PParaná organized its fishery production chain through strong financing of the cooperatives of rural producers, which have been created over 50 years ago and have a strong tradition in the production of poultry, and swine. In the last ten years, cooperatives began to invest in the production of fishes, applying the know-how developed in the meat sector.

Brazil can transform fishing products in popular food and turn the country in a great exporter, generating billions of dollars of incomes as it is yet with poultry, swine, and beef.
Fishery production in Brazil, for its natural conditions, is the brand new and promising frontier of foods production.

According to FAO, the consumption of fishing products in the world grows steadily since the decade of 1960. At that time the average world consumption was 9.9 kg/ person/year. In the decade of 1990 it increased to 14.4 kg/person/year, and 20 kg/ person/year in 2014. FAO previews for 2025 are of average consumption of 21.8 kg/ person/year, which means an additional requirement of over 31 millions tons of fishing products a year.
Brazil is one of the world countries with the highest potential of fishery production in the world, mainly through aquaculture. FAO estimates that the country can produce 20 million tons/year. Today Brazil produces1.4 millions of tons.
Brazil has the most extensive world supply of freshwater (13%), ten millions hectares of dammed water surface, 8.4 thousand km of coast, species of fisheries of the highest value, favorable climate and abundance of raw material for the production of feeds.
According to FAO, fishing products are the main animal protein consumed in the world: 35% of the total. Fishing products are a crucial element in the international market, representing 60% of the world animal proteins exportations.
Brazilian fishery production growth is about 8% a year. FAO projects a 104% growth for the next decade, the highest growth among all the world countries, with an estimated production of over 2 million tons/year in 2025.

In 2018, Brazil fish farmed more than 720,000 tons, with a revenue of 4.8 billion RS$ and the production of over one million direct and indirect jobs.
Brazil is the fourth main world producer of tilapia, after China, Indonesia, and Egypt. This species represents 51.7% of the national production of aquaculture.
> Native fish species, headed by the tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) represent 43.7% of the national production. Other species, 4.6%.
> Brazil also produces 70,000 tons of white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei)
