<\/div>\r\n<\/a>\r\n<\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u0627\u0644\u0645\u0633\u0643\u0627\u062a \u0639\u0646\u0628 \u0637\u064a\u0628 \u0627\u0644\u0634\u0630\u0627<\/strong>: In alignment with the aims of Oman Vision 2040 to diversify the economy and reduce dependency on hydrocarbons, the country&#8217;s aquaculture sector is emerging as a significant contributor to the non-oil economy. Enhanced policy support, growing investor interest, and a focus on food security have driven substantial growth, making the sector an attractive option for both local and foreign investment.<\/p>\n<p>Key performance indicators for 2025 reflect this positive trend. Total aquaculture production soared to <strong>9,240 tonnes<\/strong>, a substantial increase from <strong>5,507 tonnes<\/strong> \u0641\u064a \u0639\u0627\u0645 2024\u060c \u0648\u0647\u0648 \u0645\u0627 \u064a\u0645\u062b\u0644 <strong>67.7%<\/strong> rise. Furthermore, the sector&#8217;s economic value surged to <strong>RO 20.3 million<\/strong>\u060c \u0623\u0639\u0644\u0649 \u0645\u0646 <strong>RO 12.4 million<\/strong>\u060c \u0645\u0645\u0627 \u064a\u0645\u062b\u0644 \u0646\u0645\u0648\u064b\u0627 \u0642\u062f\u0631\u0647 <strong>63.7%<\/strong>. These advancements highlight improved operational efficiency and increased production capacity, underscoring aquaculture&#8217;s potential as a stable, returns-driven investment.<\/p>\n<p>This growth is supported by a series of major projects aimed at expanding capacity and diversifying output. Four significant investment packages have been initiated, including three large-scale shrimp farming ventures in Al Sharqiyah South and Al Wusta Governorates. Collectively, these projects are expected to achieve an annual production capacity of approximately <strong>13,000 tonnes<\/strong>, backed by investments totaling <strong>RO 51.1 million<\/strong>. They are designed to promote balanced regional development while optimizing the use of coastal resources.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, diversification efforts through finfish farming are underway, particularly in the Wilayat of Qurayat, Muscat Governorate, where a project is set to produce <strong>2,000 tonnes annually<\/strong> with an investment of <strong>3.8 \u0645\u0644\u064a\u0648\u0646 \u0631\u064a\u0627\u0644 \u0639\u0645\u0627\u0646\u064a<\/strong>. This initiative aims to reduce reliance on imports, strengthen domestic value chains, and support downstream fisheries industries.<\/p>\n<p>In terms of production, white-legged shrimp and European cobia are the primary focus due to strong market demand, followed by tilapia, Omani abalone, and rock oysters. This variety demonstrates a flexible production base designed to cater to diverse consumer tastes.<\/p>\n<p>The Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Water Resources indicates that the implementation of advanced aquaculture technologies\u2014including smart water management, automated feeding systems, and intensive farming techniques\u2014is central to enhancing productivity while ensuring environmental sustainability.<\/p>\n<p>Beyond mere food production, aquaculture is also boosting Oman\u2019s seafood exports, augmented by a growing commitment to quality standards and sustainability certifications that enhance competitiveness on the global stage. Coordinated fisheries management, including regulated fishing seasons, further protects natural fish stocks and guarantees long-term resource sustainability.<\/p>\n<p>The sector is a cornerstone of Oman\u2019s broader blue economy strategy, which aims to elevate its contribution to over <strong>10%<\/strong> of GDP by 2040. Aquaculture\u2019s role in fostering economic growth while preserving marine ecosystems positions it as a critical component of this vision, also generating employment opportunities, particularly in coastal communities.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, the sector is catalyzing the development of related industries such as seafood processing, packaging, and export logistics, thereby increasing domestic value addition. A continued focus on clean technologies, efficient resource utilization, and environmentally responsible practices\u2014such as water quality management and reduced antibiotic use\u2014will further enhance the sector&#8217;s long-term sustainability.<\/p>\n<p><style>\r\n@keyframes hitl8gak-fadein{from{opacity:0;transform:translateY(14px)}to{opacity:1;transform:translateY(0)}}\r\n@keyframes
