Abstract

Most macroeconomic indicators for the fisheries sector in the 2009-2018 period records the upward movement. In ten years, cacthes have increased by 20%, export by 77%, and value of production in the last five observed years by 30%. Aquaculture is the branch of fisheries with the highest economic potential. It has a positive impact on employment, income, the supply of high value food products with increased added value through tourism and exports, and thus on the socio-economic development of island and rural communities.
