Bioeconomy in fisheries and aquaculture

The sustainable management of fisheries and processing industry, as well as competitive development of aquaculture, are crucial for supplying quality fish products within the EU. Marine biotechnologies are estimated to grow 12% per year and the added value of bioeconomy approach to these sectors are fisheries management, aquaculture development, food waste, by-products, seafood safety and blue biotechnologies for food and non-food use. New innovative products could be brought to the markets by promoting further investigations on marine biotechnology. Marine biotechnology thus is interrelated with the bioeconomy sector and is recognized as the key engine for bioeconomy development. With that in mind, the European strategy for innovation for sustainable growth: A bioeconomy for Europe was enacted. Various strategies and programs still need to be developed at different levels and aligned with broader bioeconomy goals. Also, the understanding of marine biotech landscape needs to be improved, as well as ways to stimulate development from basic science to commercial application. However, development should be secure and sustainable, protecting the marine environment and its resources.
