| Sumario : In recent years fish supplies have expanded rapidly. As reported in the new edition of The State of World Fisheries and Aquaculture, in 1994 they reached 109.6 million tonnes, and preliminary figures for 1995 indicated a new peak of total production at 112.3 million tonnes. The increase is mainly a result of continued rapid growth in aquaculture production, particularly in China, and rapid expansion of highly fluctuating harvestable stocks of pelagic species off the west coast of South America. Both fishmeal production and fish supplies for human consumption have reached record levels.
In 1995, landings by capture fisheries reached about 91 million tonnes. Ten countries accounted for about 70 percent of the volume. Aggregate production in the low-income food-deficit countries (LIFDCs) continued the pattern of high growth that has characterized recent years, showing an average annual rate of increase of 6.9 percent during the period 1988 to 1994. In 1994, LIFDCs accounted for 35 percent of total production, compared with 26 percent in 1988.
Provisional production figures for mariculture and inland aquaculture show an estimated increase from 18.6 million tonnes in 1994 to 21.3 million tonnes in 1995, more than offsetting a very small (i.e. 0.02 million tonne) decline in the harvest from marine and inland capture fisheries during the same period.
The rapid growth in aquaculture production is the result of an increased predominance of Asian aquaculture and of carp species. Five Asian countries (China, India, Japan, the Republic of Korea and the Philippines) accounted for 80 percent of the volume of aquaculture produce. In 1994 carps accounted for almost half of the total volume of cultured aquatic products (aquatic plants excluded). Even though cultured fish and shellfish contribute significantly to total national fishery production, aquaculture in most countries is dominated by a few species.
