Promoting higher added value to a finfish species rejected to sea

Objective

This proposal aims to develop the research and the technology necessary to take profit from a fishery resource (RockCod, PatagonotoLhen spp.) currently discarded by the EU fishing fleet operating in the South West Atlantic, in order to supply the EU seafood industry with a good quality raw material for human food manufacturing. Use of this species caught as a by-catch in the existing fisheries targeting hakes and cephalopods, should also increase the profitability of the fleet, contribute maintaining employment and help to counterbalance the negative effects of fishing activity and discards in the ecosystem.

Description of the work
The work is composed of the following tasks: Collection of data on fishing activity (catches, effort and discards) Fisheries description (gears, vessels, etc.). Analysis and description of the main biological parameters. Estimation of long-term sustainable yield. Analysis of the spatio-temporal distribution of the species. Biomass assessment.
