Global hamour production

As of 2016, the top five countries in terms of hamour fish production were China, India, Indonesia, Vietnam, and Thailand. Combined, these countries accounted for over 80 percent of the world's total production. China is by far the largest producer of hamour fish, accounting for nearly 60 percent of the world's total production in 2016. India is the second largest producer, with a production volume of approximately 990 thousand metric tons in the same year. Indonesia, Vietnam, and Thailand are also major producers, accounting for 7 percent, 5 percent, and 3 percent of global production, respectively. The global hamour fish market is expected to continue growing in the coming years, driven by the growing demand for fish and seafood in developing countries such as China and India. In addition, the increasing popularity of aquaculture is expected to boost the market growth. Aquaculture is a sustainable and efficient method of fish production that can help meet the growing demand for fish without putting a strain on natural resources.
