1 The Future of Aquaculture and Its Role in the Global Food System James L. Anderson Director, for Sustainable Food Systems Professor, Food and Resource Economics University of Florida Aquaculture 2016 Opening Plenary Feb 23, 2016 Las Vegas, Nevada

2 The Problem Conversation heard in reaction to President Zoellick s interest in the World Bank investing in productive oceans Place: Elevator between 5 th and 1 st floors, World Bank, Washington DC Time: February 2011 Why would the Bank invest in oceans. It doesn t make sense. All the fisheries are already depleted What about aquaculture? Well, it s not sustainable. That sums up the problem

3 9 Billion by Billions % More Food Needed (Traditional Agriculture Only) Alexandratos, N. and J. Bruinsma World agriculture towards 2030/2050: the 2012 revision. ESA Working paper No Rome, FAO Source: NIC Report (2013); FAOSTAT; U.S. Census Bureau

4 Food Production Problem? % increase in per capita food supply since 1961 Food Supply kcal/capita/day US Recommended Daily Allotment Global Nutrition in Undernourished 799 kcal/capita/day 1500 food production is growing faster than population Obese, 600 Overweight, Adequately Nourished, 5166 Food Supply kcal/capita/day Source: FAOSTAT, WHO

5 Demand for Fish and Meat USD/Capita WEALTH Will it Continue to Grow?

6 Aquaculture is the Fastest Growing Food Sector Average annual growth rate (percent), Fish Capture fisheries Aquaculture Beef Pork Poultry Cereals Source: FAOSTAT, FishStat

9 Have Marine Capture Fisheries Reached Their Maximum Potential? WORLD MARINE CAPTURE HARVEST in 2013: 81 MT Freshwater Capture (12 MMT in 2013) Maximum Additional Harvest from Sustainable Marine Capture Fisheries Sunken Billions Revisited (World Bank/Arnason) & EDF Study (Costello etal): Max Sustainable Marine Harvest World at MSY: Max Incl. Freshwater Capture (12 MMT in 2013) MMT (20% +/- ) MMT This Requires Major Reforms in Fisheries around the World Especially in Developing Countries DIFFICULT NOTE: Enhancement aquaculture could be used as a lever to encourage change Sources: Sunken Billions Revisited (Forthcoming); Potential for Global Fish Recovery (Forthcoming) ( model- report- summary.pdf) Fish to 2030 (2013); WRI (2015)

10 Future Production Growth must Come from Aquaculture Projection (Fish to 2030) Best Case: Freshwater + Global Marine Fisheries at MSY MMT Freshwater and Marine Capture Fisheries Wild Fish Farmed Fish Sources: FAO FishStat (2013); Fish to 2030 (2013) Sunken Billions Revisited (Forthcoming); Potential for Global Fish Recovery (Forthcoming)

12 Fish to (Model Projection) S. Msangi, IFPRI M. Kobayashi, World Bank M. Batka, IFPRI S. Vannuccini, FAO M. Dey, Univ. of Arkansas J. L. Anderson, Univ. of Florida * Aquaculture : approx. 50% of total harvest * Aquaculture : approx. 62% of fish for direct human consumption * Aquaculture growth : 62% in 20 years between * Total fish supply (capture + aquaculture) growth : 24% in 20 years between

13 Aquaculture Supply Growth (1000 MT) Shrimp Crustaceans Mollusks Salmon Tilapia Pangasius/catfish Carp Other Carp Other freshwater Demersal Mullet Other marine More than 90% increase % increase projection 2020 projection data - 5,000 10,000 15,000 20,000 25,000

14 Aquaculture Supply Growth: Regions * More than 100% increase between * India * Latin America and Caribbean * Southeast Asia * % increase between * South Asia (excl. India) * Middle East and North Africa * Sub- Saharan Africa * Less than 50% increase between * Everywhere else

15 Consumption Growth: Regions * More than 50% increase from 2010 to 2030 * South Asia (excl. India) * 30-50% increase from 2010 to 2030 * India 60 * Southeast Asia 50 * North America 40 * Middle East and North Africa 30 * China 20 * Sub- Saharan Africa 10 * (per capita down about 20%) 0 * Decline from 2010 to 2030 * Japan ECA N. Am. LAC EAP CHINA JAPAN SE ASIA SAR INDIA MNA AFR

16 Key Conclusions from 2030 Study Expectations for 2030: 1. Aquaculture will produce about 2/3 of food fish 2. China will consume nearly 40% of seafood 3. Production of tilapia, shrimp, will nearly double from 2010 to Largest tonnage gains will be in mollusks, carps 5. Aquaculture will grow fastest in India, Latin America, and Southeast Asia

17 With all this growth what is happening in the US market?

48 Moving Forward * Manage Disease Biggest risk * Improve feeds * Reduce waste and improve efficiency * Eliminate fraud and lack of transparency Trust is essential * Challenge the bureaucracy * Improve the relationship with environmental community and traditional fisheries * Learn more about China: #1 importer & #1 exporter * Algae

49 Reframing the Message * Get the Story Right Aquaculture is the future * Get credible facts * Focus on production efficiency of resource use compared to other animal protein * Demand responsible production * Trust, transparency, and safety are essential * Nutrition that tastes good and good for the planet * Work with the environmental community, chefs and celebrities * Work with the fishing industry to develop markets

50 Conclusion * Aquaculture will continue to grow because fisheries cannot meet market demands * Aquaculture will dominate and lead the seafood industry * Low cost and reliable producers will usually win in a free trade world
