The consumption of fish and fish products in the Asia-Pacific region based on household surveys

This study, carried out by the Asia Pacific Fishery Commission, examines household survey data pertaining to fish and fish product consumption in 30 countries across the region. The information is also compared and contrasted with consumption estimates obtained through Food Balance Sheets. It is hoped that this publication can help shine the light on consumption patterns of fish and fisheries products at household level as well as some of the reasons for the differences between household survey and FBS derived figures. It is also hoped that the presentation of this data demonstrates the contribution it can make to more informed policy and decision making.
