日本養魚市場評估:按類型、規模、水源、用途、最終用戶、分銷管道、區域、機會和預測(2018 財年-2032 財政年度)Japan Fish Farming Market Assessment, By Species, By Scale, By Water Source, By Purpose, By End-user, By Distribution Channel, By Region, Opportunities and Forecast, FY2018-FY2032F |
日本養魚市場規模預計將從 2024 財年的 56.5 億美元增至 2032 財年的 66.7 億美元,預計 2025 財年至 2032 財年的複合年增長率為 2.10%。日本長期以來依賴週邊海洋資源,但過度捕撈和環境變化導致野生魚類數量大幅下降。為了解決這個問題,日本越來越多地轉向魚類養殖作為可持續的替代方案,以滿足其海鮮需求,同時保護其天然魚類資源。根據聯合國糧食及農業組織預測,2024年日本魚類消費量為5,842噸。
技術變革使日本的陸上水產養殖更加實用和有效率。循環水產養殖系統透過閉環系統重複利用水,可以完全控制水質、溫度和廢物管理,從而優化魚類生長的所有條件。由於對空間的高需求和有關環境考慮的嚴格法律,此類系統在日本變得流行。例如,2024年6月,日本水產養殖公司Soul of Japan KK宣布獲得價值2.11億美元(330億日圓)的長期債務融資,用於開發循環水產養殖系統(RAS)設施。該設施將成為亞洲最大的陸上鮭魚養殖場,每年生產10,000噸大西洋鮭魚。
此外,由於封閉系統、自動飼養和水質監測,養魚市場正在擴大。這些創新提高了效率,減少了對環境的影響,並能夠更好地調節魚類健康和生長條件。由於空間和自然資源的限制,它在日本也佔有重要地位。
日本政府支持養魚業作為經濟多元化的一種形式,特別是對於沿海農村地區,因為漁業可以創造就業機會並維持基層經濟。因此,它已成為各種區域發展策略的重要組成部分。
陸基水產養殖推動市場成長
陸基水產養殖是日本快速發展的循環水養殖系統。日本在相對較小的區域內人口極為密集,對傳統水產養殖和海洋捕撈提出了重大挑戰。結果,沿海水域過度捕撈和污染,野生魚類資源不斷減少,需要替代的魚類生產方法。陸基水產養殖是比水產養殖更可行、更永續的替代方案,因為其整體環境退化程度較高,包括水污染和養殖物種釋放到野外。
由於越來越重視食品品質和安全,陸基水產養殖在日本也越來越受歡迎。透過更好地控制水產養殖環境,生產者可以生產出無病的優質魚類,並滿足日本消費者要求的所有嚴格安全標準。這種方法可以為日本複雜的海鮮市場生產優質魚類。
總部位於東京的General Oyster於2024年1月宣布,在全球首次成功在陸地上培育牡蠣。該公司使用室內水族箱,控制水溫和水質,能夠穩定供應標準品質的魚類。
海鮮消費增加
日本對海鮮的需求非常高,這推動了魚類養殖市場的成長。海鮮是日本料理的主食,是壽司、生魚片和天婦羅等典型菜餚的基礎。根據美國農業部對外農業服務局估計,日本是世界上最大的海鮮消費國之一,2022 年將貢獻 150 億美元的海鮮進口額。
日本周圍環繞著營養豐富的海洋的地理環境,長期以來使海鮮成為豐富且易於獲取的食物來源。此外,注重健康的消費者欣賞海鮮的營養價值,因為海鮮與許多健康益處有關,例如優質蛋白質和 omega-3 脂肪酸。此外,日本的漁業和海鮮市場之間存在著重要的工業和市場聯繫,確保海鮮仍然是日常消費和飲食文化的核心組成部分。
本報告研究和分析了日本魚類養殖市場,提供市場規模和預測、市場動態以及主要參與者的現狀和前景。
Japan fish farming market is projected to witness a CAGR of 2.10% during the forecast period FY2025-FY2032, growing from USD 5.65 billion in FY2024 to USD 6.67 billion in FY2032. Japan has long relied on its surrounding marine resources, but overfishing and environmental changes have significantly declined wild fish populations. To address this, Japan is increasingly turning toward fish farming as a sustainable alternative to meet its seafood demand while preserving natural fish stocks. As per the estimates of the Food and Agriculture Organization, the fish consumption in Japan in 2024 was 5,842 tons.
The technological changes have made land-based aquaculture more practical and efficient in Japan. The recirculation aquaculture systems recycle the water through a closed-loop system, hence giving complete control over the quality of water, temperature, and waste management, consequently optimizing all the conditions for growing fish. Such systems have been prevalent in Japan due to the high demand for space and strict laws on environmental considerations. For instance, in June 2024, Soul of Japan K.K., a Japanese aquaculture company, announced that it had secured a long-term debt facility worth USD 211 million (JPY 33 billion) to develop a recirculating aquaculture system (RAS) facility. This facility will be Asia's largest land-based salmon farm and is expected to produce 10,000 tons of Atlantic Salmon annually.
