Book Description
Excessive fishing capacity is largely responsible for the degradation of marine fisheries resources, for the dissipation of food production potential and for significant economic waste, especially manifest in the form of redundant fishing inputs. The globalization of this phenomenon and the impact of excessive fishing capacity on the biological and economic condition of many fisheries throughout the world have been a matter of increasing concern in recent years. This led FAO to organize a Technical Working Group on the Management of Fishing Capacity in La Jolla, USA, from 15 to 18 April 1998. Selected papers prepared as reference material for this meeting are presented in this FAO Fisheries Technical Paper. Chapter 1 reviews underlying economics and methods of control. Specific aspects of high seas fisheries are addressed in Chapter 2. Chapter 3 explores extensively the many issues raised in measuring fishing capacity and capacity utilization. Chapter 4 briefly discusses the difficulties associated with the assessment of fishing capacity at global level.

Book Description
Sharks are only a small proportion of world recorded fish landings, but they are a versatile and valuable resource. They sustain important fisheries in several countries and are a cheap but valuable source of protein for coastal communities dependent on subsistence fisheries. Sharks are exploited for their meat, fins, teeth, cartilage, liver and other internal organs. This report details species used and methods of preparation for various purposes.

Book Description
This report focuses primarily on the direct and indirect influences of fish trade and food security. It reviews in detail the positive and negative impacts of international fish trade on food security in low-income food-deficit countries. The main findings are that this trade has had a positive effect on food security, both through higher availability of fish for human consumption in developing countries and through higher income generated through trade. The report cautions, however, that sustainable resource management practices are a necessary condition for sustainable international trade. It also highlights the need for free and transparent trade and market policies to ensure that benefits from international trade are enjoyed by all segments of society.
