In a world increasingly impacted by climate change and disruptions to global supply chains, food production systems are increasingly challenged to fulfil the food security needs of nations. With over 90% of its food imported, Singapore has made safeguarding its food security a priority.
Aquaculture, with its versatile ability to be carried out both on land and in water, holds untapped opportunities to boost local food production. This documentary provides insight into how varied stakeholders in Singapore continue to innovate and transform the aquaculture industry through the use of technologies while safeguarding the environment. The Singapore Aquaculture Plan has brought together stakeholders across the agri-food value chain in close collaboration to shape the vision for Singapore’s aquaculture industry.
As farmers, researchers, policymakers, conservationists, and offtakers come together to realise a common vision, aquaculture that is both sustainable and productive can contribute to a resilient future. The Singapore Aquaculture Plan will be a living roadmap to build an aquaculture sector that not only feeds our population but also protects our marine environment for generations to come.

Singapore Food Agency
The Singapore Food Agency (SFA) is the national food agency overseeing food safety and food security in Singapore. The mission of the SFA is to ensure and secure a supply of safe food. To safeguard Singapore’s food security, SFA adopts a multi-pronged approach which includes diversifying food import sources and increasing local food production. To ensure that food in Singapore is safe for consumption, SFA has in place an integrated farm-to-fork food safety system which adopts a risk-based approach guided by science and aligned with international standards. As food safety and security is a joint responsibility, SFA provides an enabling environment that supports all stakeholders to play their part.
