The brackish water segment is projected to be the fastest-growing segment in the aquaculture market during the forecast period.

The aquaculture market is segmented, on the basis of culture, into freshwater, marine, and brackish water. The brackish water segment is projected to be the fastest-growing segment in the aquaculture market during the forecast period. This is attributed to its high adoption in underdeveloped countries such as those in Africa. Further, brackish water aquafarming involves culturing of fin and shell fishes that are found in the coastal environment; it has the capacity to supply required food fish on a regular basis, thereby contributing to food security through supplemented feeding and aquafarming methods.

The aquatic animals segment is projected to grow at a higher rate during the forecast period.

The aquatic animals segment is further divided into crustaceans, mollusks, finfishes, and others. The growing demand for protein-rich food in developing countries such as India, Bangladesh, Indonesia, and Vietnam is driving the demand for aquatic animals. Additionally, the government support for aquafarming, specifically in Asia Pacific and Africa, is growing to mitigate poverty levels, as aquaculture is an important source of employment in the coastal regions of these countries; this has prompted several aquaproduct manufacturers to invest in this segment in these two regions.

The equipment segment is projected to account for the largest market share in the aquaculture market during the forecast period.

The aquaculture market is segmented, on the basis of rearing product type, into equipment, chemicals, fertilizers, and pharmaceuticals. The equipment segment is projected to be a leading segment in the aquaculture market. This is attributed to the rising adoption of advanced feeding systems to meet the rising demand for the inclusion of nutrients at an optimum level in the diets of aquatic animals. Furthermore, the growth in demand for seafood and decline in the volume of captured fishes is prompting the farmers to use equipment for higher production.

Asia Pacific is projected to be the fastest-growing region in the aquaculture market during the forecast period.

Asia Pacific is projected to be the fastest-growing region in the aquaculture market during the forecast period due to the rapid development of aquaculture in most of the countries in the region in terms of improving the food supply. The demand for aquaculture products is rising, as the farmers in this region are investing in new technologies and innovations in order to meet the increasing food supply and nutrient food. The consumption of fish and shrimp is witnessing an upward trend in the region, which aids the aquafarming industry.
