Responsible harvesting of underutilised fishery resources
Not Available In order to fill in the supply-demand gap for fish protein, in the context of downward trend in production from the conventional fish stocks, there is an imperative need to locate unconventional and underutilised fishery resources.

The decadal average (2006-2015) catch of myctophids is 8,284 t, ranging between 15 t (2006) and 21,393 t (2011) (FAO, 2017).
