Increase in feed demand, increasing export-oriented aquaculture production, and increased adoption of scientific aquaculture management practices are some of the major drivers for the market. The region has a huge potential for growth during the forecast period and a few of the countries have already begun their initiatives to create a self-sufficient aquaculture system. The dramatic rise and emergence of aquaculture products in the global market place, coupled with the increasing nutritional awareness among consumers, spurred the sales of compound feed and feed additives in the Asia-Pacific region. In countries like India, Thailand, and Vietnam, the increase in the production of commercial aquafeed and aquafeed additives matched the rapid growth of the aquaculture sector. For instance, the official figures from FAO shows that aquafeed production in Vietnam increased by four folds from 2008 to 2016. In the case of India, the heavier harvests of aqua cultured vannamei shrimp covered 41% of the Indian seafood exports in 2017. However, increased governmental support and improved transportation infrastructure increased the importance of international trade in the last ten years. For instance, in India, Marine Products Export Development Authority (MPEDA) launched an initiative to develop a GPS-based database of export-oriented aquaculture farms in the country to ensure their traceability and quality control. Similarly in Indonesia, the PROTEKAN (Program to Increase Exports of Fisheries) program is aimed at intensifying the fishery exports.

Fluctuating Raw Material Prices Restraining the Market

Fluctuating global prices of raw materials and increasing incidences of disease epidemics are some of major reasons restraining the market growth in the region. The growing importance of domestic and export aquaculture market in the developing world has created supply and demand inconsistencies in the international markets. Although the production in the Asia-Pacific region increased, the demand has a relatively stronger upward effect on prices, pushing the Fish Price Index(FPI) up by 7 points in 2017. For instance, the shrimp prices in the global market kept fluctuating from USD 16.93/kg in 2014 to USD 11.46/kg in 2018. China, Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia, and India were the major beneficiaries in terms of export revenues in 2016. According to the Regional Expert Consultation on Aquaculture Health Management in Asia- Pacific (RECAHM), the status of AHPND outbreak in the Mekhong river delta in 2015 was recorded at 2,318 ha for Penaeus monodon culture and 2,309 ha for L. vannamei culture. Similarly, the economic impact of the parasite EHP with in Vietnam, India, and Thailand, incurred the net loss of USD 32,000/ha over normal production economics, if shrimps are grown according to the planned harvest size.
