Land-based aquaculture, where seafood is artificially grown on land instead of in the sea, is expanding rapidly throughout Japan and is now commercialized on a large scale. Four major trading companies, including Marubeni, to ship land-based farmed salmon. NTT Group, a Japan's big telco also plans to ship shrimp in March 2025. Land-based aquaculture is accelerating by large companies with technical and financial capabilities, and mass production is beginning to change the seafood supply chain. Currently, salmon is imported from Norway, but the day is not far off when land-based farmed salmon will exceed imports.

As one of the major exporters of fish in the East Asian region, Sabah is well-positioned to meet growing regional demand for fresh and frozen seafood. Seafood consumption in Malaysia is among the highest in Southeast Asia, and aquaculture is increasingly seen as the solution to bridge the gap between supply and demand. Seafood consumption in Malaysia is among the highest in Southeast Asia, and with fisheries capture declining, aquaculture is increasingly seen as the solution for bridging the gap between supply and demand. In support of federal government initiatives to increase aquaculture to 50 percent of total marine production, Sabah offers investors opportunities to tap into the up-and-coming aquaculture industry. “SABAH – Your Next Investment Destination” https://lnkd.in/gCS3yksv Office Number: 088-418 915 Email: invest@sedia.com.my #aquaculture #investinaquaculture #fisheries #SEDIAIP #SEDIAInvestmentPromotion #InvestInSabah

#northerntransatlanticcollaboration “Up to 90 percent of the seafood consumed in the US is imported, and half of that is farmed. The development of open ocean aquaculture can help meet the growing demand for homegrown seafood and add stability to the domestic seafood supply chain, but the US currently lacks a comprehensive federal regulatory framework with the requisite strong standards needed for sustainable, equitable, and profitable open ocean aquaculture” Great opportunity for collaborations and exchange of know how.

🔥📢FEAP The Federation of European Aquaculture Producers alerts on an urgent matter challenging European aquaculture, a worrying trend which is undermining the sector potential to unfold its sustainable and transformative activity for European food security. 📜European aquaculture is suffocating under an oppressive legal framework, making it lose the race to imports from countries lacking our trusted, necessary but very demanding EU standards of production. 🛠️To address this situation and allow the sector to become a real champion in sustainable, profitable, and resilient food production, FEAP calls for simplification, realism, science-based governance, besides the launching of a coherent EU food production policy. 💡Read our statement below. Share it widely. It contains proposals and list of concrete actions, which we want to disseminate largely to EU and Member state policy makers. #ThankYou #EUaquaculture #WearetheFuture APROMAR Recirkfisk PO Associazione Piscicoltori Italiani Hellenic Aquaculture Producers Organization aquacultores.pt - Associação Portuguesa de Aquacultores Comité Interprofessionnel des Produits de l'Aquaculture CIPA Market Advisory Council European Association of fish Producers Organisations (EAPO) Eugen Catalin Platon Szilvia Mihálffy Lara Barazi Geroulanou Javier Ojeda Gonzalez-Posada

We've recently published our Seafood Forecast through the year 2050, a report that aims to untangle the complexities in seafood value chains and provide an objective view of developments to mid-century. This global forecast of the seafood industry covers both marine capture fisheries and marine aquaculture, including value chain components such as feed and global seafood trade. • What will be the role of seafood in global food demand? • How will marine aquaculture develop to meet seafood demand? • What will drive change in seafood trade patterns to 2050? • What will be the main sources of feed for marine aquaculture? If you're at #COP28 on 8 December, please join DNV's Bente Pretlove and Geir Fuglerud at tomorrow's launch event "Blue foods for sustainable food systems" in the Norway Pavilion at 09:00. We'll be exploring how to make blue foods available and accessible to low-income regions while encouraging more seafood consumption in high-income regions and ensuring traceability along the supply chain.

📢 Calling All Seafood Enthusiasts! 📢 We invite you to read an important update from Stronger America Through Seafood (SATS) regarding the future of aquaculture in the United States. 🔗 Read the full article: https://lnkd.in/e-Vr9sQx 📄 Key Highlights: ◽ SATS has sent a letter to the House Natural Resources Committee, signed by over 50 leaders from the seafood industry, environmental organizations, chefs, and academia. ◽ The letter advocates for expanding aquaculture in US federal waters to boost the production of sustainable, healthful, and affordable seafood. ◽ This initiative aims to enhance food security, support wild fisheries, and create quality jobs while maintaining environmental sustainability. 🌊 Why This Matters: With nearly 80% of seafood consumed in the US being imported, expanding domestic aquaculture is essential for securing our nation’s food supply and resilience. Offshore aquaculture holds the potential to improve food security, nutrition, coastal resilience, and job creation. 🚀 Legislation in Focus: The letter supports three key offshore aquaculture bills awaiting Committee action: ◽ HR 4013: The Advancing the Quality and Understanding of American Aquaculture (AQUAA) Act ◽ HR 5944: The Science-based Equitable Aquaculture Food (SEAfood) Act ◽ HR 1461: The Coastal Seaweed Farm Act #Aquaculture #SustainableSeafood #FoodSecurity #StrongerAmerica #EnvironmentalSustainability #SeafoodIndustry #USAquaculture #OffshoreFarming #Legislation #SupportAquaculture
