Government Initiatives to Develop Aquaculture Industry Fuel North America Aquatic Veterinary Market

The high demand for seafood and the decreasing annual catch of wild fish are crucial factors that can drive the growth of the aquaculture industry at an exponential rate. Thus, governments are taking initiatives to improve and support the growth of the aquacultural industry. Following are a few recent initiatives:

In February 2021, the Foundation for Food & Agriculture Research (FFAR) raised funds of US$ 790,326 to create a vaccine delivery system to prevent the spread of tilapia lake virus infections and other diseases in the aquaculture sector.
Sea Grant Marine Aquaculture Grant Program: This nationwide competitive grant program, officially known as the "National Marine Aquaculture Initiative (NMAI)," promotes research and demonstration initiatives to advance sustainable marine aquaculture in the US.
In 2022, the USDA National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA) announced a research investment of more than US$ 13 million to investigate new treatments and preventative measures for animal illnesses that cost the global agriculture sector billions of dollars. This included a US$ 625,000 grant to Mississippi State University to assess an antibacterial feed additive that can be used to prevent enteric septicemia in catfish in a secure and useful manner.

This study will contribute to developing aquaculture producers' treatment alternatives, improving production efficiency. Thus, an increase in government initiatives to support developments in the aquaculture industry drives the aquatic veterinary market growth.

North America Aquatic Veterinary Market Overview

According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, aquaculture generates ~US$ 1.5 billion annually in the US. The World Bank states that the US produced ~448 thousand metric ton of products out of aquaculture. As per the same source, ~5.6 million fishes were produced by the North American aquaculture industry in 2021, of which the US accounted for the production of ~4.7 million, i.e., ~83% of the total regional fish production. According to the Fisheries of the US 2020 report, commercial fishermen in the US landed 8.4 billion pounds valued at US$ 4.7 billion in 2020. Anglers in the country took nearly 200 million trips for recreational fisheries in 2020. These recreational anglers caught approximately 1 billion fish and released 65% of those caught. The overall recreational harvest was estimated at 344 million fish weighing 353 million pounds. Thus, the flourishing aquaculture industry fuels the growth of the North America aquatic veterinary market in the US.

In September 2020, the Virbac Group acquired various tilapia vaccines from Ictyogroup, an animal health company specializing in R&D biology. The group received rights for the distribution and marketing of these registered, autogenous vaccines worldwide. The two companies had a partnership for the development of new formulations and new vaccines for the Aqua Virbac division. The agreement also allowed the transfer of several employees specialized in technical marketing support and R&D biology from Ictyogroup to Virbac.

In July 2020, Zoetis acquired Fish Vet Group from Benchmark Holdings, PLC to make a strategic addition to its pharma business. The pharmaceutical business of Zoetis commercializes and develops fish vaccines and offers vaccination and diagnostic services for aquaculture. The acquisition of Fish Vet Group helped Zoetis enhance its diagnostics expertise and testing services, including environmental testing, that Pharmaq's reference lab. Thus, strategic initiatives by various market players in the US aquaculture industry bolster the North America aquatic veterinary market in the US.
