Aquaculture has positioned itself as an alternative to close the gap between supply and demand of seafood, thus increasing food security for many countries. In Mexico, however, its development has been limited due to the discontinuous way in which policies focused on aquaculture activity have been generated. They have been characterized by an absence in the institutionalization and recognition of each of the phases of aquaculture, as well as the application of specific support schemes for each of them. Based on a historical analysis of legislation and instruments of aquaculture policy and making a triangulation of data, we examine the sensitive points for México. Our main conclusion is that aquaculture policies require comprehensive schemes aimed to the creation of value and recognition of the binomial aquaculture-biotechnology.

Keywords : Fishing Industry; aquaculture management; institutional change; regulatory public policies.
