India has set an ambitious target of increasing its seafood exports to $30 billion by the year 2031. This goal was highlighted during a national workshop on seafood exports inaugurated by Union Minister Piyush Goyal in Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh. The target represents a significant increase from the current export value of approximately $8.5 billion. To achieve this objective, the government is focusing on expanding market access through free trade agreements, improving fisheries infrastructure, and supporting exporters. Andhra Pradesh, India's leading seafood-exporting state, is expected to play a crucial role in helping the country reach this milestone.
