It's a huge opportunity not just because of the volume and the volume of production, but also because the nutritional composition of aquatic foods is phenomenal in terms of micronutrients composition, particularly for children and women in in doing during the age of pregnancies. That is an important component of aquatic foods and that's why people are looking at aquatic foods as part of the solution to the problem of hunger and malnutrition.

So this is what has allowed us to increase aquatic food consumption. In fact, the consumption of aquatic foods has been growing at twice the rate of population growth [in recent decades] so it's [already]making a significant impact into the improvements in nutrition without affecting the ocean [fisheries].”

The first is to accept that aquatic foods are part of the solution to hunger and malnutrition. That's the first we need to accept that this is part of the part of what we want to do. The second is a recognition that transformation is happening even without us doing anything.

In fisheries and aquaculture is extremely important. For example, in fisheries we have technological advancements in the use of sensors. We can now use sensors to to see what fishing boats are doing, where and when, you know, in real time. We can have sensors that monitor how fishing gear operates to make sure that they do not catch unwanted species, to protect vulnerable species and habitats, that through sensors can be done. In aquaculture, we can have sensors to, for example, understand whether a pond has received enough feed, whether there's too much feed that is wasted. You can detect that from sensors. You can detect the quality of the water. You can even detect if a disease is emerging.

Script On 8 June World Oceans Day will be celebrated worldwide, serving as a poignant reminder of the immense significance of the ocean in our daily lives.

The importance of a healthy ocean cannot be overstated. They are home to 80 percent of the animal biomass, serving as a vital source of sustenance, nutrition and livelihoods for millions of people worldwide. 

However, in light of the mounting challenges of climate change, pollution and the continuous growth of the world’s population, the ocean assumes an even more critical role in helping secure our future food supply, explained Manuel Barange, Director of the Fisheries and Aquaculture Division at the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO).

SOUNDBITE (English) Manuel Barange, Director of the Fisheries and Aquaculture Division at the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, “ There is not a single problem that we have nowadays, whether it is climate change, whether it is food security, whether it is poverty that can be solved without considering the oceans as part of the solution.”

Currently, over 800 millions of people are affected by hunger around the world. Aquatic foods with their high nutritional value emerge as a promising solution to address not only hunger but also malnutrition.

SOUNDBITE (English) Manuel Barange, Director of the Fisheries Aquaculture Division at the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, “Aquatic foods are a huge opportunity. It's a huge opportunity not just because of the volume, the volume of production, but also because the nutritional composition of aquatic foods is phenomenal, in terms of micronutrients composition particularly for children and women during the age of pregnancy. That is an important component of aquatic foods and that's why people are looking at aquatic foods as part of the solution to the problem of hunger and malnutrition.”

The world’s consumption of aquatic food has increased significantly in recent years, to over 20kg per capita per year and will continue to rise. 

Aquaculture has great potential to feed and nourish the world’s growing population. In 2021, the global production of farmed aquatic animals reached a record of 91 million tonnes, contributing to nearly half of the world’s total fisheries and aquaculture production.

When considering algae as well, the combined aquaculture production is of 126 million tonnes, accounting for 57% of the global total production.

SOUNDBITE (English) Manuel Barange, Director of the Fisheries and Aquaculture Division at the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, “Aquaculture has been the fastest growing food production system for the last five decades, from virtually zero, three or four decades ago, to now virtually the same production as capture fisheries. So, this is what has allowed us to increase aquatic food consumption. In fact, the consumption of aquatic foods has been growing at twice the rate of population growth [in recent decades]. So it's [already] making a significant impact to the improvement in nutrition without affecting the ocean [fisheries].”

FAO is committed to Blue Transformation, a visionary strategy that aims to enhance the role of aquatic food systems in feeding the world’s growing population by providing the legal, policy and technical frameworks required to sustain growth and innovation.

SOUNDBITE (English) Manuel Barange, Director of the Fisheries and Aquaculture at the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, “The Blue Transformation Initiative is a vision from FAO that has started with two big principles. The first is to accept that aquatic foods are part of the solution to hunger and malnutrition. That's the first we need to accept that this is part of what we want to do. The second is a recognition that transformation is happening even without us doing anything.”

Much transformation has happened in the sector without directed interventions, and more can be achieved if we manage to direct that transformation more towards the goals of the Agenda 2030.

Blue Transformation proposes a series of actions designed to support resilience in aquatic food systems and ensure fisheries and aquaculture grow sustainably while leaving no one behind, especially those communities that depend on the sector. Climate- and environment-friendly policies and practices, as well as technological innovations, are critical building blocks for Blue Transformation.

SOUNDBITE (English) Manuel Barange, Director of the Fisheries and Aquaculture Division at the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, “Technology is absolutely essential in all aspects of food production. Of course, in fisheries and aquaculture [it] is extremely important. For example, in fisheries we have technological advancements in the use of sensors.
