In addition, a new national work plan for the period 2025-2027 has been prepared, which will form the basis for the future development of data collection processes.

Key results

The main results of the project include:

Increasing the efficiency of data collection, which will enable the representative collection of economic and social data of fish farmers.

The results of data collection will lead to more informed policy-making, which will help the sustainable development of the fisheries sector.

Determining the annual volume of domestic fish consumption per capita and the production value of the fisheries sector.
