Essays in Aquaculture: Economics and Marketing by Arne Sørvig, Stavanger : University of Stavanger, 2015 (PhD thesis UiS, no. 283)Abstract
The global aquaculture sector is currently experiencing a market revolution. In 2003, the Economist described the evolution of aquaculture during the 1960 and -70ies as a Blue Revolution. Many key scientific breakthroughs and innovations allowing for human control of fish biology and breeding happened during these decades. The breakthroughs created a number of new opportunities, and the knowledge foundation for industrial aquaculture. However, the main market impact due to the so called blue revolution did not start until the 1990ies (Figure 1.1), and is accompanied by a revolution in seafood supply chain organization, as the control with production in aquaculture also allow for new forms of logistics, transports, sales and marketing. The aquaculture revolution is still ongoing, spinning off innovations in industrial production and distribution, ownership integration.
