Total fisheries production (metric tons) by country

What this measures

Total fisheries production measures the volume of aquatic species caught by a country for all commercial, industrial, recreational and subsistence purposes. The harvest from mariculture, aquaculture and other kinds of fish farming is also included.

Each country's latest available year is shown; countries report on different schedules, so compare years before comparing values.
