In 1990, Louisiana produced 90% of the crawfish in the world and consumed 70% of it locally, [13] but by 2003, Asian farms and fisheries produced more, outpacing American production rapidly. By 2018, P. clarkii crawfish production in the Americas represented just 4% of total global P. clarkii supply. [14]
