    Key Features. Seafood Industry Value Chain Analysis. Cod, Haddock and Nephrops

    This study provides a close look at the UK seafood value chain for the species cod (Gadus morhua), haddock (Gadus aeglefinus) and nephrops (Nephrops norvegicus). This report treats each value chain separately, and the main findings from each analysis can be found below. In addition, the key points extracted from the interviews held with industry players and the implications of the main findings for the major stakeholders in this study are presented here. When seen as a whole, these observations provide a background for understanding some of the developments that are observed in the seafood industry today for the selected species. All figures presented are for year 2002.

    FS7-11.08 Nov 2008 Options to improve catch quality on inshore vessels

    The catch quality from vessels landing daily should be of superior freshness to the catch from vessels fishing longer trips. However many small boats have very little onboard equipment to chill and stroe their catch. This often leads to losses in catch quality despite the catch being oly one day old and appearing very fresh. This fact sheet looks at the benefits of using alternative methods to chill and maintain temperature control including insulated tubs, insulating the hold, 'slush ice' and by using insulated containers on deck.

    FS26_06.09 Maximising Profits in Shellfish Cooking Using Time Temperature Indicators (TTI’s)

    Cooking is the traditional process by which many foods are made safe before they are eaten. Heating to a sufficiently high temperature destroys any harmful micro-organisms that may be present. Cooking may be required by law or used to facilitate shelling or shucking. Cooking may also be used to produce desirable ready to eat products with a longer storage life, by inactivating spoilage enzymes and bacteria naturally present on the raw material. Time Temperature Indicators (TTI’s) are emerging as a more efficient and cost effective way to measure the degree of cooking received by the product. The Seafish Industry Project Fund (IPF) funded Campden BRI to investigate and develop suitable TTI’s for the continuous cooking processes, such those used to cook crab and prawns.

    Seafish Waste Survey 2004

    The survey was conducted between 30 November 2004 and 3 December 2004. The purpose of this survey was to: 1. Quantify the amount of shellfish and finfish waste being generated by the processing industry on a regional basis. 2. Identify the methods of waste disposal currently being used. 3. Quantify the current costs of disposal. 4. Identify regions where problems are being encountered (or are likely to encountered) in the disposal of waste when the Animal By-Products legislation is enforced. 160 sea fish processing companies (representing 30% of all such companies) from both the shellfish and finfish sectors and located throughout Scotland, England and Northern Ireland were selected at random and contacted by telephone. The interviewers used a questionnaire (appendix 1) to structure the interviews and to ensure that all the relevant information was obtained.

    Water Framework Directive - Technical Briefing

    The Water Framework Directive (WFD) will revolutionise the way that the water environment is managed and protected. It replaces today’s piecemeal legislation with integrated management of water quality, quantity, physical habitat and ecology. The WFD has far-reaching implications for fisheries managers and the industry. Its main effect will be an improvement in environmental quality – but it may also result in new controls on fishing and new duties for regulators. This technical briefing summarises the key feature of the WFD, highlights key issues, and gives the background information to help industry find out more about it.
