Abstract

Ensuring a vibrant fisheries sector is extremely important for the developing and less developed countries (‘LDCs’), as the sector is a major source of income, employment and foreign exchange earnings for these economies. It has been reported that approximately 40 per cent of global fishery production is exported, and nearly half of the international trade is attributed to developing countries’ exports. Moreover, the small-scale fisheries play a considerable role in developing countries, unlike their developed counterparts.
