2 Aquaculture s contribution to global feed/food chain Of the different global food production systems, AQUACULTURE, the farming of aquatic animals and plants, has been fastest growing food sector for over 25 years, and is widely perceived as an important weapon in the global fight against hunger & malnutrition, particularly within developing countries, including Africa

18 Global importance of aquatic foods in human nutrition and global food supply

19 Aquatic food products represent one of the world s most nutritious & healthy food sources According to the FAO/WHO (2011) Joint Expert Consultation on the risks & benefits of fish consumption, there is convincing evidence that: Fish consumption reduces the risk of death from coronary heart disease & consumption by women reduces the risk of suboptimal neurodevelopment in their offspring;

20 According to FAO/WHO (2011) there is also emerging, possible or probable evidence, that fish consumption may reduce the risk of multiple other adverse health outcomes, including ischaemic stroke, non-fatal coronary heart disease events, congestive heart failure, atrial fibrillation, cognitive decline, depression, anxiety and inflammatory diseases.

21 Aquaculture s 2011 highlights and contribution to the global eporte feed and food chain Fastest growing food sector for the past 25 years with APR of 8.2% Total production 83.7 million tonnes, valued at US $ billion Over 157 aquatic plant & animal species farmed in 2011 Currently ranked 4 th globally in terms of farmed meat production Ranked 2 nd in China after farmed pig meat production Currently represent only 3-4% global animal feed production Highest reported feed efficiency for any farmed animal species Feed sector is the largest global consumer of fishmeal and fish oil Best source of essential nutrients in terms of human nutrition Represent important nutrient source in human nutrition in Asia

22 Aquaculture: key areas for further growth & opportunity Continued rapid growth and development of the aquaculture sector in Africa and Americas, as shown by the rapid growth of the sector in Egypt and Brazil over the past 15 years Increased emphasis in Africa on the culture of species feeding low on the aquatic food chain and not requiring external nutrient inputs, such as the culture of farmed aquatic plants and filter feeding shellfish species Increased production of lower-cost herbivorous/omnivorous freshwater fish species for domestic home consumption, and the promotion of farmed aquatic products in human nutrition and the food security of the poor and needy

23 Key hurdles to future aquaculture development Environmental: aquaculture needs to be part of the solution and not part of the problem: in contrast to agricultural farming practices which are usually conducted on private land, aquatic farming activities are usually conducted in public water bodies (rivers, lakes, coastal area) and so must be conducted reponsibly (we share this resource with many other users) Feed: aquaculture feed sector needs to reduce its dependence upon the use of potentially food grade marine fishery resources such as small pelagics, fishmeal and fish oil, and imports Social: aquaculture activities must not adversely affect the livelihood of the poor, and should produce affordable foods Importance of food safety and development of feed/farm GMPs

24 Sustainability challenges 71% of our planet is covered with water, and our oceans, lakes and rivers still represent one of our least understood ecosystems Increased use of locally available feed-grade ingredient sources as inputs for the production of aquatic food products, including the increased use and recycling of terrestrial animal by-product meals and oils, single cell proteins, and agricultural by-product meals not suitable for direct human consumption within aquaculture feeds Increased development and use of microbial floc-based aquaculture production systems and integrated multi-trophic culture systems so as to maximize nutrient utilization, water use, and minimize environmental impact Need for CASA Project Centre for African Studies in Aquaculture

25 Centre for African Studies in Sustainable Aquaculture & Fisheries Management <CASA >< International cooperation platform for improving food security and poverty alleviation in Africa through the development of sustainable and responsible aquaculture and fisheries management practices Major aquaculture platform activities Malnutrition & food security impacts Poverty alleviation & income generation impacts Farming systems & sustainable development Research & technology development Training, education & outreach Increased food production through fisheries & aquaculture
