Seafood production involves the cultivation and harvesting of fish and other marine organisms for human consumption. This process can occur through various methods, including fishing, aquaculture, and mariculture. Aquaculture refers to the farming of aquatic species in controlled environments, while fishing typically involves capturing wild fish from oceans, rivers, and lakes. The seafood industry plays a significant role in the global economy, providing jobs and food security for millions of people. Sustainable practices are increasingly emphasized to ensure that fish populations remain healthy and ecosystems are preserved, addressing concerns related to overfishing and environmental impact.
