Vietnam is developing its marine aquaculture industry, focusing on molluscs, crustaceans, fish, seaweed, and seaweed farming. The industry currently covers 80,000 hectares and produces about 750,000 tons of seafood and seaweed annually. The government is supporting the industry's growth through policies and investments in infrastructure. However, challenges such as planning, environmental pollution, and limited resources need to be addressed. The goal is to expand the marine farming area to 300,000 hectares by 2030, producing 1.45 million tons and generating an export value of $2 billion. The industry aims to become sustainable, efficient, and contribute to the income of coastal communities while protecting the ecological environment and supporting national defense and security.
