Aquaculture Production Graph


This graph shows the total aquaculture production in Canada. According to it, the highest production rate is in British Columbia, in the Pacific Fishery with approximately 76,420t. The fish most commonly caught at the west coast is salmon, which is a pelagic fish. The second highest production rate with approximately 24,883t is in New Brunswick, which is part of the Atlantic Fishery. The most common found fish here was Cod, but due to overfishing there aren’t many left. Other fishes in this region include herring and shellfish such as lobster and shrimp. Quebec and Manitoba produce the least fish with 875t and 7t respectively. They are a part of the freshwater fishery. Saskatchewan and Alberta produce too little fish to be accounted for.
