Aquaculture Economics

Aquaculture economics studies the financial aspects of fish and seafood farming. It examines costs like feed, labor, and equipment, as well as profits from selling fish or shellfish. Key factors include market demand, production efficiency, and sustainability practices. As global demand for seafood increases, aquaculture aims to provide a stable supply, balancing economic viability with environmental responsibility. Understanding these economic principles helps farmers, investors, and policymakers make informed decisions to enhance productivity while protecting marine ecosystems.
