Spiny Lobsters : Fisheries and Culture, Hardback Book

Spiny Lobsters : Fisheries and Culture Hardback

Hardback

Description

Spiny lobsters are among the worlda s most valuable and highly prized seafoods, captured and marketed in over 90 countries.

Demand for spiny lobsters has escalated in the past two decades, spurring the need both for better management and for research on which to base that management. Spiny lobster aquaculture, however, now appears to be a real possibility, some countries have already approved the legislation, and it may be only a few years before this becomes the major source.

The book opens with a brief review of the general biology, distribution, fishing techniques etc. but the major emphasis is on the latest management strategies, developments in aquaculture, marketing and economics.

A special feature of the book will be detailed reviews of the spiny lobster fishery, research activities and marketing process in Japan, where customers are willing to pay more than US$50 per pound for live lobsters.
