The Sea Fish Industry Authority - Annual Report and Accounts 2012/2013

The Annual Report provides a detailed Management Commentary and financial review of the activities undertaken by Seafish during 2012/2013 and information on future developments.

Fisheries Management Issues Report

The Fisheries Management Issues Report summarises some of the current issues affecting the UK fishing industry. Information is collated from regional, UK and European sources and regular topics include discussions at the EU Fisheries Council meetings, official landings into the UK relative to allocated quotas and the extent of bans on fishing due to shellfish poisoning around the UK.

Understanding and responding to climate change in UK seafood (wild capture) - full report

The report concerns UK seafood wild capture supply chains reliant on domestic and international production. It covers major impacts from key climate change drivers, from production to processing, and sets out major areas of adaptation action.

2007 Economic Survey of the UK Fishing Fleet

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.

Aquaculture Hyperbooks Turbot On-growing Economic Model

These pages are a Microsoft Excel based economic modelling tool that will enable you to explore how the on-growing aspects of a turbot cultivation business may function. There is another model covering the hatchery aspects. Technical pages containing a wealth of information and advice on cultivating turbot can also be downloaded

Discarding in the English Channel, Western approaches, Celtic and Irish seas (ICES subarea VII)

Discarding is a common feature throughout global fisheries and of widespread management concern. The Centre for Environment, Fisheries and Aquaculture Science (CEFAS) catch and discard data collection programme has been conducting sampling operations on English and Welsh registered fishing vessels in the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES) subarea VII since 2002. Within this subarea, these vessels were found to mainly operate in the English Channel, Western approaches, Celtic and Irish sea. We present the findings of this work and estimate the annual quantities of discards (fish and cephalopods) in terms of numbers and weights between 2002 and 2005 Keywords: Discards; By-catch; English Channel; Western approaches; Celtic sea; Irish sea

Land application of shellfish by-products

Shellfish waste currently has few, if any readily available recycling outlets. Application of the waste to agricultural land as an organic manure has been identified as the lowest cost disposal route available to the majority of the seafood industry. An in-depth review of landspreading shellfish waste was carried out in 2006 to identify the possible benefits of using shellfish on land. This included an in-depth literature review, contacting people with experience of using shellfish waste on land, analysing some shellfish samples to assess their composition etc. The study found that shellfish could have benefit in land application for agricultural purposes and that it remained a viable outlet for shellfish waste providing compliance with legal constraints such as animal by-product legislation and waste management licensing is demonstrated. This report provides an overview of the information collected, including summarising shellfish properties and beneficial properties to land. It also provides an overview of how permission for the land application of shellfish by-products can be obtained.

Project Inshore - Stage 3 Strategic Sustainability Review Isles of Scilly Inshore Fisheries & Conervation Authority

This report presents stage 3 of Project Inshore where findings of stage 1’s data gathering on fisheries within each IFCA and the results of stage 2’s MSC pre-assessment conducted for fisheries around England’s coast (involving over 400 different species, stock and gear combinations) are considered to provide a Strategic Sustainability Review tailored to the Isles of Scilly IFCA.

Effects of electrofishing for Ensis spp. on benthic macrofauna, epifauna and fish species. SR652

This report summarises the results of experimental work carried out as part of “Design and Trials of Electrofishing System for Razorclams – FIFG 57437 and Seafish IPF funding project C85”. The aim of the project was to design and trial methods of harvesting Ensis spp. using electrical stimulus with the intention of providing a more environmentally benign alternative to existing hydraulic and toothed dredges. The results of this study demonstrate that the effects of electrofishing gear employing relatively low DC voltage and amperage can be effectively used in the harvest of Ensis spp. without serious negative effects on the epifaunal and macrofaunal benthic community.

Multi annual UK fishing fleet estimates 2010 - 2020

This dataset presents data on annual economic performance for the UK fishing fleet from 2010 to 2020. The estimates are calculated based on samples of fishing costs and earnings gathered by Seafish as part of the 2019 Annual Fleet Economic Survey.
