Developmental trends and aquaculture perspectives in Greece

Developmental trends and aquaculture perspectives in Greece Summary A total of 109 Greek aquaculture projects were approved by the EC Commission between 1987 and 1991 under Regulation 4028/86, of which 65 were for sea‐bass/sea‐bream and 24 for mussels. The total production capacity of these projects was 13,483 tonnes, 13,025,000 sea‐bass/sea‐bream fingerlings and 600,000 trout juveniles. The total expenditure for grants was 12.1 billions drachmas. The geographic distribution of the projects approved by both the EC Commission and the National Developmental Law 1262/1982 (incentives for investments in Greece) are discussed in the text. A cumulative employment figure for a total of 330 aquaculture approved/established projects in Greece is about 5,500 jobs, created m remote areas where there are few other sources of employment. Total aquaculture production (excluding lagoons) increased from 2,200 tonnes in 1980 to 7,550 tonnes in 1990. A trend model, fitted to the total 1980–1990 production, predicted 10,507 tonnes for 1992.

Abstract

Summary A total of 109 Greek aquaculture projects were approved by the EC Commission between 1987 and 1991 under Regulation 4028/86, of which 65 were for sea‐bass/sea‐bream and 24 for mussels. The total production capacity of these projects was 13,483 tonnes, 13,025,000 sea‐bass/sea‐bream fingerlings and 600,000 trout juveniles. The total expenditure for grants was 12.1 billions drachmas. The geographic distribution of the projects approved by both the EC Commission and the National Developmental Law 1262/1982 (incentives for investments in Greece) are discussed in the text. A cumulative employment figure for a total of 330 aquaculture approved/established projects in Greece is about 5,500 jobs, created m remote areas where there are few other sources of employment. Total aquaculture production (excluding lagoons) increased from 2,200 tonnes in 1980 to 7,550 tonnes in 1990. A trend model, fitted to the total 1980–1990 production, predicted 10,507 tonnes for 1992. The prospects of aquaculture in Greece as well as conflict with tourism and fishing are also discussed.
