Fisheries and Resources Monitoring System


Fishery: A Fishery is an activity leading to the harvesting of fish, within the boundaries of a defined area. The fishery concept fundamentally gathers indication of human fishing activity, including from economic, management, biological/environmental and technological viewpoints.

Different thematic approaches are envisaged, according to the disciplinary viewpoint prevailing in the identification of fishery units when a fisheries inventory is compiled:

Fishery Resource
Jurisdictional
Production System
Fishery Management Unit
Fishing Activity
Access Rights
