    Introduction: in the past 20 years, 3gq has become the fastest-growing production system in the world At present, aquaculture includes 123 kinds of fish, 39 kinds of molluscs, 26 kinds of shellfish and 14 kinds of migratory animals The production mainly depends on limited natural resources, which is in sharp contrast with the production of animal husbandry However, as the world's major food production system in the new century, relevant measures must be formulated to quickly approach the intersection of development The development trend of 3gq production since 1984, the aquaculture industry has grown at an average annual rate of 11% According to the latest data reported by FAO, the total output of aquatic products in 1998 reached 39.4 million tons, worth 52.05 billion US dollars Fish production accounts for half of the total aquatic production (200 million tons or 50.8%), and shrimp ranks the second in the aquatic species, with a value of 6.08 billion US dollars In the past 10 years, the growth of main special varieties has been rapid, and the growth rate from 1984 to 1998 has doubled Since 1997, the annual growth rate of fishery production has been 12.3%, and that of shellfish production has been 13.9% 3gq by region, in 1998, Asia's aquatic production accounted for 90.8% (35.81 million T) of the global total, and China's mainland occupied the first place, with a production of 27.1 million T, accounting for 68.7% of the global total In 1998, Asia accounted for 89.1% of the world's aquatic products, Europe for 4.97% (1.96 million T), followed by South America for 1.7% (670000 T) Inland freshwater fish has become the main part of fish production (17.4 million T, accounting for 86.6% of the total production), and the main species is gill fish In 1998, the total output of 23 kinds of carp reached 14.14 million tons From 1984 to 1998, the annual growth rate was 13.3% The main varieties were white chain (3.31 million tons), grass carp (2.89 million tons), common silver carp (2.46 million tons), tilapia (970000 tons) and catfish (463000 tons) The total output of salmon reached 1.29 million tons From 1984 to 1998, the annual growth rate was 13.6% The main varieties were Atlantic salmon In the production of sea fish, the total output of yellow croaker is 150000 T, that of Red Sea snapper is 8000 T, that of red head snapper is 54000 T, and that of European bass is 30000 t In 1998, 3gq produced a total of 1113000 tons of shrimps, including 11 varieties of shrimps The annual growth rate of vannamei prawn was 18.5% in 1984-1998, 8.8% in 1997-1998, 19.1 million tons in 1998, 143000 tons in China, 14.4% and 13.0% in 1997-1998, respectively, and 16.7% and 37.8% in China 3gq Asia aquatic feed 3gq Asia is the world's largest aquaculture and aquatic feed production region It is different from the variety of aquatic feed, processing form and finished product (extrusion, granulation, powder and farm made fresh feed), and the actual feed output data is difficult to change The total amount of aquatic feed in Asia increased from 14.17 million tons in 1997 to 18.07 million tons in 1999, with an annual growth rate of 13%, excluding China's production The total output of aquatic feed was 2.17 million tons in 1997, 2.01 million tons in 1998 and 2.08 million tons in 1999, a decrease of 4% Before 1997, the annual growth of aquatic feed was 10% - 10%, and in the same period, the annual growth of Chinese aquatic feed market was 20% - 30% According to the variety carp feed accounts for about 65% of the total output, and shrimp feed becomes the second largest demand In 1999, the total output was 758000 t 3gq European aquatic feed 3gq European fishery market is huge, with a growth rate of about 10%, mainly depending on the country and variety Aquatic feed is mainly used for Atlantic salmon, followed by color salmon and sea bass The market of other species such as eel and turbot is relatively small, accounting for 2% of the feed market together with other small species The gill feed is not included in the scope Because it is almost usually raised in ponds without industrial feed, the growth of sea fish species such as sea bream and sea bass is the fastest, but lower than salmon However, in Europe, the fish feed trade is often borderless The main feed areas include Norway, the Mediterranean, the UK and Ireland Total feed requirement 1.385 million tons The main problems that will become the industry in the next few years are: the safety of feed and food, i.e tracking ability, quality identification, allowable limits of cross contamination, drug residues, packaging reuse, feed and plant impact on the environment The aquatic feed industry must follow the same pattern as the food industry (most of which are controlled by supermarkets), according to the current formula feed industry, European aquatic feed producers have to continuously develop diets that are not dominated by fish European aquatic feed contains 40% - 60% of fish by-products This formula may not be economical in the future and has a great relationship with sustainable development However, the recent food panic in Europe has prompted the feed industry to refuse to use animal protein feed 3gq American aquatic feedings3gq in 1998, it is estimated that the output of compound feed in America is about 1.5 million tons The main kinds of feed are: Salmon 600000 tons (40%), catfish 500000 tons (33.3%), shrimp 300000 tons (20%), luofeise 100000 tons (6.7%) The main countries include the United States 500000 tons (33.3%), Chile 400000 tons (26.7%), Ecuador 200000 tons (13.3%), Canada 100000 tons (6.7%), Brazil 80000 tons (5.3%), Mexico 700000 tons (46.7%) 3gq is mainly concentrated in the production of shrimp feed in tropical South America In 1997, Ecuador produced 210000 tons of shrimp feed and Mexico produced 22400 tons of shrimp feed However, due to viral disease, shrimp production has declined and has gradually turned to tilapia or mixed culture Feed manufacturers expect to significantly increase the demand for extruded seafood feed In the absence of any disease outbreak in Brazil, Shrimp production is expected to double, reaching 15000 tons in 2000 In 1999, Colombia produced 150000t shrimp feed and 48000t sea fish feed Brazil's aquatic product market has grown from 54000 tons in 1996 to 118000 tons in 2000, of which 90% is extruded fish feed Due to the high price of imported high-quality animal protein components in Brazil, the stability of local animal protein quality should be improved The feed industry must develop a production process that can increase plant components in fish diets
