The land-based aquaculture industry is maturing, and some cases are showing economic viability. Since our 2023 edition, a new generation of projects have entered
into the production phase. Key grow-out operations have started to execute on time and on budget. The net-pen salmon industry continues to adopt RAS technology to cope with growing biological challenges at sea.
This fourth edition of the Land-based Aquaculture Report, by Spheric Research, is the most current and comprehensive data-driven overview of the global land-based
aquaculture industry and its suppliers to date. It includes operators from both recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) and partial RAS systems.
Spheric’s proprietary database is founded on visits to facilities and interactions with projects as far back as the early 2000s, and it now includes all land-based systems in the world we are aware of. This new state of the industry report provides insights into the evolution of the industry, including established and newer operating companies.
