“…Survey data on usage pattern of chemicals and VMPs in primary production is required to comply with the international regulatory requirements for safety of fish consumers. The monitory value of the rejected Indian seafood consignments at USA, EU and Japan alone were estimated to be between USD 35 and 40 million 39 . Additionally, the other economic impacts include delay in delivery, product recall, subsequent adverse publicity, increased frequency of border checks, loss of market accessibility and a possible ban of Indian seafood.…”

The use of chemicals, biologicals and veterinary medicinal products (VMPs) helps in healthy and sustainable fish production. Information on the use of these products is essential for assessing farming practices, potential human health and environmental risks. A questionnaire‐based nationwide survey covering aquaculture farms (n = 2936) producing carps, tilapia, pangasius and rainbow trout in freshwater and shrimp in brackishwater estimated the use of 52 different types of inputs which included disinfectants (597 g t−1), probiotics (2.28 kg t−1), environmental modifiers (22.82 kg t−1), nutritional supplements (1.96 kg t−1), natural anti‐infective agents (293 g t−1), herbicide and piscicides (844 g t−1), antibiotics (2 mg PCU−1), antifungal (4 mg PCU−1), and antiparasitic (14 mg PCU−1) agents. The bulk of these inputs was used for soil and water quality improvement and had low environmental and human safety concerns. The multivariate analysis revealed significant variation in the frequency and quantity of compounds use among farm groups. Redundancy analysis revealed a significant association between the number of products used and stocking density. The survey also showed a considerable influence of education and farming experience on the usage pattern of aquaculture inputs. Results of the study indicated greater reliance of farmers on the use of disinfectants for biosecurity, nutritional supplements for enhanced growth and environmental modifiers for maintaining soil and water quality in culture systems. Though there was no use of restricted antibiotics and antiparasitic agents, the development and implementation of standard regulatory guidelines are essential for safe and effective use of inputs for sustainable aquaculture.

“…With ongoing economic globalization, in tandem with a higher awareness of the health benefits of seafood consumption, international trade in aquatic products has increased, attracting considerable research attention (Gephart and Pace 2015 ; Crona et al 2015 ; Sabau and Muktadir Boksh 2017 ; Chen et al 2018 ; Ping et al 2018 ; Giusti et al 2019 ; Geetha et al 2020 ; Jin-Kai and Jian-Qiu 2020 ). With China becoming one of the world’s major exporters of aquatic products, many studies have specifically focused on China’s seafood exports.…”

Factors affecting fluctuations in China’s aquatic product exports to Japan, the USA, South Korea, Southeast Asia, and the EU

Seafood has important health benefits, and the growing demand for aquatic products has stimulated rapid trade development. Using 2000–2018 data from the UN Comtrade Database, this study first introduced the export scale, product structure, and market distribution of China’s aquatic products. Then, using an extended constant market share model, we investigated the factors affecting fluctuations in China’s aquatic product exports to the USA, Japan, South Korea, the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), and the European Union (EU). Import demand was found to be the most important factor affecting China’s aquatic product exports. Moreover, China’s export structure and market distribution for aquatic products have become increasingly consistent with global demand. In recent years, China’s aquatic product competitiveness has declined while its market destinations have diversified. Regarding China’s aquatic product types, the main focus has been on labor- and resource-intensive products with low competitiveness. More recently, however, China’s competitiveness of product types 0371 and 0372 (Standard International Trade Classification) has been improving in the world market. To further develop China’s aquatic product exports, policy should aim to maintain the fisheries ecosystem, encourage seafood operators to adopt good practices, increase investment in science and technology, overcome technical barriers to trade, strengthen research on the needs, preferences, and requirements of major importing countries, expand domestic demand, and strengthen international cooperation.
