Abstract
Global capture fishery and aquaculture production reached 90.4 and 63.6 million tons, respectively in 2011. For the past 5 years, capture fisheries have been gradually decreasing, while, on the other hand, aquaculture shows an increasing trend. When viewed from human consumption, the demand for aquatic products has been increasing. However, per capita food fish supply remained from 17.4 kg in 2006 to 18.8 kg in 2011. Although there is currently a rising demand for aquatic products, an increase in global capture fisheries remains sluggish. In the present study, the global trend was compared and analyzed with the status of capture fishery and aquaculture production in Japan.
