2007 Economic Survey of the UK Fishing Fleet

Summary

The 2007 report on the economic performance of the UK fleet continues an annual series of analyses of fleet performance. This report presents detailed analysis of 36 segments of the UK fishing fleet, drawing on a combination of data collected by survey and data on landings and days at sea provided by the Marine Fisheries Agency (MFA), which covers every active vessel in the UK fleet. Every vessel active in 2007 has been allocated into one of these 36 segments. Refinements to the segmentation of under 10m vessels provides more useful average performance figures than in previous reports.
