Recursos marinhos de Moçambique

This work aims to be a systematic description of marine fisheries of Mozambique, analysing old and new data. The various fish resources were divided in crustaceans, fish and other resources. The latest revision was presented during the Mozambique/NORAD Seminar on marine resources (1984), which also included fishing potential estimates. Mozambique does not have a national system of statistical data collection that covers all fisheries and this affects in particular the artisanal sector. The industrial and semi-industrial fisheries, however, are well covered and produce reliable data on catch and effort for resources evaluation.
