Notes
Fisheries all over the world are reaching levels of exploitation which are at or over the limit of their sustainable exploitation. For this reason there is a need to ensure that the fish which is caught reaches the eventual consumer with minimal losses. Decision-makers in government and industry, who are concerned about reducing wastage of harvested fish, will find in Post-harvest fisheries development a guide to handling, preservation, processing and quality, a layman's guide to all aspects of post-harvest fisheries science and technology. This is an extensively revised version of a popular, two-volume report published in the early 1980s by the Tropical Products Institute, entitled Fish handling, preservation and processing in the tropics. Modern and traditional techniques of fish handling and preservation are described and information of relevance to the marketing of fish.
