This may be of interest to you - Aquatic food fraud occurs when products are mislabelled, substituted, or altered, often without consumers' knowledge. These practices can undermine consumer trust, distort markets, and affect the integrity of fisheries and aquaculture value chains. A detailed report was published by FAO/IAEA Fraud in Fisheries & Aquaculture Technical Report 742 Feb 2026.
Join the FAO GLOBEFISH webinar to explore aspects of the report such as:
How aquatic food fraud impacts consumers and markets
