According to a new study conducted by Research Dive, the global aquaculture market forecast will surpass $310,291.7 million by 2027, at a CAGR of 3.9%, increasing from $274,671.2 million in 2019. The global market is dominated by Asia-Pacific region and it accounted for $177,520.0 million in 2019. Europe market will experience a notable growth and is estimated to generate a revenue of $30,501.7 million till 2027.
COVID-19 impact on Global Aquaculture Market:
Pre COVID-19, the global aquaculture market was estimated to produce $373,560.7 million by the end of 2027, at a 4.0% CAGR during the forecast years. This growth is due to rising fish production to meet consumer demand. However, the novel coronavirus has had a negative impact on the global aquaculture market growth in 2020 and is expected to generate a revenue of $310,291.7 million by 2027, at a rate of 3.9% CAGR. Aqua products sales and consumption majorly depend on international trade and supply chains. These supply chains are limited by the pandemic of COVID-19 due to closures and restrictions of global industry, whereas aqua products supply chains were negatively affected by the closing of the several food services sectors.
During this emergency period, leading market players are following several strategies such as collaboration and acquisitions to increase their market share in the overall market. In recent times, Mowi collaborated with Tidal to develop the most efficient under water sensing technologies to monitor real time growth of salmon in their aqua farms. This aspect is predicted to propel the market growth during the pandemic time.
Aquaculture Market Analysis:
Aquaculture is also called as aqua-farming and it denotes that rearing, breeding and harvesting of aquatic creatures including plants, algae and animals in a managed, controlled and semi-controlled environments for various commercial, recreational and public purpose. In addition, the farming of aquatic organisms could take place in many types of water environments and conditions including rivers, seas, lakes, oceans and man-made aquatic farms.
Increasing fish consumption and rising inland aqua farms are the major driving factors for the growth of the global aquaculture market
Aquaculture Market Drivers: Increasing fish consumption globally due to rising awareness about benefits of fish consumption is significantly driving the growth of the market in the forecast time. Fish contains important nutrients and vitamins and is a high source of omega-3 fatty acids; these constituents have several health advantages such as minimizing heart strokes, preventing depression, preventing asthma in children, improving brain health and others. These factors are estimated to drive the demand for aquatic animal products, which will fuel the market growth in the expected time. In addition, continuous decline in demand for livestock is having considerable impact on the aqua farming due to aquatic animals containing low amount of fats, this aspect will impel the market growth in the forecast years.

Government regulations on fish catching is a major restraint for the growth of the aquaculture market
The strict government regulation on trapping of aquatic animals due to over fishing impacting the ecosystem of marine environments is predicted to be a restraint for the aquaculture market growth in the forecast years. Also, fish may consume dangerous chemicals, especially mercury, discharged in water bodies by industries; if a person consumes such a fish it affects the nervous system of the person. This factor may have considerable impact on fish consumption, which is predicted to limit the market growth.
Technical advancements in the aquatic animals farming is a significant opportunity for the global aquaculture market growth
Farmers are continuously increasing productivity of several commercial species such as trout, salmon and carps through intensification techniques to increase the productivity. This factor is expected to create huge growth opportunities in the aquaculture market in the coming years. These intensification techniques will play a significant role in aquatic animals monitoring, feed management and maintenance of nutritional balance in aquatic animals without harming the environment.

Aquaculture, also called as aqua-farming is the cultivation of fishes, crustaceans, mollusks, and other aquatic organisms under controlled conditions. It involves breeding, rearing, and harvesting of different fish species in different types of water atmospheres. Aqua-farming is contributory in regenerating & restoring rare fish species and creating healthier marine habitats.
The most common form of aquaculture is fish farming. Fishes are raised in ponds, tanks, and ocean enclosures and are mainly used for food consumption. Salmon, tuna, big eye, carp, tilapia, cod, and catfish are often raised by fish farms.
COVID-19 Impact on the Global Industry
The global aquaculture market is projected to witness a downfall in the growth rate due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The supply chains and international trade are limited in the pandemic due to closures & restrictions by global industry. As the aqua products consumption & sales mainly depend on supply chains & international trade, the global market is estimated to get affected in a negative way.
However, the key players of the global industry are implementing various business growth tactics to increase their market share in the COVID-19 pandemic. For instance, in March 2020, a Norwegian seafood company, Mowi collaborated with Google parent company, Alphabet’s Tidal to develop efficient underwater technologies for monitoring real-time growth of salmon in their aqua farms. The advanced software analysis platform is developed by Tidal with a focus on ocean health and sustainability. The underwater sensing technology gathers real-time intelligence on salmon growth, feeding control, weight distribution, and performs sea lice counting automatically.
Key Developments in the Global Market
The major industry players are implementing several growth strategies such as technological advancements, mergers & acquisitions, and novel product launches to obtain a strong position in the overall market, which is ultimately supporting the aquaculture market to grow at a significant pace.
For instance, in November 2016, Pentair Aquatic Ecosystems completed the acquisition of Vaki Aquaculture Systems Limited in order to enhance its product portfolio by broadening its range of aquaculture systems, products, and services in the growing market space.
In May 2018, AKVA Group launched a feed conveyor concept namely, ‘Flexible Feeding,’ which allow the farmers to send feed from any feed silo to any cage without any manual efforts. The aquaculture system makes it easier to use various feed sizes and types, and enables easy expansion of current feed systems with more feed lines.
In November 2018, a salmon farming company, Pure Salmon announced to launch re-circulating aquaculture system (RAS) facility in Japan with an aim to release the environmental impact on oceans across the globe caused by the antibiotics and chemicals.
Forecast Analysis of Aquaculture Market
Global aquaculture market is anticipated to observe a strong growth over the forecast period due to continuously surging productivity of numerous commercial species such as salmon, trout, and carps through intensification techniques. The continuous technological advancements in the aquatic animals farming is predicted to play a vital role in creating massive growth opportunities in the global market. However, strict government regulations regarding fish catching is a major factor expected to hinder the market growth in the near future.
A surge in the consumption of fish across the globe owing to the benefits it provides is a major factor estimated to boost the growth of the global aquaculture market by 2027. Research Dive in its published report anticipates that the aquaculture market will grow at a CAGR of 3.9% during the forecast period. The Asia Pacific region is projected to dominate the global aquaculture market throughout the forecast period owing to the presence of advanced aqua farming techniques and the existence of highest fish consumption countries in the region. The key players functioning in the global industry include P/F Bakkafrost, Mowi, NISSUI, Stolt-Nielsen, Maruha Nichiro Corporation, Leroy, SELONDA SA, Thai Union Group PCL, TASSAL GROUP, and Cargill, Inc.
