Value chain is a cornerstone of sustainable fisheries development, linking production to consumption while fostering economic growth and resilience. By integrating modern practices in harvesting, processing, and marketing, value chain management enhances efficiency, reduces waste, and ensures quality. It empowers communities, especially small-scale producers, to access markets, secure fair prices, and contribute to food security. This approach not only boosts livelihoods but also promotes environmental stewardship, creating a sustainable and inclusive fisheries ecosystem.
