Fishery Statistical Bulletin 2014.pdf (2.419Mb)

The information mentioned also forms the basis for understanding the status and condition of the fishery resources in the region. The bulletin is intended to present reliable and comparable fisheries statistics for the Southeast Asian region with standardized definitions and classifications. SEAFDEC recognizes that fisheries statistics data and information are useful to the AMSs and SEAFDEC as a basis for creating appropriate policy to support sustainable fisheries development and management in the Southeast Asian region.

Over the years, publication by SEAFDEC of the annual Fisheries Statistical Bulletin has been successfully realized due to the continuous efforts of the AMSs to provide the most up-to-date national fisheries data and information. In addition, the information provided in this edition of the Bulletin includes fishery production, fishing fleet, fishing gear, fish price and employment in fisheries. For their cooperation and support, especially in providing the necessary information that went into this Bulletin, SEAFDEC is indeed very grateful to the national agencies and relevant staff of the AMSs.

SEAFDEC also looks forward to the continued and strengthened collaboration between the AMSs, particularly on the collection of fisheries data to improve future editions of the Bulletin. With such continued support, SEAFDEC would be assured of the sustainability of the Bulletin as a tool to improve the sustainable development of the respective fisheries in the AMSs.

Production by value represents the value of the products corresponding to the landing (average monthly weighted value, where available). When a unit other than gross tons is used to measure the size of the boat, this must be converted to gross tons. Although the method of measuring fishing boat tonnage varies from country to country, the statistics should be based on national measurement standards.

The fishing unit statistics are mainly used to consider the limitation of the number of fishing units for fisheries management. In order to facilitate reporting of the statistics on fishing units, please refer to Appendix 4 for the details. The statistics on fishermen are generally obtained from the Marine Fisheries Census of the Member States.

Production can be reported by species in terms of number of larvae, fingerlings, juveniles etc. used focusing on two main objectives viz. they are standardized in accordance with FAO's Principal Fishing Areas, the boundaries of which are defined in consultation. with international fisheries agencies taking into account various considerations, including:. i) Border of national regions and natural divisions of oceans and seas; ii) The border of adjacent statistical fisheries bodies already established in intergovernmental conventions and treaties; v) Longitude and latitude grid system; vi).

Inland Fishing Areas

Fishing areas of the Southeast Asia region, established for fisheries statistical purposes, consist of inland and marine fishing areas, which is consistent with the definition and classification of hunting fisheries.

Marine Fishing Areas

Indian Ocean, Eastern)

In the marine waters between Sumatra and Java, there are areas bounded by a line beginning on the coast of Sumatra at the boundary between

At marine waters between Sumatra and Java, the areas bounded by a line commencing on the coast of Sumatra at the boundary between

Under Fisheries Zone 71, marine fisheries statistics such as production, species, fishing gear, fishing vessels, fishing units, etc., will be collected and reported within the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) of each country. There are 8 Southeast Asian countries identified under Fishing Area 71, namely Brunei Darussalam, Cambodia, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam. To facilitate the reporting of fishing statistics from each country, the fishing area can be divided into 11 sub-areas, corresponding to the existing EEZ of these countries.

Subarea 71a: Marine fishing zone of Thailand (Gulf of Thailand) Subarea 71b: Marine fishing zone of Cambodia. Subarea 71c: Marine fishing zone of Vietnam (Southeast Vietnam) Subarea 71d: Marine fishing zone of Vietnam (Southeast Vietnam). Subarea 71e: Marine fishing zone of Malaysia (East coast of Peninsular Malaysia) Subarea 71f: Marine fishing zone of Malaysia (Sarawak).

Subarea 71g: Wilayah penangkapan ikan laut Malaysia (Sabah) Subarea 71h: Wilayah penangkapan ikan laut Singapura. Subarea 71k : Daerah penangkapan ikan laut Indonesia (Sumatera Timur, Jawa Utara, Bali-Nusa Tenggara, Kalimantan Barat Daya, Kalimantan Timur, Sulawesi Selatan, Sulawesi Utara, Maluku-Papua).

Because each country has different legal definitions, the following table shows the classification of small-scale and commercial fisheries of countries in the region. Indonesia Fishing using a boat, using a non-motor boat, with an outboard engine of <5 GT, or an inboard engine of <5 GT. a) Fishing using an outboard engine of 5-30 GT or an inboard engine of size 5-30 GT. Malaysia Traditional fisheries: small-scale fisheries using traditional fishing gear (i.e. excluding trawls and purse seines) with vessels of less than 40 GRT operating in all zones, concentrated in zone 1.

Commercial fishing: Medium and large-scale fishing using commercial fishing gear such as trawls and purse seines. Myanmar Coastal Fishing: Vessels less than 30 ft in length or with an engine of less than 12 HP operating in Zone 1. Industrial Fishing: Vessels over 30 ft in length or with an engine of more than 12 HP operating in Zone 1 2.

Philippines Municipal fishing: small-scale coastal fishing with vessels of less than 3 GT operating in Zone 1 and 2.. a) Small-scale commercial fishing: from 3.1 to 20 GT vessels operating in Zone 2; it can also operate within 10.1-15 km (within Zone 1) if authorized by the concerned Local Government Unit (LGU).

GT operating in Zone 1 Large-scale fisheries: vessels of more GT operating in Zone 2

Countries Fishing Zone 1 Fishing Zone 2 Fishing Zone 3 Fishing Zone 4 Brunei Darussalam From the coastline to. From the coastline up to 30 m deep in the northern and southern areas, up to 50 m deep in the central area.

In terms of fisheries statistics, no country in the region collects the data in such individual groups. However, countries in the region have agreed to report production separately of: a) Anchovy temnet; and b) Fish snout. Operated from a boat, they are usually used on the bottom, where they are pulled into the water by two lines, usually very long, to ensure that as many fish as possible are driven or chased towards the opening of the net.

Two wings extend to increase the area covered and to guide the fish in the net path to the cod. Fish that try to force their way through the net wall become sprouted or entangled in the mesh. The migratory fish become entangled between two layers of nets and not in the mesh where a combination of different types of nets is used.

A trap refers to a device that is placed or placed in the water for a certain period, regardless of the type of materials used in their construction. Given its functionality, this set of traps stays in the water for a long time at least until the end of the fishing season.

By country, Indonesia reported the highest fishery production in 2014 in terms of volume accounting for approximately 48.8% of the total fishery production of Southeast Asia. Percentage of the subsectors' contribution to Southeast Asia's fisheries production in 2014 (left in quantity; right in value). In terms of quantity, the total production of sea capture fisheries of the Southeast Asian countries during 2010-2014 indicated that Indonesia contributed the highest production to the region's total.

An overview of the region's production volume from marine fisheries in 2014 can be drawn from Fig. Indonesia's production, as the third highest producer in the region, consisted mainly of striped snakehead (Chana striata) which accounted for about 8.7% of the country's total production from inland capture fisheries. In 2014, the region's total production from aquaculture accounted for about 53.4% of the region's total fisheries production in volume and 40.7% in value.

In 2014, the total production from brine accounted for approximately 14.0% of the total production from aquaculture in the region (Figure 7). Production of gracilaria seaweed (Gracilaria spp.), mainly produced by Indonesia, had the largest volume, accounting for 35.6% of the region's total brackish production.
