[25]: 28 The average production of marine capture fisheries increased from 1.32 million MT per year in the 1980s, to 1.68 million in the 1990s, and 2.08 in the 2000s. In 2018, 1.89 million MT were caught, 2% of the global total. [33]: 13 Inland capture fisheries produced 160 thousand MT in 2018, about 1% of the global inland catch.
In 2021, municipal capture fisheries produced 1.13 million metric tons of product, 26.64% of total fisheries production. Nationally, 2.19 million people were employed in municipal fishing activities, of which 50.03% were in capture fisheries, 11.59% in gleaning activities, and 11.28% in aquaculture. Other fish processing and municipal fishing ...

Wild fisheries can be marine or lacustrine/riverine , and rely heavily on the carrying capacity of the local aquatic ecosystem. Wild fisheries are sometimes called capture fisheries . The aquatic life they support is not artificially controlled in any meaningful way and needs to be "captured" or fished.
Aquaculture has made up an increasingly large proportion of fisheries products produced in the Philippines, and there has been considerable research into improving aquacultural output. Philippine output in total makes up 1% of global aquaculture production, and the country is the fourth-largest producer of seaweed.
Capture fisheries can be broadly classified as industrial scale, small-scale or artisanal, and recreational. Close to 90% of the world's fishery catches come from oceans and seas, as opposed to inland waters. These marine catches have remained relatively stable since the mid-nineties (between 80 and 86 million tonnes). [11]
A regional fishery body (RFB) [1] is a type of international organization that is part of an international fishery agreement or arrangement to cooperate on the sustainable use and conservation of marine living resources (fish and marine mammals) and/or the development of marine capture fisheries whose such capacity has been recognized by the UN Food and Agriculture Organization under the ...
The Celebes Sea has warm clear waters and harbors about 580 of the world's 793 species of reef-building corals, which grow as some of the most bio-diverse coral reefs in the world, and an impressive array of marine life, including whales and dolphins, sea turtles, manta rays, eagle rays, barracuda, marlin and other reef and pelagic species.
