While the world already produces 1.5 times the amount of food required to feed the global population, more than 500 million people remain undernourished. Food is often wasted or spoiled before it can reach consumers in low- and middle-income countries. Strengthening aquatic food supply chains with more efficient practices and new innovations can help ensure nutrient-rich aquatic foods can reach those most vulnerable to malnutrition.
