According to the latest report by IMARC Group, titled “Vietnam Aquaculture Market: Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2018-2023”, the Vietnam aquaculture market reached a production volume of 3.8 Million Tons in 2017. Aquaculture, also known as aquafarming, refers to the breeding, raising, and harvesting of fish, shellfish, and aquatic plants and other organisms. Vietnam is the third largest producer of aquaculture products due to its abundant natural aquatic resources, tropical climate, and the diversity of river and canal systems. Aquaculture is a vital source of nutritious, safe and sustainable seafood for the Vietnamese people. The aquaculture sector in the country is currently dominated by catfish and shrimp, with the black tiger shrimp being one of the most popular species among the aquaculturists. In recent years, the Pacific white leg shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) has also been introduced in Southern Vietnam which has provided a positive thrust to the aquaculture market.
Market Trends:
Aquaculture has gained momentum in Vietnam as fish sauce, fish and other aquatic animals, such as squid and eel, are central to the Vietnamese cuisine. The country has also adopted the production of exportable species at an increasing level to diversify its farming activities. Along with this, the Ministry of Fisheries is conducting research and development activities to improve the sustainability of the aquaculture industry in Vietnam. Moreover, the Vietnamese Government is supporting the aquaculture sector by implementing efficient policies, improving legal frameworks, building fishing ports, integrating and modernizing fishing logistics and developing offshore fishing facilities. As a result of these factors, the market is further expected to reach a production volume of 5 Million Tons by 2023, exhibiting a CAGR of around 4% during 2018-2023.
