Abstract: The paper provides a short overview of Brazilian aquaculture production and some of the influences affecting its development. Data on total and species‐specific production are provided along with the locations, numbers of producers, their market contributions and influences. The focus is on some of the key groups, not all, especially tilapia, tambaqui, shrimp, prawn and mollusc farming. The wider influences on production including markets, management practices, technology, resources and research and also consu… Show more

“…Brazilian aquaculture is based mostly on semi‐intensive production regimes and, except for the shrimp farming sector, is sustained mostly by small producers (IBGE, 2016). Tilapia ( Oreochromis niloticus ) is the leading fish‐farmed species in Brazil representing 57 percent of the total national (farming) (Marques et al, 2020; PeixeBR, 2020). Brazil is in 13th place in the world aquaculture fish production and in eighth in the world inland aquaculture production of finfish (FAO, 2020).…”

“…The native fish species are in the ranking of the most produced fish in Brazil (SAINT-PAUL, 2017). However, tilapia is the leading fish-farmed species in Brazil representing 57 percent of the total national farming (PEIXEBR, 2020;MARQUES et al 2020). Boosting the production of native species in the country, Brazilian research institutes have focused on improving technologies that enable greater production of native fish, such as matrinxã (GOMES et al, 2020), surubim and its hybrids (FANTINI et al, 2020), silver catfish (BALDISSEROTTO; RADÜNZ-NETO, 2004;MARTINELLI et al, 2013;POLI;SCHVEITZER;NUNER, 2015;ROCHA et al, 2017, tambacu (REIS NETO et al, 2020CARDOSO et al, 2020) 116 Cavalli et al ROCHA et al, 2012), pink shrimp (WASIELESKY Jr. et al, 2018), among others.…”

“…Support for sustainable aquaculture should be prioritized, with generation and implementation of environmentally friendly production units. Investment in sustainable production systems for aquaculture is an alternative that should be encouraged to ensure environmental protection that is also economically viable and socially just (MARQUES et al, 2020).…”
