t | FAO is the only source of comprehensive global fishery statistics and most reviews of the state of world fisheries, past trends and future prospects rely on FAO statistics. FAO analyses these statistics in order to monitor many aspects of world fisheries such as fishery production from capture fisheries and aquaculture, production and trade of fishery commodities, fish consumption, fishery fleets, and employment in fisheries. On the basis of these analyses, FAO prepares advice on fisheries policy to member countries. - State of World Fisheries and Aquaculture (SOFIA)
is the Fisheries and Aquaculture Department's premier advocacy document. It is published every two years with the purpose of providing policy-makers, civil society and those who derive their livelihood from the sector a comprehensive, objective and global view of capture fisheries and aquaculture, including associated policy issues.
