Presentations and discussions at the event in Corfu, organised by Mercator Media and sponsored by Fitco S.A,
highlighted the positive developments and prospects of aquaculture in the open sea.
Offshore farming is seen by many as a critical food sector amid increasing global demands for seafood.
According to the Federation of Greek Maricultures, in 2017, 63% of seafood harvested in Greece came from aquaculture.
Greece is now emerging as a key player in the European mariculture industry,
with aquaculture production expected to rise to over 200,000 tonnes by 2030.
