Sausage of pompano fish Peprilus medius on the Ecuadorian coast
Main Article Content
Abstract
Ecuador's pelagic fishery consists mainly of sardines, anchovies, and mackerel. Most of the canned anchovies and sardines are prepared for the export market, and the rest is used to produce fishmeal for poultry feed. The pelagic fishing fleet consists of 152 vessels operating up to 70 nautical miles (nm) offshore. Ecuador produces large quantities of fishmeal, most of which is used as feed in shrimp farms.
