In 2012, the percentage of European aquaculture production (of
world total production) was 4.32 percent (2,880,641 tonnes) and the
European Union (28 member organisations) contribution to world
production was 1.89 percent (1,259,971 tonnes) (FAO, 2014). The
European Union (EU) is the third largest seafood producer
(aquaculture and fisheries) in the world and Europe is also the
biggest importer of seafood products. Norway's aquaculture sector
contributed 46 percent of total European aquaculture production
(FAO, 2014). Aquaculture is politically recognised as having the
potential to boost growth and jobs in EU coastal and inland areas
with several key European policies highlighting aquaculture as
being a key component in achieving economic growth and
competitiveness on a global level e.g. the overall Blue Growth
strategy, the reformed Common Fisheries Policy (CFP), sea basin
strategies (i.e. Baltic Sea Region Strategy) etc. At the same time,
as an example of the significant challenges to the growth of the
sector, in the EU, there are currently over 200 directives,
regulations, or other legislation that directly affect marine
environmental policy and management (Boyes & Elliott, 2014) and
many European national states lack a coherent national aquaculture
policy. The CFP reform envisioned the development and promotion of
EU aquaculture through the so-called 'open method of coordination'
based on strategic guidelines, multiannual national plans prepared
by the Member States and exchange of best practices. In 2013, the
European Commission (EC) published the Strategic Guidelines for the
Sustainable Development of EU Aquaculture (European Commission,
2013b) to assist EU Member States in defining their own national
targets taking account of their relative starting positions,
national circumstances and institutional arrangements.
