Seatood market studies for the introduction of new aquaculture products



Aquaculture production in the Mediterranean has expanded rapidly over the last years. Production techniques have progressed as a result of efforts by the private sector and the scientific community. However, in order to but problems have concurrently been faced. To deal with emerging issues and to maintain momentum, regional cooperation was required to effectively tackle future development of the sector. Four international networks, involving partnerships between UN organizations (FAO), Mediterranean regional (CIHEAM) and national institutions have been established under the aegis of the Committee on Aquaculture of the General Fisheries Commission for the Mediterranean (GFCM). These networks are TECAM (Technology of Aquaculture in the Mediterranean), SELAM (Socio-economic and Legal Aspects of Aquaculture in the Mediterranean EAM (Environment and Aquaculture in the Mediterranean) and SIPAM (System of Information for the Promotion of Aquaculture in the Mediterranean). At present, subject activities covered by the TECAM network include nutrition, genetics and breeding, production technology, health management and species diversification. The SELAM network includes marketing production economics and aquaculture planning. Activities related to environmental aspects previously covered by the EAM network, have, since 1999, been covered by the TECAM and SELAM networks.

Both TECAM and SELAM networks are coordinated by the International Centre for Advanced Mediterranean Agronomic Studies (CIHEAM) which has been organizing and implementing its activities through the Mediterranean Agronomic Institute of Zaragoza (IAMZ) in close collaboration with FAO Fisheries Department and other Mediterranean institutions.

The SELAM Seminar on "Seafood Market Studies for the Introduction of New Aquaculture Products was jointly organised by the EU-Concerted Action MASMANAP, the Mediterranean Agronomic Institute of Zaragoza (CIHEAM-IAMZ) and the Fisheries Department of the FAO. It was held in Zaragoza (Spain) from 21 to 22 June 2001, and was attended by 48 experts from university and research institutes producers organizations industry, and national administration from the following countries - Albania, Belgium, Cyprus, France, Greece, Italy, Lebanon, Morocco, Norway, Portugal, Romania, Spain, Tunisia, Turkey, and the United Kingdom.

The Seminar was organised at the end of MASMANAP Concerted Action with the aim of disseminating its results and it is also the continuation of previous activities of the SELAM Network in this field. The main objective of MASMANAP was to develop a common market study methodology for all European countries in order to assess new and potential outlets for aquaculture products. During this seminar the evolution of the main European seafood markets was reviewed. Relevant market studies were discussed and the project results used to identify important seafood consumption data required to support targeted market studies. Research priorities were also underlined in order to obtain relevant data learn how to analyse them and recommendations were proposed for a seafood market study with the aim of introducing new aquaculture products.

The present publication compiles the main results of the MASMANAP Concerted Action, and includes selected contributions from the SELAM Seminar. It includes manuscripts of the presentations (reviews and technical papers) made at the Seminar, a report on the main conclusions and recommendations of the Seminar, and a set of Country Reports on Seafood Consumption and General Trends in Demand, not only from project partners (France, Greece, Italy, Norway, Portugal and United Kingdom), but also from other Mediterranean countries, i.e. Cyptus, Morocco and Turkey.
