Aquaculture includes different kinds of activities such as fish farming, oyster farming and shrimp farming among others. Aquaculture can be practiced in brackish water, freshwater and marine water depending on the culture environment where diverse range of species such as fishes, mollusks and crustaceans are farmed. The aquaculture industry accounted for 50% of world's fish food in 2012. Increasing consumer awareness regarding health benefits offered by consumption of fish and fish products is expected to be one of the primary factors driving aquaculture production. In addition, reduction in global catch of fishes is another key parameter which is expected to boost aquaculture production within the next few years.
However, the aquaculture market is vulnerable to adverse climatic conditions which led to outbreak of several diseases hampering the production. Increasing adoption of poly-culture systems such as rice and fish farming is expected to open new opportunities for the growth of the market by providing additional food and income by diversifying farm activities. Presently, the market share of aquaculture in the world fisheries industry is less than the captured fish market. According to Organization of Economic Co-operation Development (OECD), the capture fisheries' output is expected to rise by 5% by 2022 whereas aquaculture is expected to increase by 35%. The aquaculture market is expected to surpass capture fisheries market as the main source for human consumption by the end of 2015.
