🇲🇬Trends in Madagascar's Aquaculture Sector Aquaculture production in Madagascar has shown steady growth, increasing from 7,980 tonnes in 2000 to 16,396 tonnes in 2021🐟🐠🦐 Although the annual growth rate of 3.49% was lower than sub-regional, regional, and global averages, it represents a significant development in the industry🐟🐠🦐 Inland aquaculture's contribution to Madagascar's overall production has declined over the years, from 31.1% in 2000 to 8.1% in 2021. This contrasts with the higher shares seen in Eastern Africa (73.8%) and globally (44.7%)🐠🦐🐟 Seaweed dominated Madagascar's aquaculture production quantity in 2021, accounting for 71.1%. However, its share in production value was only 5%. In contrast, giant tiger prawn, while comprising 20.6% of the production quantity, contributed significantly more to the production value at 79.1%🐟🐠🦐 #aquaculture #madagascar #industrytrends
