    Aquaculture production by Caribbean Community (CARICOM) countries has been around five percent oftotal fish production in recent years. In most Caribbean Small Island Developing States (SIDS) aquaculture production is nearly insignificant, and the import of fishand fisheries products has risen by 35 percent in just overa decade. The growing population in the region, as well asa more demanding tourism industry and the ongoing promotion of healthier lifestyles and diets, has increased the demand for healthy, safe and high quality food, including fish and fisheries and aquaculture products. Public and private sector investments are required if the aquaculture sector is to develop in a viable manner inthe Caribbean. The Governments of Antigua and Barbuda,Barbados, Bahamas and Saint Kitts and Nevis assign high priority to the development of the aquaculture sector,and in view of this, requested that FAO provide technical assistance to develop their aquaculture sectors. The project aimed to contribute to more efficient and inclusive food and agricultural systems in the four target countries, through sustainable development and management of the aquaculture sector, and the development of selected value chains.