Furthermore, the fish farming market is witnessing expansion due to closed containment systems, automated feeding, and water quality monitoring. These innovations are enhancing efficiency and reducing environmental impacts, allowing better regulation of fish health and growth conditions. It has been made significant in Japan due to space and natural resource constraints.
Fish farming is supported by the Government of Japan as one of the diversification economies, especially for rural coastal areas, since fishing industries are able to create jobs and sustain the economy at the grassroots level. It thus has become an integral component of various regional development strategies.
Land-based Fish Farming to Drive Market Growth
Land-based fish farming is a rapidly developing recirculating aquaculture system in Japan. The country has a very dense population on a relatively small land space, which presents significant challenges to traditional aquaculture and marine fisheries. It has resulted in overfishing and pollution in coastal waters, hence reducing wild fish stocks and necessitating alternative ways of producing fish. Land-based fish farming is a more viable or sustainable alternative to aquaculture since the levels of degradation of the environment, mainly water pollution and escape of farmed species to the wild, are generally high.
Besides, land-based fish farming is gaining popularity in the country due to the emphasis that has been laid on the quality and security of food. With more control over the farming environment, producers can produce high-quality fish that is disease-free and meets all the stringent safety standards required by Japanese consumers. It is a method that will allow the production of premium varieties of fish for Japan's sophisticated seafood market.
General Oyster, a Tokyo-based company, announced in January 2024 that it had successfully farmed oysters on the land for the very first time in the world. The company utilizes indoor tanks with controlled water temperature and quality, which enables a stable supply of fish of a standard quality.
Increasing Seafood Consumption
Japan has a massive demand for seafood, which is augmenting the growth of the fish farming market. Seafood is a staple in Japanese cuisine, forming the base of iconic dishes such as sushi, sashimi, and tempura. According to the USDA Foreign Agricultural Service estimates, Japan is one of the world's leading seafood consumers, contributing to the imports of USD 15 billion of seafood products in 2022.
Japan's geographical surroundings, bounded by nutrient-rich waters, have long made seafood an abundant and accessible food supply. Besides, health-conscious consumers appreciate the nutritional advantages of seafood, such as high-quality protein and omega-3 fatty acids, which are associated with numerous health benefits. Moreover, there is an essential industrial and market relevance to the fishing industry and seafood markets in Japan, guaranteeing seafood remains a central component of daily consumption and culinary culture.
Salmon to Dominate Market Share in Japan
Salmon is consumed in a high quantity in Japan due to cultural preference, health benefits derived from its consumption, and market dynamics. Salmon fish consumption in Japan has been fueled by the advancement of freezing and farming techniques, which have made it a lot safer for consumption.
The richness and flavor in taste, further assisted by all-round culinary usage, have made salmon popular. It is widely used in sushi, sashimi, and other dishes in Japanese cuisine, finding favor with a huge range of consumers. Besides, health imperatives ascribed to salmon, such as high omega-3 fatty acid content, falling in line with health-conscious Japanese consumer trends, further drive the consumption of this fish variety. Other factors, such as consistency of supply and reasonable and relatively stable prices, make salmon more favored than other kinds of fish.
In May 2024, Proximar Ltd, a Japanese land-based salmon farmer, expected to harvest its first Atlantic Salmon in September 2024. Proximar operates its first production facility at the foot of Mount Fuji in Japan. The company targets an annual production of 5,300 tons in Phase 1, with a gradual increase following the initial harvest.
Future Market Scenario (FY2025 - FY2032F)
The market is expected to witness expansion in the fish farming market due to the regulation of the standards of fish farming by global regulatory bodies such as the Aquaculture Stewardship Council. The regulations help fish farmers promote the best environmental and social fish farming, which fulfills the sustainability requirements. For instance, in June 2024, a Japanese fish farm, Izumisawa-Suisan Co.Ltd., became the first commercial farm to obtain Aquaculture Stewardship Council (ASC) certification for its cherry salmon production. The farm, which produces coho salmon, is based in Kamaishi City.
Key Players Landscape and Outlook
The increased key players' investments and multinational companies in the fish farming market in Japan, along with the introduction of innovative products, are driving the market growth exponentially. The growth is fueled by the entry of new players into the emerging market and existing products.
As land-based fish farming is gaining wide popularity in Japan, the key players are expanding their operations and initiating business in land-based or off-shore fish farming. For instance, in May 2022, JGC Holdings Corporation announced that its subsidiary, JGC Japan Corporation, a domestic EPC business company, has been awarded a contract to form a new company, Kamome Mirai Fisheries Company, to develop technology and demonstrate production in the field of onshore aquaculture together with building associated sales channels.
