Abstract

Digitalization is revolutionizing the fisheries industry, ushering in a new era of sustainable fishing practices and resource management. This abstract explores the transformative impact of digital technologies on fisheries, highlighting key areas of innovation such as digital tracking and monitoring, data-driven decision-making, traceability and transparency, and aquaculture innovation. By leveraging advanced technologies such as satellite-based tracking systems, block chain, and IoT sensors, fisheries stakeholders can enhance efficiency, transparency, and sustainability throughout the seafood supply chain. However, digitalization also presents challenges related to data privacy, access to technology, and equity. Addressing these challenges while maximizing the potential of digitalization is essential for ensuring a future where fisheries are managed responsibly, and marine ecosystems are preserved for generations to come.
