The DNV Marine Aquaculture Forecast report provides projections for the marine aquaculture industry through 2050, examining trends in production, demand, and technology. It forecasts a substantial increase in marine aquaculture production to meet rising global food demand, driven by population growth and changing dietary preferences. The report anticipates shifts in production technologies, with increased adoption of offshore and onshore farming methods, particularly for high-value finfish species. It also addresses sustainability challenges related to feed, space utilization, and biodiversity impacts. The study emphasizes the importance of transparency, traceability, and innovation for the sustainable growth of the marine aquaculture sector. Regional differences in production and consumption patterns are highlighted, with Asia remaining a dominant player.
