This publication contains data on world production of fish, crustaceans, molluscs and other aquatic animals and plants from aquaculture practices for the years 1993-2002. The statistics, in quantity and value, are presented by country or territory, species, culture environment and year, and for various aggregations. The data are based on officially reported national statistics, or where these are lacking or are considered unreliable, from FAO estimates based on the best information available. A separate volume is also available with statistics on capture production (ISBN 9250051395).
