On Saturday, May 31, researchers Paulo Mora and Andrés Olguín presented the results of the Benthic Crustacean Fisheries Monitoring Program in the Los Lagos and Aysén regions at the monthly meeting of the Ancud crab fishing production committee.
On this occasion, Paulo presented results from the king crab fishery, and Andrés presented results from the marble crab fishery in the Los Lagos Region.
Claudio Pichaud, President of the Ancud Jaiberos Committee, stated, “The results presented by IFOP are relevant to the knowledge of artisanal fishers who extract these resources and help us understand what we are doing well and where we can improve.”
Paulo Mora, Head of the Monitoring Project, said, “These opportunities are crucial both for the fishers, who can see their contribution of information translated into these results, and for us as researchers, who can receive validation and feedback on the knowledge generated around these fisheries.”
