Descripción

FAO’s work in fisheries exploitation and utilization responds to the major problems facing capture fisheries: declining catches, overexploitation, the need to maximize the value of fish harvests and reduce waste, food insecurity and poverty in artisanal fishing communities and problems related to world trade in fish products. Most of this work is of primary interest to the needs and requests of developing country members while, in the areas of fish quality assurance and trade, there is a strong synergy between developing and developed country requirements.
