La acuacultura y la pesca — aunque significativamente diferentes pues una agricultura y la otra es cacería — son actividades relacionadas muy de cerca que comparten muchos componentes de sus cadenas de valor, incluyendo sus mercados y clientes. Ambas tienen muy importantes, crecientes funciones globales que desempeñar en la seguridad alimentaria en las próximas décadas.
