What To Expect in Aquaculture in 2024
Industry responses to our annual seafood production survey, conducted together with the Global Seafood Alliance (GSA), suggest a more optimistic outlook for 2024. Respondents expect global shrimp production to recover but stay below its 10-year historical average. Global salmon production is also expected to grow after two years of flat or declining output. Despite revived optimism, industry respondents remain concerned that the weak global economy will inhibit a price recovery.
This article presents forecasts for aquaculture production of selected species for 2024. These are based on the views of industry participants gathered in Rabobank’s annual aquaculture survey about finfish and shrimp production, undertaken in cooperation with the Global Seafood Alliance.
