Market characteristics

Tilapia, as an inexpensive source of protein, has a broad consumer base in the global market. Despite factors such as adverse weather and rising feed prices affecting the tilapia market in recent years, its scale continues to grow, particularly significantly in Asia and Africa. Currently, the main product of tilapia is frozen fillets, which have become important commodities in the international market due to their large import and export volumes. However, with increasing market competition, the tilapia market has gradually segmented into different niche markets. Among them, the demand for high-end products has been growing, especially fresh tilapia fillets that meet high-quality and health requirements.

In terms of farming methods, aquaponics systems have seen significant growth. This system integrates fish farming with plant cultivation, achieving efficient resource utilization.
