The global market is projected to see pharmaceuticals and biologics contribute to a significant 78.5% share by the year 2034. Various therapeutics, such as anti-inflammatories, antifungals, antibiotics, and other medications, play a crucial role in both aquaculture feed and pharmaceuticals for aquatic species. The anticipation is that multiple vaccines will gain popularity in enhancing immunity and preventing viral infections among farm species. Additionally, several oral medications are employed as immunity boosters within the aquaculture industry.

By 2034, carps are expected to dominate the aquaculture feed and pharmaceutical market, holding a substantial 43.8% share. Carps offer valuable byproducts, including residue and shells, which are rich in nutrients like amino acids, chitin, proteins, lipids, and essential minerals such as calcium and phosphorus. These components significantly enhance their value as feed supplements for various aquaculture species.

Crab shells contain chitin, a substance often processed into chitosan, which finds application in aquaculture health products and pharmaceuticals. The antimicrobial properties of chitosan contribute to disease prevention, control of parasites, and wound healing in various aquaculture species.
