Fisheries can be broadly classified into two main types: capture fisheries and aquaculture. Each of these has distinct characteristics and plays a significant role in global food production, particularly in the context of the economics of food. Capture Fisheries involve the harvesting of wild fish and other marine organisms from their natural habitats. This form of fishing includes both marine and freshwater fisheries.
