Fisheries and Aquaculture Department
FAO Aquaculture e-Bulletin

November 2018
Welcome to this November 2018 edition of the FAO Aquaculture e-bulletin covering our most recent news, publications, technical workshops and projects for the period April 2018 to November 2018. We hope that this information can be also useful to you in your own aquaculture work.

This newsletter presents just a selection of what we do and we encourage you to visit our website www.fao.org/fishery/aquaculture<http://www.fao.org/fishery/aquaculture> to find out more or to contact by e-mail the officers of the FAO Fisheries and Aquaculture Department's Aquaculture Branch (FIAA) responsible for the various activities.

[http://www.fao.org/figis/shared/assets/images/newsletter/fish_bullet.jpg] Highlights

  *   Key facts taken from FAO recently published global aquaculture statistics
     *   Global aquaculture production in 2016 was 110.2 million tonnes with the total farm-gate value estimated at USD 243.5 billion.
     *   The total production included 80.0 million tonnes of food fish, 30.1 million tonnes of aquatic algae and 37 900 tonnes of ornamental shells and pearls.
     *   The contribution of aquaculture to the global fish production has reached 46.8 percent in 2016, up from 25.7 percent in 2000.
     *   In 2016, there were 37 countries, homes to close to half of the human population in the world, producing more fish from aquaculture than wild capture.
     *   Of the 80 million tonnes of farmed food fish production in 2016, inland aquaculture contributed 64.2 percent (51.4 million tonnes), while marine and coastal aquaculture counted for 35.8 percent (28.7 million tonnes).
     *   Inland aquaculture is dominated by finfish species (92.5 percent, 47.5 million tonnes), followed distantly by crustacean (5.9 percent, 3.0 million tonnes).
     *   Marine and coastal aquaculture relied heavily on molluscs farming (58.8 percent, 16.9 million tonnes), with finfish (6.6 million tonnes) and crustaceans (4.8 million tonnes) counting for 22.9 percent and 16.8 percent, respectively.
