Assessment and management of seafood safety and quality

FAO Fisheries Technical Paper No. 444
Rome, 2004, 288 pp.
ISBN 92-5-104954-8
ISSN 0429-9345 TC/M/Y4743/E
$35.00

(previously released in October 2003 and withdrawn) This paper compiles the state of knowledge on fish safety and quality with the view of providing a succinct yet comprehensive resource book for risk and fish quality managers. After an introduction to world fish production and consumption and the developments in safety and quality systems, it provides a detailed review of the hazards that cause public health concerns in fish and fish products. Several chapters are devoted to risk mitigation and management tools, with a detailed description of the requirements for the implementation of the Good Hygienic and Manufacturing Practices (GHP/GMP) of the Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) System and of the monitoring programmes to control biotoxins, pathogenic bacteria and viruses, and chemical pollutants. Chapters on the use of microbiological criteria, the use of the HACCP approach to target quality aspects other than safety matters, predictive microbiology, traceability and examples of food safety objectives complete the document.

Guidelines on the collection of demographic and socio-economic information on fishing communities for use in coastal and aquatic resources management

FAO Fisheries Technical Paper No. 439
Rome, 2004, 132 pp.
ISBN 92-5-105031-7
ISSN 0429-9345 TC/M/Y5055/E
$32.00

These guidelines specify key indicators for the identification of demographic issues in coastal area management and for monitoring the impact of management measures on the socio-economic well-being of coastal and fishing communities. The guidelines also identify data sources and methods for the collection of data. Case studies on the use of demographic data in coastal area management in Italy and the United States of America, and a summary of the proceedings of a regional workshop on the use of demographic data in coastal area management in the Philippines and other Southeast and South Asian countries provide practical examples of how demographic indicators are used.

Health management and biosecurity maintenance in white shrimps (Penaeus vannamei) hatcheries in Latin America

FAO Fisheries Technical Paper No. 450
Rome, 2004, 68 pp.
ISBN 92-5-105022-8
ISSN 0429-9345 TC/M/Y5040/E
$12.00

This publication provides technical guidance for the effective and responsible operation of shrimp hatcheries in Latin America. The document was compiled through an extensive consultative process undertaken from 2001 to 2003 that involved inputs from government-designated national coordinators, regional and international experts, representatives from several intergovernmental organizations, private sector representatives and FAO. This process was made possible through the FAO Regional Technical Cooperation Programme project - Assistance to health management of shrimp culture in Latin America: TCP/RLA/0071 (A)- - which involved the participation of 14 countries of the region, several intergovernmental organizations, shrimp hatchery operators and farmers, and individual experts. It is envisaged that this document will provide a firm basis for the improvement of the health and quality of hatchery-produced Penaeus vannamei postlarvae in Latin America.
