Fish as percentage of total animal protein intake
A complete nutrient package
• Major source of animal proteins and micronutrients for many coastal populations
• Unique source of poly‐unsaturated fatty acids (DHA, EPA) for optimal brain development and the prevention of coronary heart disease
• Unique & complete source of micronutrients (calcium, iodine, zinc, iron, selenium,...)
• Source of vitamins (A, D, B group)generally scarce in rural diets
Fish: Information
Examples of the importance of micronutrients
Micronutrient deficiency
Level of micronutrient in 100 g edible part
Recommended daily intake for
children:250 million preschoolchildren are vitamin A deficient
Small sized fish eaten whole, good source; > 2 500 µg RAE in 100 g Mola
(Amblypharyngodon mola)500 µg RAE
54 countries are still iodine-deficient
Seafood nearly the only natural food source of iodine;
250 µg iodine in 100 g Cod (Gadhus morhua)120 µg
Iron deficiency affects about 2 billion people
Small sized fish eaten whole, good source; 45 mg iron in 100 g Chanwa pileng (Esomus
longimanus)8.9 mg
800 000 child deathsper year are attributable to zinc deficiency
Small sized fish eaten whole, good source; 20 mg zinc in 100 g
Chanwa pileng (Esomus longimanus)3.7 mg

Risks• Increased risks of diseases and of international pathogen transfer
• Increased competition for water, land and oceans
• Environment pollution from nutrient dispersion, genetic interactions and biodiversity impacts
• Feed availability and price• Carbon footprints and sustainability • Climate change

Examples of FAO’s work to tackle the challenges
• Normative work• Technical assistance• Global Blue Growth Initiative (GAAP)
FAO SubCommittee on Aquaculture(3rd Session. New Delhi, India, 2006)
• Expressed concern over the emergence of a wide range of certification schemes and their cost/benefit value
• recognized the need for globally accepted norms for aquaculture production to serve:1. as a basis for improved harmonization and 2. to facilitate mutual recognition and equivalence of such
certification schemes; • Requested FAO to:
1. convene Expert Workshop (s) and 2. to play a lead role in facilitating the development of
guidelines for certification in aquaculture
