# Driving change in South East Asian fisheries and fishmeal supply - Benison Media

> A new study commissioned by the Global Aquaculture Alliance and IFFO examines Thailand and Vietnam, two large Southeast Asian producers of seafood for food and feed. It finds that fisheries investment in the 1960s to 1980s raised fishing effort and that fishmeal and aquaculture grew quickly, using low-value trawl catch. Fish for fishmeal makes up a small share of the catch.
