The global non-food use of aquatic plants is dominated by Indonesia, showing significant production despite a slight decline in 2023. The Philippines holds a distant second place, while countries like North Korea and Chile contribute moderately. Notable growth is seen in countries such as Cambodia, Peru, and Morocco, indicating potential shifts in production capabilities or resource allocation. Conversely, nations like China, Namibia, and Tunisia are experiencing substantial declines.
Future trends to watch include increased interest and investment in sustainable aquaculture practices, potentially driving growth in non-food uses of aquatic plants. Countries investing in technology and sustainability are poised for growth in this sector.
