Passive acoustic techniques to monitor aggregations of sound producing fish species

The need to optimise spawning success and survival of offspring by fishes has resulted in the evolution of a vast array of reproductive strategies, such as spawning aggregations. A spawning aggregation is defined by Domeier and Colin (1997) as, “a group of con-specific fish gathered for the...

Harvest Strategy

Need

The West Australian domestic finfish industry faces continuing pressures in the face of rising costs of
production, lowered catch, economic considerations (eg value of Australian dollar) and competition. The
industry also faces the considerable challenge of distance. It is therefore paramount that harvest and
post-harvest strategies optimizes all facets of the supply chain to ensure the maximum profitability from
the harvested product. These strategies may be in relation to improved product quality or yields
(eg due to harvest management strategies, storage techniques or use of novel diagnostic etc tools), more
efficient use of waste, or better economic management
(eg choice of best harvest strategy to minimize costs, logistical interventions or defining optimal market
strategies). This project will initially involve consultation with retailers, processors and fishermen to
identify (by preliminary cost benefit analysis) the key target species where supply chain intervention is most
likely to improve profitability. These chains will then be analysed and possible interventions identified and
piloted to assess possible impacts on profitability.

Objectives

1. To use supply chain analysis and intervention strategies to increase profitability in at least two WA finfish supply chains,
2. To increase research capacity in finfish supply chain analysis.
3. To increase industry knowledge of and capacity to undertake supply chain analysis.

Need

There is a need to:

1. Develop low value Australian seafood options in order to give the Australian seafood consumer the chance to purchase local seafood at accessible price points.

2. Evaluate the sensory characteristsics, product acceptability and perception of Australian Salmon from a consumer perspective. The attributes evaluated will include, but not be limited to, taste, texture, appearance, mouth feel portion size, etc. This information should relate to pricing and potential product forms that appeal to consumers. This will demonstrate if the species has the potential to be a sustainable, consumer commercial fishery. There is currently no consumer research information of this type available.

3. Show what attributes consumers value in seafood.

4. Understand the composition profiling, nutritional values and bio chemical factors that:

a) influence the spoiling of desirable characteristics;
b) influence the overall degradation of this particular species

This will fill gaps in the current research that is being undertaken.

Summary

There are many different factors that affect fish purchasing decisions. These range from personal preferences for sensory characteristics to environmental and financial concerns. In understanding why a particular species of fish is or is not popular in the market place all these influencing factors need to be considered.

The aim of this study is to gain some understanding of the factors that influence consumers when considering purchasing Australian salmon.
