Total production Total world production of fisheries products is continuing its steady increase. The European Union (EU) accounts for about 5% of this total, making it the third largest world producer after China and Peru. Within the EU, the largest producers by volume are Denmark and Spain. With the accession of the 10 new Member States to the Union in May 2004, the total production of fisheries products of the European Union will increase by about one tenth.

Total catches Total catches in the European Union (EU) as in the rest of the world are decreasing, as a result of the depletion of a number of fish stocks. Most EU catches are taken in waters bordering the European Union such as the Atlantic Northeast and the Mediterranean. Pelagic species such as herring, sprat and mackerel are the mainstay of EU catches. Denmark alone accounts for about a quarter of the European Union s catches.

Landings Landings in European Union (EU) ports continue decreasing, mainly due to the overexploitation of some major European fish stocks. While the volume of European landings has decreased by about 3% since 2000, their value has increased by over 9% and consequently the average price of fisheries products in the EU has increased from 1.2/kg to 1.39/kg over the same period. These landings represent the value and weight of fisheries products landed in ports of EU Member States by all vessels, without distinction of origin.

Jobs The number of people employed in the fishery sector is not limited to the number of fishermen at sea. The aquaculture and processing sectors, as well as ancillary industries such as marketing, distribution and shipbuilding are also important sources of employment. These activities play a significant role in regions where alternatives are scarce. The participation of women in the fishery sector is most important in the processing sector where in some regions women make up more than 50% of the work force.

Fleet The overcapacity of the European Union fleet has put considerable pressure on fish stocks. The European Union has therefore adopted policies to reduce fleet capacity and create a better balance between fishing capacity and fish resources. In 2002, the total number of vessels stood at about 90 000, down from 100 000 four years earlier. This downward trend also applies to other characteristics of the fleet, such as power and tonnage.

Aquaculture Aquaculture, which represents 33% of the total value of EU fishery production and 17% of its volume, continues to play an important role in alleviating the pressure on fishery resources. The importance of aquaculture varies in the EU: in some Member States the value of farmed fisheries products is greater than that of landed products while in others aquaculture represents an important part of their total production. The species most widely produced in the EU are blue mussel, rainbow trout and salmon. Total aquaculture production by Member State (2001) (volume in tonnes and value in thousands of EUR) 16

Consumption Fisheries products play an important role in the European diet as a valuable source of protein and as a healthy food. Consumption within the European Union (EU) varies, from a high 61.1 kg per head per year in Portugal to a low 11.4 kg/head/year in Austria. The average EU consumption stands at 24.5 kg/head/year, considerably higher than the world average of 16 kg/head/year.

Community aid To achieve the objectives of the Common Fisheries Policy (CFP) the European Union provides financial support to the fishing industry through the Financial Instrument for Fisheries Guidance (FIFG). The European Union aid is targeted towards the following areas: vessel decommissioning, construction of new vessels until the end of 2004, modernisation, aquaculture, fishing port facilities, processing and marketing, and socioeconomic measures, among others.

Processing sector The value of fisheries products produced by the processing industry is 80 % higher than the combined value of landings and aquaculture production. Firms in the sector tend to be small, usually with 20 employees or less. The main categories of processed fisheries products include preparations and canned fish, crustaceans and molluscs.

External trade While the European Union (EU) imports more fisheries products than it produces, the value and volume of its exports are of considerable size. Indeed, the European Union exported about 5.7 million tonnes of fisheries products in 2001. Since 1993, the total volume of European Union exports has increased by about 45% while the value of these exports has doubled. EU imports and exports consist mostly of fresh, chilled or frozen fish.
