Fish and food security: securing blue growth of aquacultureAsia Conference on Oceans, Food Security and Blue Growth (ACOFB 2013). 18-21 June 2013, Bali, Indonesia
Michael Phillips and Malcolm Beveridge
Outline
• Fish and food security• “Blue growth” in aquaculture• Future actions
Wealth and population growth are major drivers for animal source food consumption, including fish
Fish demand is growing.. along with other animal sources foods

•Baseline scenario
•Technological advances in aquaculture
•Ecological collapse of fisheries
• Global consumption remains at1996 levels (15.6 kg/y)
• Global consumption rises to 22.5 kg/y
Growing fisheries (0.7% per annum)

Future need
Small-scale, wild, fisheries will remain important for the poor, food and nutrition

Our planetary boundaries
Putting blue growth of aquaculture into practice
“Blue Frontiers” interventions• Innovation• Regulations and policy• Technologies and management• Monitoring and compliance• Supply, demand and markets
source: Hall et al. 2011
(1) Innovations
• Feeds• Genetics• Systems• Extension• Markets• Mobile tech
(2) Regulations and policy
• International standards• New regulations and policy• Implementation
(3) Lower impact technology
Significant scope for improvement in environmental performance
.. within species groups
… and between species groups
(4) Monitoring and compliance
source: Cai (2011)
(5) Better understand supply and demand scenarios
(6) “Blue” Investments• US$50-70 billion in infrastructure• Clear need for private partnerships
Messages
• Future food and nutrition security requires both aquaculture and fisheries
• Aquaculture can be an efficient animal source food producer
• Lower impact aquaculture pathways necessary
• Change is possible but the challenge is scale
• Inclusive partnerships
