Why farm fish and seafood?
Fish and seafood are farmed to bridge the gap between the supply of wild catch and the demand for fish and seafood. As a result of the growing world population and a shift in western societies towards healthier eating patterns, there is likely to be a continuing increase in demand for seafood. Over the last 15 years, aquaculture has emerged as an increasingly important contributor helping to supply the global demand for fish and seafood.
