• Japan => world's leading consumers of seafood & main exporter
• However, Japan fish catches show a sharp decline over the past 20-30
years due to :
➢ Global warming (sea water temperatures rising, fishes migration…)
➢ Territorial dispute with Russia over the EEZ (salmon & trout)
• Objectives:
➢ Need more and more stable and planned fish catches/production: aquaculture,
especially land-based, is on the rise
➢ Most important issue is how to manage water quality.
