Summary

In 1985, CSIRO applied for funding from the Fishing Industry Research Trust Account to undertake a research program to investigate the commercial scallop (Pecten fumatus) in Bass Strait with the aim of providing resource assessments to guide and assist in the management of the scallop fishery.
