The number of sea-based seafood farms fell from 109 in 2022 to 98 in 2023, whereas the number of land-based seafood farms rose from 27 in 2022 to 33 in 2023. SFA will also be looking to improve fish farming infrastructure in the southern waters, where the only farm operating there – Barramundi Group – has plans to exit, said the agency.

He added there is no dedicated jetty for fish farmers to use, and the hatchery and nursery on Semakau do not have access to grid-supplied electricity or fresh water – so the company had to transport diesel and fresh water there weekly. A parent pullet farm rears young chickens till they are around 16 to 18 weeks old. These mature chickens are then transferred to the parent layer farm to breed and produce fertile eggs, which are sent to the hatchery.

Singapore has also increased its number of food import sources in the past year, from 183 countries and regions in 2022 to 187 in 2023.
