Fish production and marketing in the mediterranean coastal lagoons
Tolon, T. (Ege University, Izmir (Turkey). Fac. of Fisheries)Emiroglu, D.
There are 47 saline lagoons located in whole Turkish coasts and 23 percent of them are located in the Mediterranean Region. The recent studies showed that only 6 lagoons are left in Mediterranean Region, which are productive. Mediterranean lagoons produce 40 percent of total fish production of coastal lagoons. Mullet species (Mogul sp., Liza sp.) are being captured in all lagoons. Beside these species, juvenile sea bream (Sparus aurata), eel (Anguila anguila) and crab (Callinectes sapidus) are being captured from Mediterranean Lagoons. The distribution channel has to be improved in order to satisfy the lagoon management as financement aspects and to improve the production. Also some kinds of improvement studies like valliculture, deepening, and seafood-processing units are advised.
