This publication fits more succinctly with SSA briefing in that we are through this publication,
1. Assistance with adding value to the dried seafood industry through assisting in providing information which can develop new potential products and processes and possibly improve on current forms.
2 Provide some guidance on how to manage and systemize some of the standards for quality production whilst mitigating against the potential environmental impact based on an approach that improves the best fit between supply and demand.
3. Finally providing information and advice on post-harvest technical and marketing issues associated with dried seafood production and marketing.
Final report
The Department of Primary Industries and Fisheries (DPI&F) was commissioned by Seafood Services Australia Ltd (SSA) to prepare an update of the publication "Evaluation of the Market for Dried Seafood 1993-96”. This was done as a desk study using data from State and Commonwealth governments’ officers in the field. The report takes the form of a short publication that can be used either as an insert in the original comprehensive report or as a stand alone booklet.
There is a short introduction to the considerations involved in setting up a dried seafood operation followed by an analysis of markets. The discussion concentrates on the three main exports for Australian dried seafood, Hong Kong, Singapore and Japan.
