Aquaculture has made up an increasingly large proportion of fisheries products produced in the Philippines, and there has been considerable research into improving aquacultural output. Philippine output in total makes up 1% of global aquaculture production, and the country is the fourth-largest producer of seaweed.
Data collection is particularly difficult for municipal fisheries, as municipal fishing boats are not well-monitored. [14]: 66 Similarly, catch that is not landed in official ports and distributed locally is missed by official statistics. The real production from municipal fisheries may be 14% higher than the data shows. [14]: 26

Territorial waters and exclusive economic zone of the Philippines. The Philippines is an archipelagic state whose over 7,000 islands [1] with their large coastal population [2]: 2 are surrounded by waters including 2,263,816 square kilometres (874,064 sq mi) of exclusive economic zone and 679,800 square kilometres (262,500 sq mi) of territorial sea, [3]: 1 of which 184,600 square kilometres ...
World capture fisheries and aquaculture production by species group [1] This is a list of aquatic animals that are harvested commercially in the greatest amounts, listed in order of tonnage per year (2012) by the Food and Agriculture Organization. Species listed here have an annual tonnage in excess of 160,000 tonnes.
From producing 7,187 million tons in 1985, freshwater fish cages produced 35,362 million tons in 1993. That year saw marine fish cage use become large enough to be recorded, and combined production reached 43,000 million tons in 1997. By 1995, cage use had spread to Taal Lake, where 3,140 fish cages were registered under 1,138 operators. As ...
Fish are harvested by commercial fishing and aquaculture. Stocks fished within biologically sustainable levels decreased from 90% in 1974 to 62.3% in 2021. [5] The world harvest increased over the 20th century and, by 1986, had stabilized around 85–95 million metric tons (94 × 10 ^ 6 –105 × 10 ^ 6 short tons) per year. [9]
