With differences among regions and countries, these transformations include: the stabilization of total capture fisheries production at 90-95 million tonnes since mid-1990s, the rapid increase in global aquaculture production, reaching about 74 million tonnes in 2014 and outpacing all other food-producing systems, the globalization of the industry, with substantial growth in world trade in fish and fisheries products, particularly in value terms, and the rising demand for fish and fishery products. However, many factors might affect the prospects for this sector. These include: land and water and associated conflicts, feed, seed14 supply and genetic resources, environmental integrity and disease problems, development and adoption of new and improved farming technologies, market, trade and food safety, climate change, investment capital impediments, and problems that can originate from unguided and unmonitored aquaculture practices.
