The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) forecasts that aquaculture consumption will rise to 1.09 million tons by 2030, contributing to 59% of total consumption. Shrimp, the world's second-largest traded item, accounts for 65% of this. However, the University of Oregon reports that black tiger shrimp from Southeast Asia has a carbon footprint that is ten times that of beef raised on Amazon rainforest farms. This has sparked concern as countries pledge carbon neutrality due to global warming. Traditionally, shrimp farming in Korea and elsewhere has been semi-intensive, but efforts are being made to reduce this and shift to more sustainable practices like low-salinity biofloc technology. The National Institute of Fisheries Science in Korea is leading research in this area, with support from aquaculture companies, and is also advocating for a certification system for marine products.

According to a report by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), aquaculture consumption is expected to increase to 1.09 million tons by 2030, accounting for 59% of total aquaculture consumption. In 2019, shrimp was the world's second-largest traded item, with aquaculture accounting for 65% of this. It occupies about 48 trillion won in the global market, of which 30 trillion won is produced in Asia. According to a study by the University of Oregon in the US, 100 g of black tiger shrimp from Southeast Asia has a carbon footprint of 198 kg. This is 10 times the amount of beef raised on farms made from logging in the Amazon rainforest. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) announced in its 6th report on August 9 that the global surface temperature has increased by 1.53°C over the past decade. This is 10 years earlier than expected, and it has led to an increase in the frequency, intensity, and duration of heat-related phenomena due to the ...
