Key contacts in aquaculture meet at Aquatic Asia 2011

Aquaculture is one of the fastest growing sectors in livestock farming in Asia, noting an annual increase of eight to 10 percent in this part of the world. Despite this growth, the demand for fish in the coming decades will still exceed the supply. The independent Aquatic Asia 2011 trade show in Thailand will act as the biennial meeting point in Asia-Pacific for buyers and suppliers in the booming aquaculture market. The event will take place at BITEC, Bangkok from 9 to 11 March.

Aquatic Asia 2011 is organised in co-location with VIV Asia 2011, offering visitors a unique opportunity to meet key contacts in aquaculture only or with a joint interest in aquaculture, poultry and pigs. The concept of Aquatic Asia also involves the related activities of mariculture and capture-based aquaculture. Visitors who register to attend one of the trade fairs can also visit the other trade event. During Aquatic Asia 2011 the entire range in the field of aquaculture will be brought together and clearly structured at a dedicated exhibition for the complete production column from feed to fish.

This brand new event for the Asian aquaculture industries includes research & development, production, packaging and marketing of four main categories for aquaculture, fish, molluscs, crustaceans and algae. The compact, but substantively strong, exhibition targets a niche that has not yet been presented in a similar trade fair concept in Asia. Aquatic Asia is a separate event, which originated from the special theme Aqua VIV Asia during VIV Asia 2009. At this edition of the VIV 13.5 percent of the visitors were specialised in aquaculture.
