Japan Aquafeed Industry Trends and Drivers:
The Japan aquafeed market is growing at a significant pace, owing to the presence of a large-scale aquaculture industry in the country, reduction in wild fish catch leading to increase in farming of fishes, and demand for quality seafood products from the domestic as well as the export market. Japan is one of the major aquaculture producing countries in the world, producing species such as yellowtail, red seabream, bluefin tuna, scallops and oysters all of which require specialised, nutritionally-balanced feed products that enable them to grow rapidly in a healthy manner whilst maintaining high levels of product quality. The policy initiatives by the government to support aquaculture as a means to address the challenges of food security and dwindling capture fisheries provide for an enabling environment for industry growth and development of new technology. Moreover,Japanese consumers’ demand on specific seafood species, quality features and food safety standards makes aquaculture suppliers to have premium feed formulations with predictable results and safe product that can be traced.
With ongoing innovations in feed formulations, feeds tailored to the needs of each species for their nutritional requirements, growth stages and production environments are now available, and functional ingredients that support immune function, disease resistance and the quality of flesh are also being included. The sourcing of ingredients is being transformed by the drive for sustainability, with feed producers transitioning away from reliance on wild-caught fish meal towards alternative protein sources such as soy meal, insect meal and single-cell proteins that can preserve nutritional adequacy while lessening environmental burden. Process advancements in feeding technology with extrusion technology generating highly digestible and water-stable pellets also enhance feeding efficiency and minimize nutrients loss into aquatic environment. Additives such as vitamins, minerals, amino acids and probiotics can further improve the health of fish, the growth performance and the ability to withstand stress in busy culture systems. Aquaculture supply chains are under increasing pressure to deliver traceability, quality assurance and food safety, which in turn is boosting demand for certified feed products which comply with stringent standards. Development in offshore aquaculture and intensification of land based recirculating aquaculture systems give a unique feed demand and market potential in Japan for aquafeed products.
