Market Growth Factors

The growth of the Thailand aquaculture market is driven significantly by the expansion of sustainable farming practices, especially the adoption of integrated mangrove‑shrimp aquaculture (IMS). This system, combining shrimp ponds with mangrove plantings, helps restore ecological balance, improve water quality, and stabilize shrimp production. Mangrove coverage between 30% and 50% is considered optimal for profitability, offering both environmental and economic benefits. The IMS approach aligns with global sustainability standards and supports the livelihoods of inland and coastal communities, underlining its importance as a growth catalyst in the market.

Technological integration also plays a pivotal role, with IoT-enabled sensor networks and digital tools transforming aquaculture operations. Real-time monitoring of water quality, automated feeding, and advanced biomarker systems allow farmers to make timely decisions that reduce waste and disease prevalence. These technologies enhance productivity in shrimp and freshwater fish farming by improving cost-effectiveness and system resilience. The growing focus on precision aquaculture reflects a paradigm shift from traditional to data-driven farming methods, fueling market expansion.

Another key growth factor is the robust support from both public and private sectors to promote sustainable shrimp farming. For instance, Thai Union’s SeaChange 2030 initiative pledges $200 Million investment to improve transparency, sustainability, and emissions reduction in the aquaculture supply chain. Additionally, partnerships such as the $150 Million blue loan agreement involving the Asian Development Bank and Thai Union aim to train shrimp farmers, enhance disease resilience, and increase climate adaptability. These investments bolster the market by advancing sustainable practices and securing ecosystem health.
