africa/global: Poor Countries to Dominate Fish Industry in 2020

Developing countries will shape nearly all growth in the fish industry in the next two decades, while greater reliance on fish farming could force a trade-off between the health of wild fisheries and the environment, and the well being of the poor. These findings come from Outlook for Fish to 2020: Meeting Global Demand, a report released by the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) and the World Fish Centre. The study forecasts trends in supply and demand for fish and seafood products over the next twenty years and their impact on fisheries.
