Résumé

The strategy Aquaculture 2020 gives impetus to considerably increasing the production of Austrian freshwater fish. As Austria depends, to a large extent, on imports of marine and freshwater fish, the goal sought is to raise the rate of self-sufficiency for freshwater fish from presently about 34% to 60% by the year 2020, which corresponds to a production increase by 2,400 tonnes to 5,500 tonnes annually. According to the strategy, the set goals can only be achieved in the case of optimized framework conditions for aquaculture in Austria. The strategy Aquaculture 2020 presents a package of measures in order to contribute to the expansion of the Austrian aquaculture. The strategy is structured as follows: Measure 1 Transparent and efficient procedures – New guidelines for approval procedures Measure 2 Making the Institute for Water Ecology, Fishery Biology and Lake Research (BAW-IGF) a centre of competence for education, advisory services and scientific guidance Measure 3 Expanding production through innovation and new production sites Measure 4 The European Maritime and Fisheries Fund European Maritime and Fisheries Fund (EMFF) as a tool for implementing the strategy “Aquaculture 2020” Measure 5 Continue on the path of quality production.
