Abstract

Despite the name, the targets of fisheries include not only fish, but also other sea animals, invertebrates, and algae. There are about 3.5 million fishing vessels (Mamin 2011). In 2012, 79.7 million tons were harvested in seas and 11.6 million tons, in inland waters (The state of world fisheries 2014).
