the fastest-growing food production sectors in many low-income and food-deficit countries with aquatic ecozones. Yet its specific impact on nutrition and livelihood in local communities, where commercial and/or export-orientated aquaculture activities are developed, is largely unknown. Design: The present narrative and argumentative review aims to provide an overview of our current understanding of the connections…
Reframing the sustainable seafood narrative
Greedy or needy? Land use and climate impacts of food in 2050 under different livestock futures
Both supply and demand side changes are necessary to achieve a sustainable food system. However, the weight accorded to these depends on one’s view of what the priority goals are for the food system and the extent to which production systems versus consumption patterns are open to change. Some stakeholders see the problem as one of ‘not enough food’ and focus on the need to sustainably increase supply, while others consider the resource demanding…
Contribution of Fisheries and Aquaculture to Food Security and Poverty Reduction
Does Size Matter? Reassessing the Relationship between Aquaculture and Poverty in Bangladesh
Aquaculture has long been promoted by development institutions in Bangladesh on the understanding that it can alleviate poverty. Most of this attention has focused on forms of the activity commonly referred to as ‘small-scale’. This article draws on concepts from the literature on agricultural growth and elaborates a typology of aquaculture based on relations of production which suggests that, in Bangladesh, quasi-capitalist forms of aquaculture …

Is Responsible Aquaculture Sustainable Aquaculture? WWF and the Eco-Certification of Tilapia
Public awareness of possible environmental impacts of seafood consumption is growing. The seafood industry and environmental pressure groups have begun to certify fish and other aquatic products produced to sustainable standards. Representations of sustainability advanced by both groups in relation to tilapia converge around limited definitions related primarily to technical parameters. Such an approach does not adequately represent the complexit…
The Development of Aquaculture in Central Thailand
Expansion of aquaculture in Central Thailand since the 1970s is intimately linked to growth in other sectors of the local and national economy, and to participation in global trade. Thailand's agro-industrialization has led to the diversification of agriculture in the Central Region and the co-development of aquaculture. Production of domestic aqua-products is largely positive for consumers, farmers and the environment. By contrast, intensive pro…
