Africa-Press – Angola. <\/strong> <\/span>Angola intends to reach a production of eight thousand tons of fish in aquaculture by 2027, the Minister of Fisheries and Marine Resources, Carmen do Sacramento Neto, said Monday.<\/b><\/p>\n

The minister, who was speaking at the opening of the national sustainable aquaculture forum 2026, stated that the country produced, in February 2026, around six thousand 506 tons of fish in aquaculture, a slight increase compared to the six thousand 343 tons recorded in January.<\/p>\n

The minister highlighted that, despite the progress, the pace of growth is still insufficient to meet national needs.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn essence, the data show progress, but they also indicate, without room for illusions, that the current pace still does not satisfy domestic demand,\u201d she stressed.<\/p>\n

According to the manager, tilapia dominates the sector, with monthly production of more than five million kilograms, while species such as catfish and oysters continue with reduced volumes.<\/p>\n

At the territorial level, she said that the province of Cuanza-Sul leads national production, with around 3.2 million kilograms per month, followed by Uige, with approximately 2.1 million, showing a strong concentration in a few production centers.<\/p>\n

Regarding the structure of the sector, the minister said that Angola has 845 registered aquaculture enterprises, of which only 422 are in activity, with 71 percent of production concentrated in just 17 large projects.<\/p>\n

She argued that the forum should mark the beginning of a new phase, more focused on execution, concrete results and direct impact on the lives of the population.<\/p>\n

The minister added that the country produced, in 2025, around 35,000 tons of fish in aquaculture, with the intermediate goal of reaching 50,000 tons by 2030, as part of the sector’s growth strategy.<\/p>\n

In turn, the vice-governor for Technical and Infrastructure services of the province of Cuanza-Sul, Heitor Alfredo, stated that the province registers relevant initiatives, with emphasis on the municipalities of Waku Kungo, Cassongue, Quibala, Sumbe and Gabela.<\/p>\n

He noted that, despite the challenges, aquaculture activity has contributed significantly to food security and family income.<\/p>\n

The official reiterated that Cuanza-Sul remains open to private investment in the sector, including the creation of fry production centers, distribution networks, training of producers and formalization of informal operators.<\/p>\n

The National Sustainable Aquaculture Forum 2026, which takes place over two days under the motto \u201cInvesting in aquaculture is ensuring food security\u201d, addresses topics linked to sector policies, development, research, technological innovation and project financing.<\/p>\n
