The total organic aquaculture production in the EU was close to 99.950 tons in 2021, accounting for 9% of the total EU aquaculture production. More than two thirds of organic production take place in three countries: Ireland which produced almost 33.000 tons in 2021, mainly salmon and mussel; Italy 23.700 tons, mainly mussel and finfish; and the Netherlands 15.300 tons, mainly mussel. Thanks to the growth in organic mussel production, the overall EU organic production of fish and seafood increased notably from 2015, when it was just over 46.000 tons. The increase from 2020 to 2021 was mainly driven by the increased production of organic mussels in Italy and the Netherlands (EUMOFA, 2024).
