| Publisher Description: Fisheries and aquaculture, and their related industries, play an essential role in the livelihoods of millions around the world - about 520 million people depend on the sector. Vital to the poorest, fisheries and aquaculture contribute significantly to world food security and account for over US$85.9 billion in international trade. Based on the broad board of expertise of the FAO Fisheries Department, the "World Fisheries and Aquaculture Atlas CD-ROM" presents a comprehensive and global view of marine and inland capture fisheries and aquaculture. This edition features a rich glossary, fact sheets, geographic profiles, illustrations, graphs, maps, and major FAO publications. |
